ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS)(H4DO) > General Scan Tool
1. HOW TO USE GENERAL SCAN TOOL
1. Prepare a scan tool (general scan tool) required by SAE J1978.
2. Open the cover and connect the general scan tool to the data link connector located in the lower area of instrument panel (on the driver’s side).
3. Using the general scan tool, call up DTC and freeze frame data.
General scan tool functions consist of:
(1) MODE $01: Current powertrain diagnostic data
(2) MODE $02: Powertrain freeze frame data
(3) MODE $03: Emission-related powertrain DTC
(4) MODE $04: Clear/Reset emission-related diagnostic information
(5) MODE $06: Request on-board monitoring test results for intermittently monitored systems
(6) MODE $07: First diagnosis result related to emission
(7) MODE $09: Request vehicle information
Read data according to the repairing procedure. (For detailed operation procedure, refer to the general scan tool instruction manual.)
NOTE:
2. MODE $01 (CURRENT POWERTRAIN DIAGNOSTIC DATA)
Refer to data denoting the current operating condition of analog input/output, digital input/output or the powertrain system.
A list of the support data and PID (Parameter Identification) codes are shown in the following table.
