Diagnosis - Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Memory

Preparation for DTC Readout

1. Review 21, 22, 23
2. Connect Hand-Held Tester (HHT) to data link connector (X11/4) according to connection diagram (see section 0).
3. Read out DTC memory and actual values for BAS system.
4. Read out DTC memory for traction systems (ABS, ASR, ESP).
5. Perform Function Test via the HHT.
6. Ignition: ON


DTC readout is not possible using an impulse counter scan tool.

In case of complaint, and no fault is present in system, perform 23 in its entirety.

Test Equipment; See MBUSA Standard Service Equipment Program

Description Brand, model, etc.
