Section 7 – Chrysler Diagnostics

Due to different processor calibrations used, the function list for a partic- ular vehicle may or may not appear as shown. Based on the vehicle infor- mation entered at the Vehicle Setup menu, the tool recognizes the computer system installed.

If an Error Message displays, make sure the adapter cable is securely attached, and the ignition key is ON. Cycle the ignition key to OFF for 10 seconds, then ON. This may be required to reset the computer. If required, select YES to try again. If the problem still exists, refer to “Error Mes- sages” on page 8-2.

This section covers Chrysler vehicles manufactured from 1989 to 1999. Chrysler vehicles manufactured from 2000 to present automatically use Global OBD II Diagnostics.

Screens and functions may differ slightly for vehicle make and year.
