alphabetical and not necessarily the way they will appear
on the Tech 2.
DTC Information Mode
Use the DTC info mode to search for a specific type of
stored DTC information.The service manual may instruct
the technician to test for DTCs in a certain manner.
Always follow published service procedures.
Fail This Ignition
This selection will display all DTCs that have failed during
the present ignition cycle.
History
This selection will display only DTCs that are stored in the
ECM’s history memory. It will not display Type B DTCs
that have not requested the MIL (“Check Engine” lamp). It
will display all type A and B DTCs that have requested the
MIL and have failed within the last 40 warm-up cycles. In
addition, it will display all type C and type D DTCs that
have failed within the last 40 warm-up cycles.
MIL SVC or Message Requested
This selection will display only DTCs that are requesting
the MIL. Type C and type D DTCs cannot be displayed
using this option. This selection will report type B DTCs
only after the MIL has been requested.
Test Failed Since Code Cleared
This selection will display all active and history DTCs that
have reported a test failure since the last time DTCs were
cleared.
Injector Test
This test is conducted to make it sure that appropriate
electric signals are being sent to injectors Nos. 1 – 4.
Tech–2 must be used for this test.
Test Procedure:
1. Connect Tech–2 to the vehicle DLC.
2. Set Ignition Switch to the “ON” position.
3. Select Control Test.
4. Select Injector Test.
5. Send instructions to each injector(Switch on), making
sure of injector working noise.
NOTE: If injector working noise (Clink) can hardly be
confirmed, remove the engine head cover noise
insulation.
Refer to Section 6A.
6. In the injector whose working noise has been
confirmed, its electric circuit can be regarded as
normal.
As for the injector whose working noise has not been
confirmed, its electric circuit or the injector proper is
faulty.
EGR Valve Test
This test is conducted to check EGR valve for its working.
This test needs Tech–2.
Test Procedure
1. Connect Tech–2 to vehicle DLC.
2. Switch on the engine.
3. Select “DIAGNOSIS” from the main menu.
4. Select Miscellaneous Test.
5. Select EGR Valve.
6. Instruct EGR Valve to check a data list.
7. If change in the data list shows a normal valve, the
working of EGR Valve can be judged to be normal.
Rail Pressure Control Valve Test
This test is conducted to check RPC valve for its working.
This test needs Tech–2.
Test Procedure
1. Connect Tech–2 to vehicle DLC.
2. Switch on the engine.
3. Select “DIAGNOSIS” from the main menu.
4. Select Miscellaneous Test.
5. Select Rail Pressure Control Valve.
6. Instruct RPC Valve to check a data list.
7. If change in the data list shows a normal valve, the
working of RPC Valve can be judged to be normal.
Injector Balance Test
This test is conducted to make it sure that appropriate
electric signals are being sent to injectors Nos. 1-4, when
the engine is idling.
This test needs Tech–2.
Test Procedure
1. Connect Tech–2 to vehicle DLC.
2. The engine is running at idling condition.
3. Select “DIAGNOSIS” from the main menu.
4. Select Miscellaneous Test.
5. Select the injector Balance Test.
6. Send instructions to each injector(Switch On),
making sure change of the engine vibration.
7. In the injector whose change of the vibration has been
confirmed, it’s electric circuit can be regarded as
normal.
Data Programming in Case of ECM Change
When replacing ECM, it is necessary to confirm and
record the group sign of injector beforehand. For this
confirmation.
