    I used my Bentley manual, but there are multiple posts here and on YouTube.

    You'll see references to using a paper clip or an ammeter to bypass a relay to run the CHRS pump and that works fine if you're careful--don't short out a fuse or run the pump too long (30s max). I used the MiniVCI, a powerful DIY tool that's relatively inexpensive ($25) and runs on a Win7 laptop.
