Freeze Frame Data
- FREEZE FRAME DATAΒ
HINT:
- When a DTC is detected or the ABS operates, the skid control ECU stores the current vehicle (sensor) state as freeze frame data.
- The skid control ECU stores the number of times (maximum: 31) the ignition switch has been turned from OFF to ON since the last time the ABS was activated. However, if the vehicle is stopped, the vehicle is driven at 7 km/h (4.3 mph) or less, or a DTC is detected, the ECU will not count the next time the ignition switch is turned from OFF to ON.
- Freeze frame data at the time the ABS operates: The skid control ECU stores data or updates stored data when the ABS operates. This data is erased when the ECU stores data at the time a DTC is detected.
- Freeze frame data at the time a DTC is detected: When the ECU stores data at the time a DTC is detected, the data will not be updated until the data is cleared.
- Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- From the display on the tester, select FREEZE FRAME DATA.FREEZE FRAME DATA
