OBD Direct Operations OBD Diagnose

($04) Clear Emissions Related Data

This item is used to clear all emission related diagnostic data such as, DTCs, freeze frame data,

and test results from the memory of the selected ECM.

($05, 06, 07) Display Test param./Results

This option opens a submenu of test parameters and test results from various sensors, monitor

test results, and a record of DTCs detected during the last drive cycle. The menu includes:

• Oxygen Sensor Monitoring ($05)

• On-Board Monitored Systems ($06)

• DTCs Detected During Last Drive ($07)

($08) Request Control of On-board System

This service enables bidirectional control of the ECM so that the Scanner is able to transmit

control commands to operate the vehicle system. This function is useful in determining how well

the ECM responds to a command.

Available options vary by make, model, and year of the test vehicle. Select a test and follow the

on-screen instructions.

($09) Read Vehicle Identification

This selection displays the vehicle identification number (VIN), the calibration identification, and

the calibration verification number (CVN) of the test vehicle.

($09) In-use Performance Tracking

This selection displays the “In-use Performance Tracking” of monitored data. It is basically a

record of the number of times each of the monitor tests have been completed.

($0A) Emission Related DTC with Permanent Status

This service displays a record of any “permanent” codes on late-model vehicles if the vehicle

supports Service $0A. A permanent status DTC is one that was severe enough to illuminate the

MIL at some point, but the MIL may not be on at the present time.

Whether the MIL was switched off by clearing codes or because the setting conditions did not

repeat after a specified number of drive cycles, a record of the DTC is retained by the ECM.

Permanent status codes automatically clear after repairs have been made and the related system

monitor runs successfully.
