Without Scan Tool
HOW TO DISPLAY AND READ DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODESChanging Diagnostic Test Modes:
Diagnostic trouble codes can be read by switching to Diagnostic Test Mode II with key ON engine OFF.
- The number of blinks of the malfunction indicator lamp represent trouble codes in the Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-Diagnostic Results). (Either code for the 1st trip or the 2nd trip can be read.)
- Output of a diagnostic trouble code means that the indicated circuit has a malfunction. However, using Mode II or a generic scan tool (GST) will not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring, or occurred in the past and then returned to normal.
NOTES:
- Diagnostic trouble codes displayed in Diagnostic Test Mode II are assigned by INFINITI and differ from the standard OBDII "P type" codes normally displayed with CONSULT or Generic Scan Tools.
- Switching the modes is not possible when the engine is running.
- When Ignition switch is turned off during diagnosis, power to Engine Control Module (ECM) will drop after approx. 5 seconds.
The diagnosis will automatically return to Diagnostic Test Mode I.
- Turn back diagnostic test mode selector to the fully counterclockwise position whenever vehicle is in use.
