ACTIVE TEST






HINT: Using the hand-held tester's ACTIVE TEST allows relay, VSV, actuator, and other items to be operated without removing any parts. Reading the ACTIVE TEST early in troubleshooting is one way to save time. The DATA LIST can be displayed during the ACTIVE TEST.

a. Connect the hand-held tester (with CAN VIM) to the DLC3.
b. Turn the ignition switch ON.
c. Perform the ACTIVE TEST by following the directions on the tester screen.
