DATA LIST
Tech Tips
Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
Note
In the table below, the values listed under Normal Condition are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
Warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Battery Voltage | Battery voltage | Min.: 0 V Max.: 65.535 V |
11 to 14 V: Idling | Malfunction in the battery voltage can be the cause of malfunction |
| Alternator Output Duty | LIN terminal output (charging control signal) | Min.: 0% Max.: 399.993% |
Changes in accordance with the generator output: During charging control | Malfunction of the charging control system can be the cause of malfunction |
| Alt Vol - Non Active Test | Requested voltage when regulator forced drive is not executed | Min.: 0 V Max.: 79.998 V |
Changes in accordance with the battery fluid temperature and driving condition (13.5 to 14.35 V): After engine started | Malfunction of the charging control system can be the cause of malfunction |
| Alt Vol - Active Test | Requested voltage when regulator forced drive is executed | Min.: 0 V Max.: 79.998 V |
Required instruction voltage value when the Active Test "Control the Voltage of Alternator" is executed (12.5 to 14.6 V): After engine started | Malfunction of the charging control system can be the cause of malfunction |
| Previous Trip Alternator Max Output Time | Generator maximum generating time during previous drive | Min.: 0 sec Max.: 65535 sec |
- | - |
| Initial Engine Battery Minimum Voltage | Minimum battery voltage at engine start | Min.: 0 V Max.: 25.5 V |

Tech Tips
Normal Condition: If no idling conditions are specified, the shift lever should be in N (Neutral) or P, and the A/C switch and all accessory switches should be off.
ACTIVE TEST
Tech Tips
Using the GTS to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.
According to the display on the GTS, perform the Active Test.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Control Range | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Control the Voltage of Alternator | Requested output voltage of generator regulator during forced activation | Between 12.5 and 14.6 V | Test is possible after engine start |
