Diagnostic Mode 07 - Read Faults Detected During The Current Or Last Driving Cycle

Mode 07 makes it possible to check emissions-related faults which appeared during the current or last driving cycle (pending DTCs).

A pending DTC is saved the first time a fault is detected (output via Mode 07).

-- If the fault is detected again by the end of the following driving cycle, a confirmed DTC is entered (output via Mode 03) and the MIL is activated.

-- If this malfunction is not detected again by the end of the following driving cycle, the corresponding pending code will be deleted at the end of the driving cycle.

NOTE:

Depending on scan tool and protocol used, some of the information provided may be referred to by a different name.

Procedure 

-- Connect the scan tool.

-- Start the engine and run at idle.

NOTE:

If the engine does not start, crank the engine using starter for at least 5 seconds. Do not switch the ignition off afterward.

-- Select "Mode 7: Check test results of components that are continuously monitored".

The number of pending DTCs or "0 malfunctions detected" will be displayed on the scan tool screen.

-- Refer to the following DTC tables for the diagnostic repair procedure:

-- Switch the ignition off.
