C. Clear Fault Code
This function enables you to erase the codes from the vehicle after reading the retrieved codes from the vehicle and
certain repairs have been carried out. Before performing this function, make sure the vehicle's ignition key is in the ON
position with the engine off.
Clearing DTCs does not fix the problem(s) that caused the code(s) to be set. If proper repairs to correct the problem
that caused the code(s) to be set are not made, the code(s) will appear again and the check engine light will illuminate
as soon as the problem that cause the DTC to set manifests itself.
On the diagnostic function selection screen, tap Clear Fault Code, a confirmation dialog box will appear.
Tap YES, the system will automatically delete the currently existing trouble code.
*Note: After clearing, you should retrieve trouble codes once more or turn ignition on and retrieve codes again. If there are still
some trouble codes in the system, please troubleshoot the code using a factory diagnosis guide, then clear the code and
recheck.
D. Read Data Stream
This option lets you view and capture (record) real-time Live Data. This data including current operating status for
parameters and/or sensor information can provide insight on overall vehicle performance. It can also be used to guide
vehicle repair.
*Notes:
 If you must drive the vehicle in order to perform a troubleshooting procedure, ALWAYS have a second person help you.
Trying to drive and operate the diagnostic tool at the same time is dangerous, and could cause a serious traffic accident.
 The real time (Live Data) vehicle operating information (values/status) that the on-board computer supplies to the tool for
each sensor, actuator, switch, etc. is called Parameter Identification Data (PID).
On the diagnostic function selection screen, tap Read Data Stream, the following screen will appear.
On-screen Buttons:
Select Page: Tap to select all items of the current page.
Select All: Tap to select all items. To select certain data stream item, just check the box before the item name.
Unselect: Tap to deselect all data stream items.
OK: Tap to confirm and jump to the next step.
After selecting the desired items, tap OK to enter the data stream reading page.
