Repeatability Verification Procedure
- Warm up the engine to allow the engine coolant temperature to reach 80 °C {176 °F} or more.
- Verify that OBD-II information (such as FREEZE FRAME DATA) has been obtained and recorded.
- Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS. (See CLEARING DTC [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5)] .)

- Repeat Step 5 to 7 operations above 5 times.
- Try to reproduce the malfunction by driving the vehicle for5 min based on the values in the FREEZE FRAME DATA/snapshot data.NOTE:
- Match the engine coolant temperature in the recorded FREEZE FRAME DATA/snapshot data, the vehicle speed, and engine speed values to the best extent possible while driving the vehicle.
