9. OBD-II General Scan Tool
A: OPERATION
1. HOW TO USE OBD-II GENERAL SCAN
TOOL
1) Prepare a general scan tool (OBD-II general
scan tool) required by SAE J1978.
2) Open the cover and connect the OBD-II general
scan tool to the data link connector located in the
lower portion of the instrument panel (on the driv-
er’s side).
3) Using the OBD-II general scan tool, call up the
DTC and freeze frame data.
OBD-II general scan tool functions consist of:
(1) MODE $01: Current powertrain diagnostic
data
(2) MODE $02: Powertrain freeze frame data
(3) MODE $03: Emission-related powertrain di-
agnostic trouble codes
(4) MODE $04: Clear/Reset emission-related
diagnostic information
Read out data according to repair procedures.(For
detailed operation procedures, refer to the OBD-II
General Scan Tool Operation Manual.)
NOTE:
For details concerning DTCs, refer to the List of Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC). 74, List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).>

2. MODE $01 (CURRENT POWERTRAIN DIAGNOSTIC DATA)
Refers to data denoting the current operating condition of analog input/output, digital input/output and/or the
powertrain system.
A list of the support data and PID (Parameter Identification) codes are shown in the following table.
NOTE:
Refer to OBD-II general scan tool manufacturer’s instruction manual to access generic OBD-II PIDs (MODE
$01).
3. MODE $02 (POWERTRAIN FREEZE FRAME DATA)
Refers to data denoting the operating condition when trouble is sensed by the on-board diagnosis system.
A list of the support data and PID (Parameter Identification) codes are shown in the following table.
NOTE:
Refer to OBD-II general scan tool manufacturer’s instruction manual to access freeze frame data (MODE
$02).
