PID Definitions

UPS - UP STREAM module is de- manding that secondary air be added at exhaust mani- folds

DNS - DOWN STREAM module is demanding secondary air be added at catalytic converter

OFF - Module is demanding no sec- ondary air to be added.

ST FTRMxy (- 100 – 99.22%)

Short-term Fuel Trim Bank calculated

value represents the short-term relation of fuel metering on a fuel-injected engine.

✓Short-term Fuel Trim calcu- lated value that has a positive percentage is a rich fuel trim and if a negative percentage is present the fuel trim is lean.

ST FLTRMx (- 100 – 99.2%)

Short-term Fuel Trim value represents the short-term relation of fuel metering on a fuel-injected engine.

✓Short-term Fuel Trim value with a positive percentage is a rich fuel trim and if a nega- tive percentage is present the fuel trim is lean.

ability. If no freeze frame data has been captured, this PID will be zero.

VEH SPEED (0 – 255 K/h) or (0 – 158 mph)

Vehicle Speed shows the speed the vehi- cle is going.

VPWR (0 - 65.535V)

Control Module Voltage is the power input

to the control module.

✓Vehicles using a 42V battery may utilize multiple voltages of different systems. There- fore, the VPWR value may be significantly different than the battery.

THR POS (0 – 100%)

Absolute Throttle Position is the position the throttle is located. The more the throt- tle is closed the less percent shown.

THROT CMD (0 – 100%)

Commanded Throttle Actuator Control is the position of the throttle. If throttle is closed the percent will be 0 and if wide open 100%.
