Vehicle Status
This function checks the current condition of the vehicle, such as the communications
protocols of OBDII modules, quantity of fault codes, and the status of the malfunction
indicator light (MIL).
4.8 Exiting Diagnostics
The Diagnostics application remains open as long as there is an active communication
with the vehicle. You must exit the diagnostics operation to stop all communications
with the vehicle before closing the Diagnostics application.
NOTE
Damage to the vehicle electronic control module (ECM) may occur if the
communication is disrupted. Ensure all forms of communication link such as data cable,
USB cable, and wireless or wired network, are properly connected throughout the test.
Exit all interfaces before disconnecting the test cable and power supply.
