„ The computer is now in Cylinder
Balance Test mode, and will start
cutting fuel to each cylinder in
sequence to determine if all the
cylinders are contributing equally. It
may take up to five minutes be-
fore the test results are transmit-
ted to the Diagnostic Tool.
8. If the vehicle's computer fails to enter Cylinder Balance Test mode,
do the following:
„ Lightly press the accelerator pedal again as described in step 7
above.
9. After the Cylinder Balance Test is completed, the test results are
sent to the Diagnostic Tool.
„
The computer compares the power
contribution that each cylinder
makes to engine operation.
10. If all cylinders are contributing equally,
the computer determines that power
distribution is normal and a “System
Pass” message will display.
If the computer detects a problem with a cylinder(s) when
performing the initial Cylinder Balance Test, it needs to repeat
the test two more times to properly determine which cylinder or
cylinders are malfunctioning. If this is the case, the Diagnostic
Tool will display the “Lightly press the accelerator half way and
release” message again instead of the “System Pass”.
Proceed to step 11.
11. If a cylinder is not contributing at the same level as the other
cylinders, the computer prompts you to repeat the test two more
times by displaying the “Lightly press the accelerator half way and
release” message again. Each time the message displays, perform
the procedures as instructed.
12. After the repeat Cylinder Balance tests
have completed, the computer will identify
which cylinder (or cylinders) are not con-
tributing equally, and will send this infor-
mation to the Diagnostic Tool’s LCD dis-
play.
„ If any weak cylinders are identified,
consult the vehicle’s service repair
manual to perform further testing
and/or repairs.
Relay and Solenoid Test (Output State Check)
The "Output State Check" is a special program in the vehicle's computer
that allows the user to energize (turn ON) and de-energize (turn OFF),
on command, most of the actuators (relays and solenoids) that are
controlled by the computer.
