S a f e t y P re c a u tio ns

To prevent accidents that could possibly result in serious injury and/or damage to vehicles and/or test equipment, carefully follow all safety rules and test procedures:

• Always wear approved eye protection.

• Always operate the vehicle in a wellventilated area. Do not breath exhaust gases — they are very hazardous.

• Always keep yourself, tools and test equipment away from moving or hot engine parts.

• Make sure the vehicle is in Park (automatic transmission) or neutral (manual transmission). Set parking brake and

block the drive wheels.

• Never lay tools on vehicle battery.

Terminals may short together causing harm to yourself, the tools or the battery.

• Never use the Code Scanner if it has been exposed to any moisture.

• Never smoke or have open flames near vehicle. Vapors from gasoline and charging battery are highly flammable and explosive.

• Never leave vehicle unattended while testing.

• Always keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/electrical/chemical fires readily available.

• Use caution when working around the ignition coils, ignition wires, and spark plugs. These components produce High

Voltage when the engine is running.

• When performing road tests, never operate the tool while driving the vehicle.

Always have one person drive the vehicle and the other operate the tool.

• Always turn ignition key OFF when connecting or disconnecting electrical components, unless otherwise instructed.

• Always follow vehicle manufacturer’s warnings, cautions and service procedures.

About OBD II

OBD II stands for On-Board Diagnostics version II. OBD II is a system that the Society of

Automotive Engineers (SAE) developed to standardize automotive electronic diagnosis to minimize vehicle pollution and to allow you to use the same tool to test any make and model without special adapters. The SAE established guidelines that provide:

• a universal diagnostic test connector, called the data link connector (DLC), with dedicated pin assignments.

• a standardized location for the DLC, visible under the dash on the driver’s side.

• a standardized list of Generic diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) used by all manufacturers. Certain DTCs are reserved for the manufacturer.

SAE publishes recommendations, not laws, but the Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) made many of SAE’s recommendations legal requirements that car makers were required to phase in over a three-year period. Beginning in 1994, vehicles with a new engine management computer

– about 10% of each manufacturers fleet – were supposed to comply with OBD II standards. For 1995, OBD II systems were to appear on about 40% of the new vehicles sold in the USA. Some of the 1994-1995 OBD II systems were not fully compliant, so the

Government granted waivers to give manufacturers time to fine-tune their systems.

Beginning in 1996, most of the new vehicles sold in the USA were fully OBD II compliant.

Diagnostic Trouble Code(s) (DTC)

Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) consist of a five-digit alphanumeric code in the format shown below. When the On-Board Computer recognizes and identifies a problem in the computer-monitored systems, a DTC for that fault is stored in memory. These codes are intended to help you determine the root cause of a problem. As new DTCs are approved and added by the SAE, periodic updates to the software become available.

OBD II Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC)

The Data Link Connector (DLC) allows the scan tool to communicate with the vehicle computer. OBD II defines the physical and electrical specification for the DLC. Certain pins in the connector are reserved.

The DLC is also referred to as a J1962 connector, the term taken from a physical and electrical specification number assigned by SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers). The

J1962 specification defines the location of the DLC in the vehicle. The DLC should be located under the dashboard on the driver side of the vehicle. If the DLC is not located under the dashboard as stated, a decal describing its location should be attached to the dashboard in the area the DLC should have been located.

Operating the Code Scanner

Control and Indicators

The scan tool is designed to be as intuitive as possible. All menu and lists operate the same way.

• ENTER Key - selects displayed items and moves cursor in the Code Lookup function.

• YES/UP Arrow Key - responds yes to prompts, scrolls up and changes numbers in Code Lookup.

• NO/DOWN Arrow Key - responds no to prompts, scrolls down and changes numbers in Code Lookup.

• BACK Key - return to the previous screen or exit a function.

• LCD DISPLAY - A 2-line x 16-character display with contrast adjust.

• OBD II (J1962) Adapter Cable - provides power to the scanner and a link to the vehicle.

Code Scanner Functions

1. Connect the Code Scanner to the vehicle DLC, it will not harm the vehicle.

2. The name and software ID displays momentarily.

3. Press ENTER to go to the Main Menu.

4. The display contrast can be adjusted for different viewing angles. Select Display Contrast and use the UP / DOWN arrow keys to increase and decrease the contrast. The setting will remain even when the power is disconnected.

CAUTION!

Avoid Cooling Fan! It May

Turn On During Test.

NOTE: If an Operating Error message is displayed, make sure the OBD II J1962 adapter cable is securely attached, and the ignition key is ON. Cycle the ignition key to OFF for 10 seconds, then ON. This may be required to reset the PCM. Press the

BACK key to test again. If the problem still exists, refer to Troubleshooting Tips.

