Freeze Frame Data [09/2014 - ]

HINT: 

The VGRS system stores data when a trouble code is stored which can be viewed using the Techstream.

  1. FREEZE FRAME DATA OF VGRS ECU (FRONT STEERING CONTROL ECU) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Chassis / VGRS / Trouble Codes.

      Chassis > VGRS > Trouble Codes 

    5. According to the display on the Techstream, select the trouble code data display with Freeze Frame Data.
