Hello,

Here is what is said about the service, and I have included instructions in the images below.

To bleed the clutch hydraulic system on your 2015 RAM PROMASTER with an automated manual transmission, you will need a scan tool that is capable of accessing the vehicle's onboard computer to activate the hydraulic pump and solenoid valves that operate the system. The Xtool D8 and Innova 5160RS are both high-end scan tools that should be capable of performing the bleeding procedure for your vehicle, as they have advanced features such as bi-directional control and ABS bleeding. However, it is always recommended to check with the scanner manufacturer to ensure that the scan tool is compatible with your specific make and model.

If you're looking for a more affordable option, you might consider the Foxwell NT624 Elite or the Launch X431 V+. Both of these scan tools are highly rated and offer a wide range of features, including the ability to perform the bleeding procedure for your clutch hydraulic system.

Check out the images (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
