      Judge OK and clear the NG when the malfunction criteria below are completed.

      Judgment Value 

      JUDGMENT VALUE

      Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
      Terminal voltage level when ECM outputs OFF signal High level
  6. DTC CLEAR CONDITION 
    • When the OK idling cycle is completed 40 times in a row
    • When "Clear Memory" was performed
  7. MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CLEAR CONDITION
