Onboard Diagnostics DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCs) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCs) Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are meant to guide you to the proper service procedure in the vehicle’s service manual. DO NOT replace parts based only on DTCs without first consulting the vehicle’s service manual for proper testing procedures for that particular system, circuit or component. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are codes that identify a specific problem area.
Onboard Diagnostics DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCs) The “Malfunction Indicator Lamp” (MIL) is the accepted term used to describe the lamp on the dashboard that lights to warn the driver that an emissions-related fault has been found. Some manufacturers may still call this lamp a “Check Engine” or “Service Engine Soon” light.
Preparation for Testing PRELIMINARY VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET PRELIMINARY VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET The purpose of this form is to help you gather preliminary information on your vehicle before you retrieve codes. By having a complete account of your vehicle's current problem(s), you will be able to systematically pinpoint the problem(s) by comparing your answers to the fault codes you retrieve.

Press and release the ERASE button. A confirmation message shows on the display.
Using the Scan Tool I/M READINESS TESTING The program requires that a vehicle be taken periodically to an Emissions Station for an "Emissions Test" or "Smog Check,” where the emissions-related components and systems are inspected and tested for proper operation. Emissions Tests are generally performed once a year, or once every two years. On OBD2 systems, the I/M program is enhanced by requiring vehicles to meet stricter test standards.
Using the Scan Tool I/M READINESS TESTING Emissions Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) Readiness Monitor Status Information I/M Readiness Monitor Status shows which 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.
Using the Scan Tool I/M READINESS TESTING Monitors with a "Has Run" status indicate that all the required conditions they needed to perform diagnosis and testing of their assigned engine area (system) have been met, and all diagnostic testing has completed successfully. Monitors with a "Has Not Run" status have not yet met the conditions they need to perform diagnosis and testing of their assigned engine area (system), and have not been able to perform diagnostic testing on that system.
Using the Scan Tool I/M READINESS TESTING - Some areas require that all Monitors indicate a "Has Run" status before they allow an Emissions Test (Smog Check) to be performed. Other areas only require that some, but not all, Monitors have run their self-diagnostic testing before an Emissions Test (Smog Check) may be performed.
Using the Scan Tool I/M READINESS TESTING 3. After the erase procedure is performed, most of the Monitor icons on the Scan Tool’s display will be flashing. Leave the Scan Tool connected to the vehicle, and perform a Trip Drive Cycle for each "flashing" Monitor: Misfire, Fuel and Comprehensive Component Monitors run continuously and their icons will always be on solid, even after the erase function is performed. Each DTC is associated with a specific Monitor.
