Data List / Active Test

  1. DATA LIST 

    HINT:

    Using the intelligent tester to read the DATA LIST allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators, and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non intrusive inspection can be very useful as intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the DATA LIST information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.

    1. Warm up the engine.
    2. Engine switch off.
    3. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    4. Engine switch on (IG) position.
    5. Turn the tester ON.
    6. Enter following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / METER / DATA LIST
    7. Check the values by referring to the table below.

  2. ACTIVE TEST 

    HINT:

    Performing the ACTIVE TEST using the intelligent tester allows the meters, indicators and so on to operate without parts removal. Performing the ACTIVE TEST as the first step of troubleshooting is one way to shorten diagnosis time.

    It is possible to display the DATA LIST on the intelligent tester during the ACTIVE TEST.

    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the tester ON.
    4. Enter following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / METER/ACTIVE TEST
    5. From the display on tester, perform "ACTIVE TEST".
