SELF DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
Refer to SCS-59, "DTC Index".
When “CRNT” is displayed on self-diagnosis result,
The system is presently malfunctioning.
When “PAST” is displayed on self-diagnosis result, System malfunction in the past is detect ed, but the system is presently normal.
Freeze frame data (FFD)
DATA MONITOR
Diagnostic test mode Function
Work Support This mode enables a technician to adjust some devices faster and more accurately.
Self Diagnostic Results Retrieve DTC from ECU and display diagnostic items.
Data Monitor Monitor the input/output signal of the control unit in real time.
CAN Diagnosis This mode displays a network diagnosis result about CAN by a diagram.
CAN Diagnostic Support
Monitor It monitors the status of CAN communication.
ECU Identification Display the ECU identification number (part number etc.) of the selected system.
Active Test Send the drive signal from CONSULT-III to the actuator. The operation check can be performed.
Item name Description
STANDARD HEIGHT LEVEL Forcibly sets vehicle height to the set standard vehicle height.
ADJUST HEIGHT INI Sets standard vehicle height.
CLEAR HEIGHT INI Erases standard vehicle height.
Item name Description
IGN COUNTER The number of times that ignition switch is turned ON after the DTC is detected is displayed.
When “0” is displayed: It indicates that the system is presently malfunctioning.
When except “0” is displayed: It indicates that system malfunction in the past is detected, but the system
is presently normal.
NOTE:
Each time when ignition switch is turned OFF to ON, numerical number increases in 1 → 2 → 3...38 → 39.
When the operation number of times exceeds 39, the number do not increase and “39” is displayed until
self-diagnosis is erased.
Monitored item (Unit) Remarks

Fail-safeINFOID:0000000006256054
If malfunction is detected, control stops.
The system may enter fail-safe mode under certain condi tions (for example, over-laden conditions) when elec-
tronic circuit is normal.
In this case, always check that the system re turns to normal by starting engine after unloading load.
DTC Inspection Priority ChartINFOID:0000000006256055
