Table 1: | Engine Control Module Scan Tool Data |
Table 2: | Engine Control Module (ECM) Scan Tool Output Controls |
The Engine Control Module Scan Tool Data List contains all engine related parameters that are available on the scan tool. This is a master list arranged in alphabetical order and not all the parameters listed are in every engine platform.
Use the Engine Scan Tool Data List only after the following is determined:
• | The Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle is completed. |
• | No diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) |
• | On-board diagnostics are functioning properly |
The scan tool values from a properly running engine may be used for comparison with the engine you are diagnosing. The Engine Scan Tool Data List represents values that would be seen on a normally running engine.
Note: A scan tool that displays faulty data should not be used. The scan tool concern should be reported to the manufacturer. Use of a faulty scan tool can result in misdiagnosis and unnecessary parts replacement.
Only the parameters listed below are referenced in this service manual for use in diagnosis.
