PID Value Charts: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery.
Ensure following conditions are met before comparing scan tool data to typical data value found in appropriate PID value chart:
- Engine is idling unless checking a value at a specified RPM.
- Throttle is closed unless checking a value at a specified RPM.
- Vehicle is in Park or Neutral.
- Vehicle is operating in closed loop.
- Vehicle accessories are turned off.
Compare actual PID values on scan tool to PID values found in appropriate PID value chart.
