CONSULT-II Function (BCM)EKS00B81
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT-II 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 carries out CAN communication.
1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect CONSULT-II and CON-
SULT-II CONVERTER to the data link connector, then turn igni-
tion switch ON.
2. Touch "START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)".
3. Touch "BCM" on "SELECT SYSTEM" screen. If "BCM" is not indicated, go to GI-40, "
CONSULT-II Data Link
Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