NOTE: Do not disconnect the Code Scanner until codes have been recorded. When power is removed, Code Scanner memory is cleared.

Read Codes

The Read Codes function retrieves Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from the vehicle’s computer modules. This function can be performed with the Key On-Engine Off (KOEO) or Key On-Engine Running (KOER). Because DTCs indicate a circuit or system failure

(not component failures) they are very useful in isolating vehicle system malfunctions.

There are two types of codes, Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) codes and Pending codes. An icon (;) will be displayed next to DTCs that are Pending codes.

MIL Codes: These codes cause the computer to illuminate the MIL when an emission related or driveability fault occurs. The MIL is also known as the “service engine soon” or “check engine lamp”. The computer illuminates the MIL when the engine is running and the DTC remains in memory until the fault is repaired.

Pending Codes: These codes are also referred as “continuous monitor” and “maturing codes”. An intermittent fault causes the computer to store a code in memory. If the fault does not occur within 40 warm-up cycles, the code will be cleared from memory.

If the fault occurs a specific number of times, the code matures into a DTC and the

MIL turns on.

Turn the ignition key to the KOEO or KOER. Select Read

Codes and press ENTER.

If there are no codes stored in vehicle memory, a “System

Pass” message displays.

Using the

Code Scanner

®

If codes have been stored in vehicle memory, then the number of codes and type display (i.e. = 1 of 3 ;). Press the

DOWN arrow to view the codes. The definitions for Global

(Generic) DTCs display with the code number. Manufacturer-specific DTCs display the code number, and a message identifying the system and to refer to a service manual.

Press the BACK key when done.

NOTE: Changing any part without first isolating the circuit or system may result in the replacement of good components.

Erase Codes

The Erase Codes function deletes the DTCs from the vehicle’s memory. Perform this function only after the systems have been checked completely and DTCs have been documented. This function should be performed with KOEO - Do not START engine. An error message will usually display when performing this function with KOER.

After servicing the vehicle, delete the stored DTCs and verify no codes have been reset.

If DTCs return, the problem has not been corrected or other faults are present.

The Erase function also erases freeze frame data, O2 sensor test data, system monitors, and on-board monitoring test results, which may be accessed by other Scan Tool type equipment.

Select Erase Codes and press ENTER. Press YES to erase the codes or NO to retain the codes. If NO is chosen, a “Erase Command Cancelled” message appears.

Once YES is selected, the function cannot be interrupted. Make sure to choose YES only if codes are to be erased permanently. A message displays stating that “No Codes

Remain” or the number of DTCs that remain in memory.

If DTCs still exist, the number will be displayed. The faults must be repaired to remove these DTCs. Press ENTER to return to the Main Menu. Press the BACK key when done.

MIL Status

The MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) Status function displays the state of the computer module that commanded the MIL to turn on. A request is sent to the computer module(s) to state whether they are commanding the MIL to turn ON. If the MIL Status is ON and the

MIL is not illuminated with the engine running, then a problem exists in the MIL circuit.

Refer to “Diagnostic Circuit Check” in the service repair manual.

NOTE: Some manufacturers will turn the MIL Off if a certain number of drive cycles occur without the same fault being detected. The DTCs related to a MIL are erased from the computer’s memory after 40 warm-up cycles if the same fault is not detected.

Select the MIL Status function and press the ENTER key. The MIL Status displays on the top line and a scrolling message on the bottom indicating if the MIL lamp should be ON or OFF. When done, press the BACK key.

I/M Monitors

The I/M (Inspection and Maintenance) Monitors function displays the state of the vehicle’s

OBD II Monitors. Monitors test the operation of emission related systems or components and detect out-of-range values. The vehicle may have to be operated under certain driving conditions to initiate a monitor.

Currently, there are eleven OBD II Monitors defined and required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), but not all monitors are supported by all vehicles.

A status of “Ready” means that the required driving conditions for that monitor have been meet and it passed.

A status of “Not Ready” means that the required driving conditions for that monitor have not been met.

A status of “Not Applicable (N/A)” means the vehicle does not support that monitor.

View Freeze Data

When an emission-related fault occurs, certain vehicle conditions are recorded by the on-board computer. This information is referred to as a Freeze Frame data. The information is a “snapshot” of the operating conditions at the time of a fault. This data can be overwritten by faults with a higher priority. If codes were erased, then freeze frame data may not be stored in vehicle memory.

Select View Freeze Data and press ENTER. If freeze-frame data exists, then use the arrow keys to view the DTCs and parameter identification data (PIDs).

If more than one computer module responds with freeze frame data, then the frame number and module display on the first line. Press the ENTER key to change modules.

