Description & Operation: Self-Diagnostics

Real Time Damping (RTD) contains a self-diagnostic capability to detect system failures. When a DTC is set, RTD control module may disable RTD system and send message to IPC to display message. DTCs stored by RTD control module can be displayed using IPC on-board diagnostics, or Tech 1 scan tool with appropriate cartridge.

If using Tech 1 scan tool, begin RTD system diagnosis with RTD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK  under DIAGNOSIS & TESTING. From RTD diagnostic system check, you will be directed to enter diagnostics and retrieve DTCs. Performing RTD diagnostic system check will indicate if RTD system is functioning properly. If scan tool is not available, DTCs may be retrieved uising the on-board diagnostic system. See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM  under DIAGNOSIS & TESTING.
