Retrieve/Clear Continuous DTC Self-Test Procedure

NOTE:
  • The first test to run is Retrieve/Clear Continuous DTC Self-Test. Record the DTCs on a piece of paper and proceed to the KOEO Self-Test.

    The purpose of recording the continuous DTCs at this time is to make sure that they are not unintentionally cleared during any KOEO or KOER service. KOEO and KOER codes are always addressed before continuous codes.

  1. Perform the "New Generation Star (NGS) Tester Hook-Up Procedure". See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST - NEW GENERATION STAR (NGS) TESTER HOOK-UP PROCEDURE  .
  2. Move the cursor to READ/CLEAR CONTINUOUS DTCs  . Press the trigger key to enter this selection.
