Freeze Frame/Failure Records

Freeze Frame and Failure Records data may be retrieved through the DTC menu on scan tool. If more than one DTC is set review the odometer or engine run time data located in the Freeze Frame and Failure Records info to determine the most current failure.

Each time a diagnostic test reports a failure, the current engine operating conditions are recorded in the Freeze Frame buffer. A subsequent failure will update the recorded operating conditions.

Freeze Frame data can only be overwritten with data associated with a misfire or fuel trim malfunction. Data from these faults take precedence over data associated with any other fault. The Freeze Frame data will not be erased unless the associated history DTC is cleared.
