View Freeze Frame Data

 

freeze frame data allows the technician to view the vehicle's operating parameters at the moment a dtc (diagnostic trouble code)  

 

is detected. for example, the parameters may include engine speed (rPm), engine coolant temperature (ect), or vehicle speed   

               sensor (VSS) etc. this information will aid the technician by allowing the parameters to be checked for diagnostic and repair  

 

 purposes.

 

1) to view freeze frame data, use the ScroLL button to select View freeze frame from diagnostic menu and press the enter   

 button.

 

2) Wait a few seconds while the scan tool validates the PId mAP.

 

3) If retrieved information covers more than one screen, use the ScroLL button, as necessary.

 

If there is no freeze frame data available, an advisory message “no freeze frame data stored!” shows on the display.

 

the number “x” to the right of the screen indicates sequence of display.

 

the red navigation bar to the right of the screen indicates sequence of highlighted item.

 

4) Press enter button to return to previous screen.

I/M Readiness

 

I/m readiness function is used to check the operation of the emission System on eoBd compliant vehicles. It is an excellent  

 

 

function to use prior to having a vehicle inspected.

 

CaUTION

 - By clearing trouble codes you also clear the readiness status for the individual emission system readiness tests. In order  

 

to reset these monitors, the vehicle must be driven through a complete drive cycle with no trouble codes in the memory. times for  

 

reset vary depending on vehicle.

 

Some latest vehicle models may support two types of I/m readiness tests:

 

A. Since dtcs cleared - indicates status of the monitors since the dtcs are erased.

 

B. this drive cycle - indicates status of monitors since the beginning of the current drive cycle.

 

An I/m readiness Status result of “no” does not necessarily indicate that the vehicle being tested will fail the I/m inspection.  

 

 

one or more such monitors may be allowed to be “not ready” to pass the emissions inspection.

  

“oK” - Indicates that a particular monitor being checked has completed its diagnostic testing.

 

“Inc” - Indicates that a particular monitor being checked has not completed its diagnostic testing.

 

“n/A” - the monitor is not supported on that vehicle.

 

1) use the ScroLL button to select I/m readiness from diagnostic menu and press enter button. 

 

2) Wait a few seconds while the scan tool validates the PId mAP.

 

3) If the vehicle supports both types of tests, then both types will be shown on the screen for selection.
