HOW TOERASE SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
(Malfunction codes)

1. Disconnect thecheck terminal fromground (ASSwarning
lamp willstay lit).
2. Within 12.5seconds, groundthecheck terminal 3times.
Each terminal groundmustlastmore than1second. The

HOW
TOREAD SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS(Malfunction codes)

• Determine thecode No.bycounting thenumber oftimes thewarning lampflashes onand off.
• When several malfunctions occuratone time, uptothree codenumbers canbestored; thelatest
malfunction willbeindicated first.
• The indication beginswiththestart code 12.After thatamaximum ofthree codenumbers appearin
the order ofthe latest onefirst. Theindication thenreturns tothe start code 12torepeat (theindi-
cation willstay onfor five minutes atthe most).
