Check Of Freeze Frame Data

By using scan tool, the freeze frame data can be checked (Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTIONS ) .

When detecting fault and storing the DTC, the ECU connected to CAN bus line obtains the data before the determination of the DTC and the data when the DTC is determined, and then stores the ECU status of that time. By analyzing each data using scan tool, troubleshooting can be carried out efficiently. The displayed items are as the table below:

DISPLAY ITEM LIST

Item No. Item name Data item Unit
01 Odometer Total driving distance when the DTC is set mile
02 Ignition cycle Number of times the electric motor switch is turned ON or LOCK (OFF) after the past failure transition Number of counts is displayed.
03 Elapsed time after failure Total elapsed time after a DTC is generated min(1)
04 Current trouble accumulative time Cumulative time for current malfunction of DTC min
06 Torque sensor (main) Voltage of the main torque sensor when the DTC is generated V
07 Torque sensor (sub) Voltage of the sub torque sensor when the DTC is generated V
08 Torque sensor (power supply) Voltage of torque sensor power supply when the DTC is generated V
09 Motor current Current of motor when the DTC is generated A
10 Motor current (target) Current of motor (target value) when the DTC is generated A
11 Relay voltage Voltage of power supply relay when the DTC is generated V
12 Vehicle speed Vehicles speed when the DTC is generated km/h (mph)
(1) Overall elapsed time can be stored up to 65, 534 minutes (45.5 days). The display of scan tool is fixed to 65, 534 minutes after 65, 534 minutes have elapsed. Or, if the battery is disconnected, the total elapsed time cannot be measured properly. Thus, 65, 535 minutes (null value) is displayed. Since the value is calculated according to the information from the ETACS, a proper value may not be displayed when the ETACS timeout has occurred.
