Reading Diagnostic Trouble Codes
OBTAINING FAULT CODES(1) Connect the Voltmeter or multi-use tester to the connector diagnosis.
(2) Read the output fault codes.
Then follow the remedy procedures according to the "FAULT CODE DESCRIPTIONS".
NOTE:
- As many as a maximum of ten fault codes, in the sequence of occurrence, can be stored in the Random Access Memory (RAM) incorporated within the control unit.
- If the number of stored fault codes or fault patterns exceeds ten, already stored fault codes will be erased in sequence beginning with the oldest.
- Do not disconnect the battery until all fault codes or fault patterns have been read out, because all stored fault codes or fault patterns will be canceled when the battery is disconnected.
(3) If the fail-safe system is activated and the transaxle is locked in 3rd gear, the fault code in the Fail-Safe Code Description will be stored in the RAM.
Three of these fault codes can be stored.
(4) The cancelation will occur if, with the transaxle locked in 3rd gear, the ignition key is turned to the OFF position, but the fault code is stored in the RAM.
