    NG : REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY  (See REMOVAL  )

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER OR TECHSTREAM (TACHOMETER) 
    1. Connect an intelligent tester or a Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Engine start and turn the tester on.
    3. Operate the intelligent tester or Techstream according to the display and select "DATA LIST" or "Data List" (See DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST  ).
      1. Intelligent tester

        BODY / COMBINATION METER / DATA LIST

        Item Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
        TACHOMETER Engine speed
        Min.: 0
        Max.: 12,750
        Approximately same as actual engine speed (When engine is running) Unit: rpm
      2. Techstream

        Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List: 

        BODY ELECTRICAL / COMBINATION METER / DATA LIST
