Diagnostic Mode 02 - Read Operating Conditions

When an emissions-related fault (pending DTC, visible in mode 07) is first detected, operating conditions are stored. Mode 02 makes it possible to access this freeze frame data as soon as this fault is shown in mode 03. Each control module only shows freeze frame data for one fault via mode 02. Therefore, there are two priority levels. If there is a malfunction with higher priority, the freeze frame data is overwritten.

Procedure 

or start engine and let run at idle.

NOTE:
  • The operating conditions are sorted by the PID (parameter-identifications).
  • Bank 1 = Cylinder bank 1, in direction of travel, right
  • Bank 2 = Cylinder bank 2, in direction of travel, left
  • Measuring values of Engine Control Module (ECM) are displayed under "10 - Engine electronics" and measuring values of Transmission Control Module (TCM) are displayed under "1A - Transmission electronics".
