    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Data List / Auxiliary Batt Temperature.
    4. Read the Data List.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      -40°C (-40°F) A
      215°C (419°F) B
      Same as actual temperature C
    5. Turn the power switch off.

    B → See step   5 

    C → See step   7 

    A: Go to next step 

  3. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (CHECK FOR OPEN)
