- Turn ignition switch OFF, wait at least 10 seconds and then turn ON.
- Check engine coolant temperature in MODE 1 with GST.
Engine coolant temperature: Less than 40°C (104°F)
If the value is out of range, park the vehicle in a cool place and allow the engine temperature to stabilize. Do not attempt to lower the coolant temperature with a fan or means other than ambient air. Doing so may produce an inaccurate diagnostic result.
- Start engine and let it idle monitoring the engine coolant temperature value. When the engine coolant temperature reaches 70°C (158°F), immediately go to the next step.
- Maintain the following conditions for at least 1 minute.
- Engine speed: 1,200 - 3,600 RPM
- Vehicle speed: More than 10 km/h (6 MPH)
- Selector lever: Suitable position
- Stop vehicle.
- Turn ignition switch OFF, wait at least 10 seconds and then turn ON.
- Repeat step 3 to 5.
- Select MODE 3 with GST.
- If DTC is detected, go to "DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE ".
- When using GST, DTC Confirmation Procedure should be performed twice as much as when using CONSULT-II because GST cannot display MODE 7 (1st trip DTC) concerning this diagnosis. Therefore, using CONSULT-II is recommended.
