DIAGNOSTIC MODE

The diagnostic mode is accessible only when the check
engine MIL has been activated.
If there is a diagnostic problem with the power steering
system, the power steering MIL will illuminate and blink
in place of the check engine MIL.
Use the following procedure to display diagnostic trouble
codes that were activated during current ignition cycle
causing the MIL to illuminate. Diagnostic trouble codes
will remain stored in the gauge (even if MIL turns off) until
the key is turned off.
1. If the trouble code (s) are not displayed, use the
MODE button to toggle until "CK ENG" displays on
the information display area.
2. Press and hold the MODE button to enter the
diagnostics code menu.

3. A set of three numbers will appear in the information
display area.
• The first number (located far left) can range from 0 to
9. This number represents the total number of trouble
codes present (example: 2 means there are 3 codes
present).
• The second number (located top right) can be 2 to 6
digits in length. This number equates to the suspected
area of fault (SPN).
• The third number (located bottom right) can be 1 to 2
digits in length. This number equates to the fault mode
(FMI).
4. Use the trouble code reference table in the EFI
Chapter for a description of each code.
5. If more than one code exists, press the MODE button
to advance to the next trouble code.
6. To exit diagnostic mode, press and hold MODE
button or turn ignition key OFF once the codes are
recorded.
