12.

Read and interpret Diagnostic Trouble Codes/system condition using

the display and the green, yellow and red LEDs.

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 PENDING CODE IS PRESENT – If

the yellow LED is illuminated, it may

indicate a Pending code is present.

Check the display for confirmation. A

Pending code is confirmed by the

presence of a numeric code and the

word PENDING.

. MONITOR NOT RUN STATUS – If

the 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 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. In this case, the Malfunction

Indicator (Check Engine) lamp on

the vehicle’s instrument panel will be

illuminated.
