1. Safety Precautions and Warnings

To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the scan tool, read this instruction manual first and observe the following safety precautions at a minimum whenever working on a vehicle:

1.  Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
2.  Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
3.  Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all moving or hot engine parts.

3. Connection and Settings

3.1 Location of the Data Link Connector(DLC)

The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is typically a 16-pin connector where diagnostic code readers interface with the vehicle’s on-board computer. The DLC is usually located 12 inches from the center of the instrument panel(dash), under or around the driver’s side for most of the vehicle. If Data Link Connector is not located under the dashboard, a label should be there to tell it’s the location. For some Asian and European vehicles, the DLC is located behind the ashtray and the ashtray must be removed to access the connector. If the DLC cannot be found, refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the location.

Figure 3-1

Figure 3-6

Display a moment, a screen similar to Figure 3-7 will appear:

Figure 3-7

It mainly includes the following functions:

1.   Read Codes
   This option is used to identify which section of the emission control system has malfunctioned.

2.   Erase Codes
   After reading the retrieved codes from the vehicle and certain repairs have been carried out, you can use this function to erase the codes from the vehicle. Before performing this function, please be sure the vehicle’s ignition key is in the ON position with the engine off.
   NOTES:
   A. Before performing this function, make sure to retrieve and record the trouble codes.
   B. After clearing, you should retrieve trouble codes once more or turn
   the ignition on and retrieve codes again. If there are still some trouble codes in the system, please troubleshoot the code using a factory diagnosis guide, then clear the code and recheck.

3. Uve Data
   This option retrieves and displays live data and parameters from the vehicle’s ECU.

4.   View Freeze Frame
   When an emission-related fault occurs, certain vehicle conditions are recorded by the on-board computer. This information is referred to as freeze frame data. Freeze Data is a snapshot of the operating conditions at the time of an emission-related fault.
   Note: If DTCs were erased, Freeze Data may not be stored in vehicle memory depending on the vehicle.

5.   1/M Readiness
   1/M refers to Inspection and Maintenance that is legislated by the Government to meet federal clean-air standards. 1/M Readiness indicates whether or not the various emissions-related systems on the vehicle are operating properly and are ready for Inspection and Maintenance testing.
   The purpose of the 1/M Readiness Monitor Status is to indicate which one of the vehicle’s Monitors have run and completed their diagnosis and testing, and which ones have not yet run and completed testing and diagnosis of their designated sections of the vehicle’s emissions system.
   1/M Readiness Monitor Status function also can be used(after repair of a fault has been performed) to confirm that the repair has been performed correctly, and/or to check for Monitor Run Status.

6. 02 Monitor Test
   The results of the 02 sensor test are not live values but instead the results of the ECU’s last 02 sensor test, for live 02 sensor readings. Not all test values are applicable to all vehicles. Therefore, the list generated will vary depending on vehicle. In addition, not all the vehicles support the Oxygen Sensors screen.

7.   On-Board Monitor Test
   This function can be utilized to read the results of on-board diagnostic monitoring tests for specific components/systems.

8. Component Test
   The Component Test function lets you initiate a leak test for the vehicle’s Component system. The tool does not perform the leak test, but signals to vehicle’s on-board computer are to initiate the test, Before using the system test function, refer to the vehicle’s service repair manual to determine the procedures necessary to stop the test.

9.   Vehicle Info
   This option displays the vehicle information, such as VIN(Vehicle Identification Number), CID(Calibration ID) and CVN(Calibration Verification Number).
