Retrieving Parameter Identification (PID) Information

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Mazda B4000, 2000 Mazda B3000, and 2000 Mazda B2500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: If instructed to retrieve PID from a specified test procedure, ensure ignition is in proper position as listed in test procedure or the test will fail. This procedure may be used to verify operation of input circuitry for selected module being tested.

Connect New Generation Star (NGS) tester to Data Link Connector (DLC) and perform proper hookup procedure. See EQUIPMENT HOOKUP .
Turn ignition switch to ON position, unless otherwise instructed by specified test procedure. Rotate dial on NGS tester to DIAGNOSTIC DATA LINK menu and press trigger.
Rotate dial on NGS tester to highlight the desired module you wish to access and press trigger. Rotate dial on NGS tester to PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD and press trigger.
Rotate dial on NGS tester to highlight the PID you wish to view and press trigger. Repeat this procedure until all desired PIDs are selected. When all PIDs have been selected, press button No. 7 to view selected PIDs.
For GEM and RAP PID identification and expected values, see GEM PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION (PID) INFORMATION or RAP PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION (PID) INFORMATION table.
