- Deactivate SELF-TEST (disconnect jumper wire). Start and run engine at 2000 RPM for 2 minutes to warm up EGO sensor. Turn engine off and wait 10 seconds. Insert jumper to activate SELF-TEST. DO NOT depress throttle during test unless a Dynamic Response code occurs.
- Start engine. The engine ID code will be displayed. Depress and release brake pedal, 1 TIME ONLY, after engine ID code has been displayed. This will test the Brake On/Off (BOO) switch.
- Run test. If Dynamic Response code 1 (10 with STAR tester) occurs, briefly accelerate engine to wide open throttle (WOT). The KEY ON/ENGINE RUNNING SELF-TEST service codes will then be displayed. Observe and record all codes.
NOTE:
The Engine ID code is 1/2 the number of cylinders (a 2 equals a 4 cylinder engine). STAR tester adds a zero to all single digit readings. A "20" on STAR tester equals a 4 cylinder engine. Some vehicles do not require a brief WOT, they will not display a 1 (10).
