Scan Tool Data List: Notes

The RTD scan tool data list contains all the real time damping system related parameters that are available on the scan tool. The parameters in the list are arranged in alphabetical order. The column, Data List, indicates the location of the parameter within the scan tool menu selections.

Use the RTD scan tool data list as directed by a diagnostic table or in order to supplement the diagnostic procedures. Begin all of the diagnostic procedures with the RTD Diagnostice System Check. Use the RTD scan tool data list only after the following is determined:

• The RTD Diagnostic System Check is complete.
• The on board diagnostics are operating correctly.
• No diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are displayed.

The typical scan tool data values are an average of the displayed values recorded from normally operating vehicles. The typical scan tool data values are intended to represent what a normally functioning system would display with certain preliminary settings. The values you get may vary slightly due to a low battery charge or other reasons. But the values should be very close.

Use only the parameters listed in the tables for diagnosis. If a scan tool reads other parameters, the values are not recommended for use in diagnosis. Refer to Scan Tool Data Definitions  for further detailed information.
