Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Fast Codes
At start of KOEO SELF-TEST and after Wide Open Throttle (WOT) request in KOER SELF-TEST, PCM outputs short bursts of information, known as FAST CODES, which were used by manufacturer during assembly. These codes contain the identical information as slow codes, but are transmitted at 100 times the normal rate. With most equipment (except Super Star II tester), these code bursts are not visible. An entire code sequence lasts for less than1/2 second.
