HINT:

Start the inspection from step 1 when using the hand-held tester, and start from step  2 when not using the hand-held tester.

  1. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and press the hand-held tester main switch on.
    3. Select the item below in the DATA LIST, and read the displays on the hand-held tester.

    ALL:
