- Start the engine and idle it.
- Go into the Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) menu.
- Watch EFI-425, wait until the status of EFI-425 switches to tested. This can take up to 15 minutes after the engine has been started.
- Read off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

If EFI-425 is stored they should have intermittent status.
