CONSULT-II Functions (HEADLAMP LEVELIZER)EKS00N64
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect CONSULT-II and CON-
SULT-II CONVERTER to the data link connector, and then turn
the ignition switch ON.
2. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”.
3. Touch “HEAD LAMP LEVELIZER” on “SELECT SYSTEM”
screen. If “HEAD LAMP LEVELIZER” is not indicated, refer to
GI-35, "
CONSULT-II Data Link Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
Diagnosis mode Description
WORK SUPPORT Height sensor can be initialized.
SELF-DIAG RESULTS The result of self-diagnosis for height sensor can be displayed and erased.
DATA MONITOR Displays height sensor inputs and outputs in real time.
ACTIVE TEST Operation of headlamp aiming motor can be confirmed with “MAX”, “MID” or “MIN” touched.
ECU PART NUMBER Height sensor part number can be read.
