Preparation for Test (DTC readout):
1. Fuses OK.
2. Ignition: ON
3. Connect Hand-Held Tester (HHT) according to connection diagram shown
in section 0.
4. Voltage supply to control modules and CAN data lines ok, see
23,
5. All CAN data lines must be connected.
The diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's) can only be read out and erased using
the Hand-Held Tester (HHT).
DTCs for the system being checked may be located in other control modules,
therefore it is important to check the DTC memory on all control modules
that are relevant to the system being checked.
While performing the DTC readout, it is possible that DTCs may appear that
are not relevent to the system being checked, meaning that all stored DTCs
in that particular control module are being displayed.
Non-relevant DTCs are described in each system as necessary.
Note regarding Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's):
Current diagnostic trouble codes are highlighted in black on the display.
Additional detailed fault information based on fault type is displayed with
nearly all diagnostic codes (DTC's) such as:
> Resistance too great
< Resistance too low
-
Short circuit to ground (GND)
+
Short circuit to positive (POS)
-//- Open circuit
Fault frequency
Faults are noted by frequency of occurrence, i.e.: 4 periodic faults,
4 occurances. |
