Using the Scan Tool
CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE
36 OBD2
The green, yellow and red LEDs are used (with the display) as
visual aids to make it easier to determine engine system
conditions.
„
Green LED – Indicates that all
engine systems are “OK” and
operating normally. All monitors
supported by the vehicle have run
and performed their diagnostic
testing, and no trouble codes are
present. All Monitor icons will be
solid.
„
Yellow LED – Indicates one of the following conditions:
A . A PENDING CODE IS PRESENT –
If the yellow LED is illuminated, it
may indicate a Pending code is
present. Check the Scan Tool’s
display for confirmation. A Pending
code is confirmed by the presence of
a numeric code and the word
PENDING on the Scan Tool’s
display.
B . MONITOR NOT RUN STATUS – If
the Scan Tool’s display shows a
zero (indicating there are no DTC’s
present in the vehicle’s computer
memory), but the yellow LED is
illuminated, it may be an indication
that some of the Monitors supported
by the vehicle have not yet run and
completed their diagnostic testing.
Check the Scan Tool’s display for
confirmation. All Monitor icons that are
blinking have not yet
run and completed their diagnostic testing; all Monitor icons
that are
solid have run and completed their diagnostic testing.
„ Red LED – Indicates there is a
problem with one or more of the
vehicle’s systems. The red LED is
also used to indicate that DTC(s) are
present (displayed on the Scan
Tool’s screen). In this case, the
Malfunction Indicator (Check Engine)
lamp on the vehicle’s instrument
panel will be illuminated.
„ DTC’s that start with “P0”, “P2” and some “P3” are
considered Generic (Universal). All Generic DTC definitions
are the same on all OBD2 equipped vehicles. The Scan Tool
automatically displays the code definitions (if available) for
Generic DTC’s.
