Transfer case oil change nt520

Tried to reset transfer case adaptation with foxwell nt 520 and it said I had to turn on terminal 15 . I said ok to proceed and then it said it failed. I am asuming because I don't know what terminal 15 is. So it looks like it can do it but not sure how. Any help?

Terminal 15 = your ignition switch on (engine not running)

Let us know how it works on the reset. I have a foxwell too and it could never calibrate the transfer case correctly. It could do a reset but not a true Calibration which is a much more involved process. Only ISTA did it correctly and solved the issues I was having. This is a on a 50i though which has a slightly different transfer case then other models.

It did a oil reset and said it was also successful on resetting the adaptations. It has been a week so far so good. Not sure how I can tell wether it really reset them or not
