Section 3: Diagnostic Trouble Code Lookup
Code Lookup is a built-in OBD II Generic Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) database.
The database does not include manufacturer specific DTC definitions, only generic.
To look up code definitions, select Code Lookup from either the MAIN MENU or the
OBD II Function Menu, then press the ENTER key.
The OBD II System Tester will display the Code Lookup screen. When entering codes
it is only necessary to enter the last three numbers. The first two characters (P0) of
the DTC are set for OBD II Powertrain.
When the Code Lookup screen is first dis-
played, a P0000 is displayed in the columns
that mark the code digit locations. Underneath
the third digit there is a
^
symbol. The
^
symbol is used as a cursor to identify the digit
that will change when the UP/DOWN arrow keys are pressed to increase/decrease
the digit. The cursor starts at the third digit because the fourth and fifth are fixed
(P0xxx).
_ Entering Third Digit (P0x00)
Set the third digit by using the UP and
DOWN arrow keys to scroll the third digit
characters until the desired character is
displayed.
_ Entering Second Digit (P00x0)
To enter the second code digit, press the
LEFT/RIGHT arrow key to move the cursor
^
one column to the right. Use the UP/
DOWN arrow keys to increase/decrease
the digit.
_ Entering First Digit (P000x)
To enter the first or final digit, press the
LEFT/RIGHT arrow key to move the cursor
^
to the last column on the right. Use the
UP/DOWN arrow keys to increase/de-
crease the digit.
_ Editing A Code Number
If you make a mistake on any of the digits, simply use the LEFT/ RIGHT arrow key
to move the cursor
^
underneath the digit you wish to change. Then use the UP
and DOWN arrow keys to change the digits value.
