Warning! Ensure that the vehicle is safely raised. Check that no objects are caught in the tire treads.

Caution! The test must be carried out on a raised vehicle so that all four wheels are free to turn, with attachment a long way out on the link arms, so as not to damage the drive shafts.

Note! If the vehicle has STC or DSTC, the function must be deactivated.

Hint: Read the oil pressure sensor signal using parameter readout, graphical display.

- Ignition off.
- Raise the vehicle so that all the wheels hang free.
- The parking brake must not be engaged.