When done, press the BACK key.

Code Lookup

Code Lookup is a built-in OBD II Global (Generic) DTC database. It can be used to look up the definitions of DTCs. The DTC database does not include manufacturer specific

DTC definitions.

Select Code Lookup and press ENTER. All characters must be entered – one character can be changed at a time. The carat (^) symbol automatically displays under the first digit.

Pressing the UP/DOWN arrow keys scrolls through the digits. Once the desired digit is displayed, press the ENTER key and the ^ symbol moves under the next digit. Repeat for the remaining digits in the code. After entering the last digit, the ENTER key displays the definition. Once in the definition screen, press the UP/DOWN arrow keys to view the previous or next code definition.

Press the ENTER or BACK key to return to the Code Lookup screen. Press BACK again if done.

Troubleshooting Tips

Perform A Visual Inspection

Performing a thorough visual and “hands-on” underthe -hood inspection before starting any diagnostic procedure is essential. Many problems can be found this way. Visually inspect for the following:

• Has the vehicle been serviced recently? Sometimes things are reconnected in the wrong place, or not at all.

• Do not take shortcuts. Inspect hoses and wiring which may be difficult to see because of location

(under air cleaner housing, alternators and similar components).

• Inspect the air cleaner and ductwork for defects.

• Check sensors and actuators for damage.

• Inspect all vacuum hoses for:

* Correct routing. Refer to vehicle service manual, or

Vehicle Emission Control Information (VECI) decal located in the engine compartment.

* Pinches and kinks.

* Splits, cuts or breaks

• Inspect wiring for:

* Contact with sharp edges (a common problem).

* Contact with hot surfaces, such as exhaust

• Inspect Electrical Connectors for:

* Corrosion on pins

* Bent or damaged pins.

* Contacts not properly seated in housing.

* Bad wire crimps to terminals.

* Problems with connectors are common in the engine control system. Inspect carefully.

Link Errors or Erroneous Data

If the Code Scanner displays link errors when attempting to read, erase, or look up codes, check the following:

• Make sure the cable is securely connected to the DLC.

• Verify ignition key is ON and not in the ACCESSORIES position.

• Examine the DLC closely and check for cracked or recessed pins, or for any substance that could prevent a good electrical connection.

• Verify that the vehicle you are testing is an OBD II compliant vehicle. Just because it has the OBD II J1962 DLC does not mean the vehicle is OBD II compliant.

• Test for continuity between the DLC wiring and the PCM. In an extreme case there may be a broken wire.

• Check the vehicle for blown fuses. If the PCM fuse is blown, it cannot transmit data.

NOTE: The PCM fuse may be located on the fuse block in the passenger compartment.

• Make sure the PCM has a good ground. If the PCM has a ground directly to the case, clean the connection and apply a conductive grease to the mating surfaces.

• As a last resort, the PCM may be defective. Refer to the vehicle service manual for correct procedures for testing the PCM.

If the Code Scanner is not working correctly after the checks and corrections above, contact the technical support line at 1-800-228-7667 (8:00 - 6:00 EST Monday - Friday), or visit our web site at www.actron.com.

G lo b a l Pa r a m e t e r l is t

All parameter identification data (PID) listed was verified on actual vehicles to guarantee accuracy. Definitions used to describe all PIDs were obtained from reliable sources and are accurate at time of printing. It is possible that some newer vehicles may contain data different from that listed in Appendix A. Always refer to vehicle service manual for manufacturer specific PIDs.

Data Parameter List Format

The PID list is organized in alphabetical order — the same way the scan tool does.

For each PID, the type of reading are provided. Remember to always refer to a vehicle service manual for detailed diagnostic procedures for troubleshooting incorrect PID readings.

Types of Data Parameters

INPUT: These data parameters are obtained from sensor circuit outputs.

Sensor circuit outputs are inputs to vehicle’s PCM. For example, if

Oxygen Sensor circuit was generating a 400mV signal, then scan tool would read O2S (v) 0.40.

OUTPUT: These data parameters are outputs or commands that come directly from computer module(s). For example; the ignition spark advance is controlled by PCM, on most vehicles, monitoring this PID shows spark output from PCM. The scan tool would display IGN ADV(°) 10.

CALCULATED: These data parameters are calculated after analyzing various inputs to the vehicle’s computer module(s). For example, the engine load.

The PCM calculates this from sensor inputs and displays it in a percentage.

PCM VALUE: Is information that is stored in the computer module(s)’s memory and determined to be useful to service technician. An example of this is

TROUBLE CODE value, the DTC that caused a freeze frame capture.

NOTE: Several different causes can have the same parameter indication. For information on diagnostics consult vehicle service manuals.
