2.ACTIVE TEST
HINT:
Performing the ACTIVE TEST
using the hand-held tester allows the relays, VSV, actuators and so on to
operate without parts removal. Performing the ACTIVE TEST
as the first STEP of troubleshooting is
one way to shorten labor time.
It is possible to display the DATA LIST on the hand-held tester during the ACTIVE TEST.
a. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
b. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
c. From the display on tester, perform the "ACTIVE TEST
