Scan Tool Data List

Use the Typical Scan Data Values table only after the Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check has been completed, no DTCs were noted, and you have determined the on-board diagnostics are functioning properly. Scan tool values from a properly running engine may be used for comparison with the engine you are diagnosing. The Typical Scan Data values represent values that would be seen on a normally running engine.

IMPORTANT: A scan tool that displays faulty data should not be used, and the problem should be reported to the scan tool manufacturer. Use of a faulty scan tool can result in misdiagnosis and unnecessary parts replacement.

Only the parameters listed below are referred to in this service manual for use in diagnosis. For further information on using the scan tool to diagnose the powertrain control module (PCM) and related sensors, refer to the applicable reference section listed below. If all values are within the typical range described below, refer to Symptoms - Engine Controls . The Typical Scan Data Values table contains all the parameters included in the following data lists arranged in alphabetical order:

For scan tool parameter definitions, refer to Scan Tool Data Definitions  .

IMPORTANT: Use the Typical Scan Data Values only after the following conditions are met:
