*NOTICE
GDS must be updated to version N-K-01-07-0010 or later to properly collect data.





3. Choose "Engine" under "Select System" Click "OK" and follow screen instructions for connecting to vehicle.

*NOTICE
If all values indicate "Not Supported" or "0", check to make sure you have GDS software version N-K-01-07-0010 or later. If the software version is correct, and all values show "Not Supported" or "0", the vehicle will not qualify for this data collection, as it may have received a recent ECM Update or battery replacement/reset of the data values.
