mode only if a 1st trip DTC or DTC is detected. For details, refer to EC-QG-38.
FUNCTIONNCEC0034S03
Diagnostic test mode Function
Work supportThis mode enables a technician to adjust some devices faster and more accurately by following the
indications on the CONSULT-II unit.
Self-diagnostic resultsSelf-diagnostic results such as 1st trip DTC, DTCs and 1st trip freeze frame data or freeze frame
data can be read and erased quickly.*1
Data monitor Input/Output data in the ECM can be read.
Data monitor (spec)Input/Output specifications of the basic fuel schedule, AFM, A/F feedback control value and the
other data monitor items can be read.
Active testDiagnostic Test Mode in which CONSULT-II drives some actuators apart from the ECMs and also
shifts some parameters in a specified range.
DTC confirmation The status of system monitoring tests and the self-diagnosis status/result can be confirmed.
ECM part number ECM part numbers can be read.
*1 The following emission-related diagnostic information is cleared when the ECM memory is erased.

FUEL SYS DATAIªFuel injection system statusº at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
IOne mode in the following is displayed.
ªMODE 2º: Open loop due to detected system malfunction
ªMODE 3º: Open loop due to driving conditions (power enrichment, deceleration enrichment)
ªMODE 4º: Closed loop - using oxygen sensor(s) as feedback for fuel control
ªMODE 5º: Open loop - has not yet satisfied condition to go to closed loop

or [ÉF]IThe engine coolant temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
S-FUEL TRIM [%]IªShort-term fuel trimº at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
IThe short-term fuel trim indicates dynamic or instantaneous feedback compensation to the base fuel
schedule.
L-FUEL TRIM [%]IªLong-term fuel trimº at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
IThe long-term fuel trim indicates much more gradual feedback compensation to the base fuel schedule
than short-term fuel trim.

[rpm]IThe engine speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
VHCL SPEED [km/h]
or [mph]IThe vehicle speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
