ACTIVE TEST
The active test is used to determine and identify details of a malfunction, based on self-diagnosis test results and data obtained in the DATA MONITOR. In response to instructions from CONSULT, instead of those from chassis control module on the vehicle, a drive signal is sent to the actuator to check its operation.
CAUTION:
- Never perform ACTIVE TEST while driving the vehicle.
- Always bleed air from brake system before active test.
- Never perform active test when system is malfunctioning.
NOTE:
During an active test, sometimes a chassis control warning is displayed and the master warning lamp illuminates on the information display in the combination meter; however, this is not a malfunction.
