Scan Tool Testing and Procedures

The scan tool, when plugged into the DLC, becomes part of the vehicle's electronic system. The scan tool can perform the following functions:
- Display ABS and VES data.
- Display and clear ABS and VES Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
- Provide diagnostic testing for intermittent conditions.

Verify the proper system operation and the absence of DTCs after completing the clearing procedure.

SELF-DIAGNOSTICS
The Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) contains sophisticated on-board diagnostics. When a Scan Tool accesses the EBCM on-board diagnostics, the EBCM on-board diagnostics identify the source of any system malfunction as specifically as possible. The EBCM on-board diagnostics also diagnose whether the malfunction is intermittent. There are 3 VES Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that assist with diagnostics.
The following actions occur when using the Scan Tool:
- The Scan Tool specifically identifies the last DTC.
- The specific data stores at the time of the malfunction.
- Information about the first five DTCs set and the last DTC set becomes available.
- The input and output can be monitored.
- Malfunction confirmation and repair verification are enabled.
