2. Connect ``CONSULT'' to Data link connector for CONSULT.
3. Insert NATS program card into CONSULT.
: Program card
NATS-E940
4. Turn on ignition switch.
5. Touch ``START''.
6. Touch ``V.2.0 (GASOLINE)''.
NOTE: ``V.2.0 (GASOLINE)'' should be selected for electrically
controlled diesel and gasoline engines.

CONSULT DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE FUNCTION
CONSULT DIAGNOSTIC TEST
MODEDescription
C/U INITIALIZATION When replacing any of the following three components, C/U initialization is necessary.
[NATS ignition key/IMMU/ECM]
SELF-FUNCTION CHECK ECM checks its own NATS communication interface by itself.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS Detected items (screen terms) are as shown in the chart below.
NOTE:
When any initialisation is performed, all ID previously registered will be erased. So all NATS ignition
keys must be registered again.
The engine cannot be started with an unregistered key. In this case, the system may show ``DIFFER-
ENCE OF KEY'' or ``LOCK MODE'' as a self-diagnostic result on the CONSULT screen.
HOW TO READ SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
NOTE:
+If trip number is more than 1, MIL does not blink.
+Time data is not indicated for TB45E engine models.
