With OBD II Scan Tool

HOW TO DISPLAY AND READ DTC's WITH OBD II SCAN TOOL

(1) Prepare the OBD II scan tool (complying with SAE J 1978) or LEXUS hand-held tester.





(2) Connect the OBD II scan tool or LEXUS hand- held tester to DLC3 under the instrument panel lower pad.
(3) Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the OBD II scan tool or LEXUS hand-held tester switch ON.
(4) Use the OBD II scan tool or LEXUS hand-held tester to check the DTCs and freeze frame data; note them down. (For operating instructions, see the OBD II scan tool's instruction book.)
(5) Refer to Trouble Code Descriptions to confirm the details of the DTCs.
Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions

NOTICE: When simulating symptoms with an OBD II scan tool (excluding LEXUS hand-held tester) to check the DTCs, use normal mode. For code on the DTC chart subject to "2 trip detection logic", turn the ignition switch OFF after the symptom is simulated the first time. Then repeat the simulation process again. When the problem has been simulated twice, the MIL lights up and the DTCs are recorded in the ECM.
