Using MIL
- If the ignition switch stays ON after repair work, ensure to turn ignition switch OFF once.
- Wait at least 10 seconds and then turn ignition ON (engine stopped) again.
- Change the diagnostic test mode from Mode II to Mode I by depressing the accelerator pedal.
- If the battery is disconnected, the emission-related diagnostic information will be lost after approximately 24 hours.
- The following data is cleared when the ECM memory is erased:
- Diagnostic trouble codes.
- 1st trip diagnostic trouble codes.
- Freeze Frame data.
- 1st trip Freeze Frame data.
- System Readiness Test (SRT) codes.
- Test values.
Actual work procedures are explained using a DTC as an example. Be careful so that not only the DTC, but all of the data listed above, is cleared from the ECM memory during work procedures.
