3.3.2 Intermittent Code
A diagnostic trouble code that is not there every time the engine control module/SKIM checks the
circuit is an ªintermittentº code. Most intermittent codes are caused by wiring or connector
problems. Defects that come and go like this are the most difficult to diagnose; they must be
looked for under specific conditions that cause them. The following checks may assist you in
identifying a possible intermittent problem:
²Visually inspect related wire harness connectors. Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or
corroded terminals.
²Visually inspect the related harnesses. Look for chafed, pierced, or partially broken wire.
²Refer to any hotlines or technical service bulletins that may apply.
NOTE: Electromagnetic (radio) interference can cause an intermittent system malfunction. This
interference can interrupt communication between the ignition key transponder and the SKIM.
3.3.3 Reset Counter
The reset counter counts the number of times the vehicle has been started since codes were last
set, erased, or the battery was disconnected. The reset counter will count up to 255 start counts.
The number of starts helps determine when the trouble code actually happened. This is recorded
by the ECM and can be viewed on the DRB as the RESET COUNTER.
When there are no trouble codes stored in memory, the DRB will display ªNO TROUBLE CODES
FOUNDº and the reset counter will show ªRESET COUNT = XXX.º

3.5.1 DRB Does Not Power Up
If the LED's do not light or no sound is emitted at start up, check for loose cable connections or
a bad cable. Check the vehicle battery voltage (data link connector cavity 16). A minimum of 11
volts at DLC cavity 16 is required to adequately power the DRB. Check for proper ground
connection at DLC cavities 4 and 5.
If all connections are proper between the DRB and the vehicle or other devices, and the vehicle
battery is fully charged, an inoperative DRB may be the result of faulty cable or vehicle wiring. For
a blank screen, refer to the appropriate diagnostics manual.
3.5.2 Display is Not Visible
Low temperatures will affect the visibility of the display. Adjust the contrast to compensate for this
condition.

4.8 Lamps and Indicators
The ªCruiseº lamp is controlled by the Body Control Module. The Diagnostic/Glow Plug lamp is
controlled by the Engine Control Module. The ªAlarm Setº lamp is controlled by the SKIM.
5.0 DISCLAIMERS, SAFETY, WARNINGS
5.1 Disclaimers
All information, illustrations, and specifications contained in this manual are based on the latest
information available at the time of publication. The right is reserved to make changes at any time
without notice.
5.2 Safety
5.2.1 Technician Safety Information
WARNING!!Engines produce carbon monoxide that is odorless, causes slower reaction time,
and can lead to serious injury. When the engine is operating, keep service areas WELL
VENTILATED or attach the vehicle exhaust system to the shop exhaust removal system.
Set the parking brake and block the wheels before testing or repairing the vehicle. It is especially
important to block the wheels on front-wheel drive vehicles; the parking brake does not hold the
drive wheels.
When servicing a vehicle, always wear eye protection, and remove any metal jewelry such as
watchbands or bracelets that might make an inadvertent electrical contact.
When diagnosing a powertrain system problem, it is important to follow approved procedures
where applicable. These procedures can be found in the service manual. Following these
procedures is very important to the safety of individuals performing diagnostic tests.
5.2.2 Vehicle Preparation for Testing
Make sure the vehicle being tested has a fully charged battery. If it does not, false diagnostic
codes or error messages may occur.
5.2.3 Servicing Sub-Assemblies
Some components of the powertrain system are intended to be serviced in assembly only.
Attempting to remove or repair certain system sub-components may result in personal injury
and/or improper system operation. Only those components with approved repair and installation
procedures in the service manual should be serviced.
5.2.4 DRBIIITSafety Information
WARNING: Exceeding the limits of the DRB multimeter is dangerous. It can expose you to
serious or possibly fatal injury. Carefully read and understand the cautions and the
specification limits.
²Follow the vehicle manufacturer's service specifications at all times.
²Do not use the DRB if it has been damaged.
²Do not use the test leads if the insulation is damaged or if metal is exposed.
²To avoid electrical shock, do not touch the test leads, tips, or the circuit being tested.

TEST DTCCHECKING FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
NOTE: The battery must be fully charged for any test in this manual.
1. Attempt to start the engine. Crank for up to 10 seconds if necessary.
2. Connect the DRB to the data link connector. Write down the trouble codes that are displayed.
3. If the DRB displays ``No Response'', go toTEST NS-2A.
4. If the DRB screen is blank or has a DRB error message, go toGeneral Information Section
3.5in this manual.
5. Iftrouble code messagesare displayed, refer to the trouble code list below and on the
following page for the appropriate test.
6. If there are no ECM trouble codes displayed, refer to one of the following:
For Immobilizer problems..................................................SK-1A
For Driveability problems.................................................NTC-1A
For No Start problems....................................................NS-1A
For Speed Control problems...............................................SC-1A
NOTE:For all component locations see General Information Section 4.0 in this manual.
