Step 3: Check ECU Status

After completing the wiring connection:

1. Tap ECU Info

2. Tap Read DTC


The device will detect the fault codes stored in the airbag module and indicate that crash data is present.

Next, tap Erase DTC.

At this stage, the operation will fail because the crash record still exists in the ECU.


Step 4: Clear Crash Data

Tap Erase Crash.

Press START to begin the procedure.

The OBDSTAR P50 will process the airbag module and display a message indicating that the crash data has been successfully cleared.


Follow the on-screen instructions:

1. Turn the ignition OFF.

2. Wait approximately 30 seconds.

3. Turn the ignition ON again.


Step 5: Clear and Verify DTCs

After the crash data has been removed:

1. Tap Erase DTC

2. Confirm that the device displays Erase DTC Success

3. Tap Read DTC again


Verify that all DTCs have been successfully cleared and no crash records remain in the airbag ECU.
