*: The following emission-related diagnostic information is cleared when the ECM memory is erased.
Diagnostic trouble codes
1st trip diagnostic trouble codes
Freeze frame data
1st trip freeze frame data
System readiness test (SRT) codes
Test valuesDiagnostic 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.*
Data monitor Input/Output data in the ECM can be read.
Data monitor (SPEC)Input/Output of the specification for Basic fuel schedule, AFM, A/F feedback control value and the
other data monitor items can be read.
CAN diagnostic support
monitorThe results of transmit/receive diagnosis of CAN communication 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 & SRT confirmation The status of system monitoring tests and the self-diagnosis status/result can be confirmed.
Function test This mode is used to inform customers when their vehicle condition requires periodic maintenance.
ECM part number ECM part number can be read.

DIAG TROUBLE
CODE
[PXXXX]
The engine control component part/control system has a trouble code, it is displayed as PXXXX. (Refer to
EC-726, "
INDEX FOR DTC" .)
FUEL SYS-B1
“Fuel injection system status” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
One mode in the following is displayed.
Mode2: Open loop due to detected system malfunction
Mode3: Open loop due to driving conditions (power enrichment, deceleration enleanment)
Mode4: Closed loop - using oxygen sensor(s) as feedback for fuel control
Mode5: Open loop - has not yet satisfied condition to go to closed loop FUEL SYS-B2
CAL/LD VALUE [%]
The calculated load value at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
COOLANT TEMP [
C]
or [
F]The engine coolant temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
L-FUEL TRM-B1 [%]
“Long-term fuel trim” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
The long-term fuel trim indicates much more gradual feedback compensation to the base fuel schedule
than short-term fuel trim. L-FUEL TRM-B2 [%]
S-FUEL TRM-B1 [%]
“Short-term fuel trim” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
The short-term fuel trim indicates dynamic or instantaneous feedback compensation to the base fuel
schedule. S-FUEL TRM-B2 [%]
ENGINE SPEED
[rpm]
The engine speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
VEHICL SPEED
[km/h] or [mph]
The vehicle speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
