SAFETY FIRST

SAFETY FIRST!
This manual describes common test procedures used by experienced
service technicians. Many test procedures require precautions to avoid
accidents that can result in personal injury, and/or damage to your
vehicle or test equipment. Always read your vehicle's service manual
and follow its safety precautions before and during any test or service
procedure. ALWAYS observe the following general safety precautions:
When an engine is running, it produces carbon monoxide, a
toxic and poisonous gas. To prevent serious injury or death
from carbon monoxide poisoning, operate the vehicle ONLY
in a well-ventilated area.

To protect your eyes from propelled objects as well as hot

or caustic liquids, always wear approved safety eye
protection.

When an engine is running, many parts (such as the coolant

fan, pulleys, fan belt etc.) turn at high speed. To avoid serious
injury, always be aware of moving parts. Keep a safe distance
from these parts as well as other potentially moving objects.

Engine parts become very hot when the engine is running.

To prevent severe burns, avoid contact with hot engine
parts.

Before starting an engine for testing or trouble-shooting, make

sure the parking brake is engaged. Put the transmission in
P RND L park (for automatic transmission) or neutral (for manual
transmission). Block the drive wheels with suitable blocks.
Connecting or disconnecting test equipment when the
ignition is ON can damage test equipment and the vehicle's
electronic components. Turn the ignition OFF before
connecting the Code Reader to or disconnecting the Code
Reader from the vehicle’s Data Link Connector (DLC).

To prevent damage to the on-board computer when taking

vehicle electrical measurements, always use a digital
multimeter with at least 10 MegOhms of impedance.

The vehicle's battery produces highly flammable hydrogen

gas. To prevent an explosion, keep all sparks, heated items
and open flames away from the battery.
Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry when working on an
engine. Loose clothing can become caught in the fan,
pulleys, belts, etc. Jewelry is highly conductive, and can
cause a severe burn if it makes contact between a power
source and ground.

CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE

CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE

Retrieving and using Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) for

troubleshooting vehicle operation is only one part of an
overall diagnostic strategy.

Never replace a part based only on the DTC definition.

Each DTC has a set of testing procedures, instructions
and flow charts that must be followed to confirm the
location of the problem. Always refer to the vehicle's
service manual for detailed testing instructions.
Check your vehicle thoroughly before performing
any test.

ALWAYS observe safety precautions whenever working on a

vehicle.
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Locate the vehicle's 16-pin Data Link
Connector (DLC).
Some DLCs have a plastic cover
that must be removed before
connecting the Scan Tool.
If the Scan Tool is ON, turn it OFF
BEFORE connecting to the DLC.
3. Connect the Scan Tool to the vehicle's
DLC. The cable connector is keyed and
will only fit one way.

CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE

„ Yellow LED - Indicates one of the following conditions:

A. A PENDING CODE IS PRESENT – If
the yellow LED is illuminated, it may
indicate a Pending code is present.
Check the display for confirmation. A
Pending code is confirmed by the
presence of a numeric code and the
word PENDING.
B. MONITOR NOT RUN STATUS – If
the display shows a zero (indicating
there are no DTC’s present in the
vehicle’s computer memory), but the
yellow LED is illuminated, it may be
an indication that some of the
Monitors supported by the vehicle
have not yet run and completed their
diagnostic testing. Check the display
for confirmation. All Monitor icons that
are blinking have not yet run and
completed their diagnostic testing; all
Monitor icons that are solid have run
and completed their diagnostic testing.
„ Red LED - Indicates there is a
problem with one or more of the
vehicle's systems. The red LED is
also used to show that DTC(s) are
present. In this case, the Malfunction
Indicator (Check Engine) lamp on the
vehicle's instrument panel will light
steady on.
„ DTC’s that start with “P0”, “P2”
and some “P3” are considered Generic (Universal). All
Generic DTC definitions are the same on all OBD2 equipped
vehicles. The Scan Tool automatically displays the code
definitions (if available) for Generic DTC’s.
„ DTC’s that start with “P1” and some “P3” are Manufacturer
specific codes and their code definitions vary with each vehicle
manufacturer.
13. If more than one DTC was retrieved, and to view Freeze Frame
Data, press and release DTC/FF, as necessary.
„ Each time DTC/FF is pressed and released, the Scan Tool will
scroll and display the next DTC in sequence until all DTCs in its
memory have displayed.
„ Freeze Frame data (if available) will display after DTC #1.

Using the Scan Tool
THE SYSTEM MENU

„ In OBD2 systems, when an emis-

sions-related engine malfunction oc-
curs that causes a DTC to set, a re-
cord or snapshot of engine conditions
at the time that the malfunction
occurred is also saved in the vehicle’s
computer memory. The record saved
is called Freeze Frame data. Saved
engine conditions include, but are not
limited to: engine speed, open or closed loop operation, fuel system
commands, coolant temperature, calculated load value, fuel
pressure, vehicle speed, air flow rate, and intake manifold pressure.
If more than one malfunction is present that causes more than
one DTC to be set, only the code with the highest priority will
contain Freeze Frame data. The code designated “01” on the
Scan Tool display is referred to as the PRIORITY code, and
Freeze Frame data always refers to this code. The priority
code is also the one that has commanded the MIL on.
14. When the last retrieved DTC has been displayed and DTC/FF is
pressed, the Scan Tool returns to the “Priority” Code.
15. Determine engine system(s) condition by viewing the display for any
retrieved Diagnostic Trouble Codes, code definitions and Freeze
Frame data, and interpreting the green, yellow and red LEDs.
„ If DTC’s were retrieved and you are going to perform the repairs
yourself, proceed by consulting the Vehicle’s Service Repair
Manual for testing instructions, testing procedures, and flow
charts related to retrieved code(s).

Live Data Mode
VIEWING LIVE DATA

The Scan Tool lets you view and/or record "real-time" Live Data. This
information includes values (volts, rpm, temperature, speed etc.) and
system status information (open loop, closed loop, fuel system status,
etc.) generated by the various vehicle sensors, switches and actuators.
These are the same signal values generated by the sensors, actuators,
switches and/or vehicle system status information used by the vehicle's
computer when calculating and conducting system adjustments and
corrections.
The real time (Live Data) vehicle operating information (values/status)
that the computer supplies to the Scan Tool for each sensor, actuator,
switch, etc. is called Parameter Identification (PID) Data.
Each PID (sensor, actuator switch, status, etc.) has a set of operating
characteristics and features (parameters) that serve to identify it. The
Scan Tool displays this information for each sensor, actuator, switch or
status that is supported by the vehicle under test.
WARNING: If the vehicle must be driven in order to perform a
troubleshooting procedure, ALWAYS have a second person
