Active Test

ACTIVE TEST

NOTE: Beware that if the connector to the intelligent tester becomes disconnected or a communication error occurs during the ACTIVE TEST, the vehicle could become inoperative (READY light OFF).

HINT: Performing an ACTIVE TEST using the intelligent tester enables components including the relay, VSV, and actuator, to be operated without removing any parts. Performing an ACTIVE TEST as the first step of troubleshooting is one method to shorten diagnostic time.

It is possible to display items in the DATA LIST during the ACTIVE TEST.




a. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
b. Turn the power switch ON (IG) and the tester ON.
c. Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/ MOBD / HV BATTERY / ACTIVE TEST.
d. Perform the ACTIVE TEST according to the display on the tester.
