Inspection Procedure

  1. READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER 
    1. Warm up the engine.
    2. Ignition switch off.
    3. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    4. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
    5. Turn the tester ON.
    6. Enter following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / ENGINE / DATA LIST.
    7. Check values by referring to the table below.

      ENGINE: 

      NORMAL CONDITION CHART

      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      ENGINE SPD Engine speed / Min.: 0 rpm, Max.: 16,383 rpm Almost the same as the actual engine speed (When engine is running) -

    OK: Engine speed displayed on the tester is almost the same as the actual engine speed. 

    NG:  GO TO SFI SYSTEM

    OK : Go to Next Step 

  2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Check the input signal wave form.
      1. Remove the combination meter with connector still connected.
      2. Connect the oscilloscope to terminal C11-27 and body ground.
      3. Start the engine.
