[OBD-II] Before an
OBD-II vehicle is
scanned, the vehicle
computer and the EZ-
SCAN scanner will 
initialize, do a protocol
check, then do
Readiness Tests to
make sure the vehicle
emission control 
system is working cor-
rectly. (VPW, PWM, ISO
9141, Keyword 2000,
and CAN (Controller
Area Network) protocols
are all supported.)

4. [OBD-II] The scanner will

indicate the MIL status
(Malfunction Indicator Lamp,
or Check Engine Light), 

ON

or 

OFF

.

If there are Trouble Codes
stored in the OBD-II system,
the scanner will display the
codes as they are read from
the vehicle computer. (These
codes can also be viewed
later. See “View Trouble
Codes-OBD-II, GM, Chrysler”
on page 20.)
