DTC Check / Clear
1NZ-FXE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR
DTC CHECK / CLEAR
NOTICE:
- If no DTC appears in normal mode:
On the OBD II or Techstream, check the pending fault code using the Continuous Test Results function (Mode 7 for SAE J1979).
- When the diagnosis system is changed from normal mode to check mode or vice versa, all DTCs and freeze frame data recorded in normal mode are erased. Before changing modes, always check and make a note of DTCs and freeze frame data.
HINT:
- DTCs which are stored in the ECM can be displayed on Techstream. Techstream can display current and pending DTCs.
- Some DTCs are not set if the ECM does not detect the same malfunction again during a second consecutive driving cycle. However, malfunctions detected on only 1 occasion are stored as pending DTCs.
