Using the Code Reader

CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE

„If an Error message is shown on the

Code Reader’s LCD display, it indicates there is a communication problem. This means that the Code Reader is unable to communicate with the vehicle's computer. Do the following:

-Turn the ignition key off, wait 5 seconds and turn the key

back on to reset the computer. Press the LINK button to re-link to the vehicle.

-Make sure your vehicle is OBD 2 compliant. See VEHICLES COVERED on page 4 for vehicle compliance verification information.

6.Read and interpret the Diagnostic Trouble Codes using the LCD display and the green, yellow and red LEDs.

The green, yellow and red LEDs are used (with the LCD display) as visual aids to make it easier for the user to determine engine system conditions.

„	Green LED		-	Indicates		that		all
	engine	systems		are	"OK"		and
	running normally. All monitors on the
	vehicle are active and are performing
	their diagnostic testing, and no
	trouble codes are present. A zero will
	show on the Code Reader’s LCD
	display for further confirmation.
„	Yellow	LED	-	Indicates one				of
	the following conditions:
	PENDING CODE PRESENT - If the
	yellow LED is lit, it may indicate the
	existence of a pending code. Check
	the Code Reader’s LCD display for
	confirmation.		A	pending		code		is
	confirmed by the presence of a
	numeric code and the word PENDING
	on the Code Reader’s LCD display. If
	no pending code is shown, the yellow
	LED indicates Monitor Status (see the
	following).
	MONITOR STATUS - If the Code
	Reader’s LCD display shows a zero
	(indicating there are no DTCs present
	in the vehicle's computer), but the
	yellow LED is lit, it indicates a
	"Monitor Has Not Run" status. This
	means that some of the Monitors on
	the vehicle have not yet finished their
	diagnostic self-testing. This condition
	is confirmed by one or more blinking
