  1. USING HAND-HELD TESTER 
    1. Hook up the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Monitor the ECU data by following the prompts on the tester screen.

    HINT:

    Hand-held tester has a "Snapshot" function which records the monitored data. Please refer to the hand-held tester operator's manual for further details.

  2. DTC CLEAR 

    The DTCs and freeze frame data will be erased by either action.

    Operate the hand-held tester to erase the codes.

  3. DATA LIST 

    HINT:

    According to the DATA LIST displayed by the hand-held tester, you can read the value of the switch, sensor, actuator and so on without parts removal. Reading the DATA LIST as a first step of troubleshooting is one of the method to shorten the labor time.
