Generic OBD-II PIDs

If a generic OBD-II scan tool is used it may require PID references to be entered. See GENERIC PID DEFINITION table. Turn ignition off. Ensure test equipment is properly attached. Program scan tool using the following steps:

Turn ignition on or start engine and allow to idle.
Select VEHICLE & ENGINE SELECTION menu (optional).
Select year, engine, model and any additional information requested by scan tool (optional).
Select DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTIONS. Press CONT button if all monitors are not complete.
Select PID/DATA MONITOR.
Select PIDs and press "Trigger".
Press START to begin.

⁽¹⁾	Also available in freeze frame data mode. Refer to FREEZE FRAME DATA MODE .

⁽²⁾	OL = Open Loop, Closed Loop (CL) conditions have not been satisfied. CL = Using HO2S feedback for fuel control. OL Drive = Open loop due to driving conditions (heavy acceleration). OL Fault = Open loop due to vehicle system fault. CL Fault = Closed loop fuel control, but fault with HO2S sensor(s).
