Retrieving Codes

  1. Locate diagnostic unit, and remove its cover. Connect selector cable to socket No. 5. Turn ignition to ON position. Enter control function No. 1 (access codes) by pressing push button one time for at least one second and no more than 3 seconds.
  2. Watch Red LED, and count number of flashes in 3-flash series. Flash series are separated by 3-second intervals. See Figure . Note all codes. Only 3 separate codes can be stored at once. If no codes are stored, LED will flash a 1-1-1 to indicate turbo system is operating properly.
  3. If a fault code is received, refer to TURBO SYSTEM FAULT CODES table. Depress push button again, and check for additional codes. Depress push button a third time if necessary. If first code repeats, no other codes are present.
  4. Diagnostic system memory is full when 7 codes are present. Those codes must be repaired before further codes can be retrieved.
NOTE: Not all codes listed in TURBO SYSTEM FAULT CODES table are used on every vehicle.
