- DATA LIST HINT: Using the intelligent tester to read the DATA LIST allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators, and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non intrusive inspection can be very useful as intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the DATA LIST information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Warm up the engine. Engine switch off. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3. Engine switch on (IG) position. Turn the tester ON. Enter following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / METER / DATA LIST Check the values by referring to the table below. METER: METER DISPLAY DIAGNOSTIC REFERENCE Item Measurement Item/Range (Display) Normal Condition Diagnostic Note SPEED METER Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph) Almost same as actual vehicle speed (When driving) - TACHO METER Engine speed/Min.: 0 rpm, Max.: 12,750 rpm Almost same as actual engine speed (When engine is running) - FUEL GAUGE Fuel input signal Min.: 0, Max.: 255 Fuel gauge indicates (F): 35 Fuel gauge indicates (3/4): 85 Fuel gauge indicates (1/2): 145 Fuel gauge indicates (1/4): 186 Fuel gauge indicates (E): 205 - LIGHT RHEOSTAT Light Control Rheostat/Min.: 0, Max.: 255 Light control rheostat switch is Dark (0) --> Bright (255) - ODO/TRIP SW ODO/TRIP switch is ON/OFF ON: Switch is pushed OFF: Switch is released - TAIL CANCEL SW TAIL CANCEL switch is ON/OFF ON: Light control rheostat turns fully clockwise OFF: Light control rheostat does not turn fully clockwise - HINT: The tail cancel switch is used to cancel the link between taillight operation and dimming of the combination meter.

- ACTIVE TEST HINT: Performing the ACTIVE TEST using the intelligent tester allows the meters, indicators and so on to operate without parts removal. Performing the ACTIVE TEST as the first step of troubleshooting is one way to shorten diagnosis time. It is possible to display the DATA LIST on the intelligent tester during the ACTIVE TEST. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3. Engine switch on (IG). Turn the tester ON. Enter following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / METER / ACTIVE TEST From the display on tester, perform "ACTIVE TEST".
