Note
Intelligent tester only:
When the diagnosis system is changed from normal mode to check mode, or vice versa, all the DTCs and freeze frame data recorded in normal mode are erased. Before changing modes, always check and make a note of any DTCs and freeze frame data.
CHECK DTC (using the intelligent tester)

Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.

CHECK DTC (not using the intelligent tester)
Turn the ignition switch ON.
Using SST, connect terminals 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
Read DTCs by observing the MIL. If no DTC is detected, the MIL blinks as shown in the illustration.
Example
DTCs 12 and 31 (2) are detected and the MIL starts displaying the DTCs as shown in the illustration. The MIL blinking pattern of DTC 12 will be displayed first.
A 2.5 second pause will occur. This pause will occur between the MIL blinking patterns of each DTC.
The MIL blinking pattern of DTC 31 will be displayed.
A 4.5 second pause will occur. This pause will occur when the MIL blinking pattern is the last of a string of multiple DTCs.
The MIL will repeat the display of the string of DTCs again.
