DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
1. READ DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester's DATA LIST allows switch,
sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without
removing any parts. Reading the DATA LIST early in
troubleshooting is one way to save time.
(a) Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to the
DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and press the intelligent
tester main switch ON.
(c) Read the DATA LIST by following the directions on
the tester screen.

2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST
HINT:
Performing the intelligent tester's ACTIVE TEST allows
relays, the VSV, actuators and other items to be
operated without removing any parts. Performing the
ACTIVE TEST early in troubleshooting is one way to
save time. The DATA LIST can be displayed in the
ACTIVE TEST.
(a) Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to the
DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the intelligent
tester ON.
(c) Perform the ACTIVE TEST by following the prompts
on the tester.
