Scan Tool Testing and Procedures





ENGINE HOOD / DOOR: LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT DOOR OPENER SYSTEM: DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST

1. READ DATA LIST

HINT
Using the Techstream to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful as intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring are disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Read the Data List on the tester's screen.
