3) When the cooling fan starts running, release the accelerator pedal and wait until the cooling fan stops running.
2. Connect the SST (WDS or equivalent) to the DLC-2.
3. Verify that the engine speed (WDS: RPM) is as follows using the PID/data monitor function of the SST (WDS or equivalent) as follows:
Idle speed No load 650 - 750
