Initiate a forced DPF regen
A forced DPF regen is performed when a diagnostic scan tool, such as the OTR Reset Tool, starts the regen process. The DPF soot load could be too high for a passive or active regen to occur, meaning you’ll need to perform a forced DPF regen.

How the OTR Reset Tool helps with high soot notifications & derates
When a failure occurs, this will prompt you a “high soot” notification on your dash and will derate your vehicle to seek service. You’d need to take the filter off the vehicle and send it to an approved DPF cleaning shop so they can assess how badly it’s clogged. If the filter is a good candidate for cleaning, then you’d perform that service and reinstall the filter on your vehicle.
This is where the reset tool comes in handy — because your filter is clean, but your engine controllers don’t know it yet! The OTR Reset Tool resets the system so your engine knows it’s operating with a cleaned filter.

Disclaimer:
- This product will not bypass the operation of any emission control component. This tool is used to reset the modules after replacing aftertreatment components or initiating a forced regeneration.
- You can use your display to find out what your fault codes mean or OTR Diagnostics. Some heavy-duty trucks will not allow you to view your fault codes. In such a case you will need to plug into a diagnostic software to read the DTC or use OTR Diagnostics.
- Having a failed part will not remove the derate. You must repair the issue to reset the derate.

Cheaper to own than just 1 tow!
Clears the derates to get you home or to a repair facility. May get extras for the fleet! Also clears MIL (NOT the CEL) and forced regen. Great tool! Got one for BLACK and one for GREEN....watch early 2016s, build dates of 12/15 and prior are BLACK plug, Get it! Or sit.....

Save 1 Tow and it pays for itself...easily!

OTR Reset Tool and Customer Service
Great and the support around instructions, problem solving and available help is simply amazing! OTR is truly people first and genuinely interested in making your life better. Thank you for a great product and an even better experience!!

OTR Product Tool
The OTR tool works so well that I recommend this product to all my friends that own their trucks. As an owner operator some shops charge upwards of $350.00 + just to tell you it's just a ghost code and all it needs is to clear it. Do that twice and the product has paid for itself. Not only does it clear derates but it allows you to regen your unit on command helping owners to control soot levels in the DPF systems. Salute to you OTR team!!!



Great Tool!
Very happy. It performed as advertised.

A++
Excellent tool. Feel confident going down the road knowing I have the reset tool.in my arsenal.

Bought otr tool.
Nice &quality looking tool in case. Will keep with me for an emergency when I need to use it! Hopefully I won't, but if &when I do, hope it works like it promises! Fingers these emissions are a $money taker for truckers, government should offer rebates/free def filters/free diagnostics since they are the ones made this happen! Ridiculous government control! Everyone else making money on backs of truckers! Surprise.

Definitely recommend
Very easy to use. Saves a ton of time and money. Peace of mind being out on the road. Able to replace sensors, then clear codes and force regen. If you do your own work, a must have.

The best tool Trucker Catman1125
It is idiot proof worth every penny going to purchase the other tool in a few weeks. This tool has allowed me to keep running until I can get it to a shop. This tool is a game changer.

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Insurance
I have not used the device as of yet. I got it as an insurance policy. Therefore I cannot say good or bad about device. I believe it will do what I'm wanting it to do. If I never have to use the device that's still cheap insurance,

Hi Jim, we're glad to hear that you like the security our tools give you while you're out on the road! Aside from being there for emergencies, you can also use our tools for maintenance! You can try forcing a regen once a month to prolong DPF life, or you can use the live data function to monitor the life of components on your truck so that you can stay ahead of the curve if it comes to needing replacement parts without having a breakdown on the road.
