  • Always perform the test at a temperature above -10°C (14°F). 
  • Engine coolant temperature and EGR temperature must be verified in "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT-II before starting DTC WORK SUPPORT test. If it is out of range below, the test cannot be conducted.

    If the values are out of the ranges indicated above, park the vehicle in a cool place and allow the engine temperature to stabilize. Do not attempt to reduce the engine coolant temperature or EGR temperature with a fan or means other than ambient air. Doing so may produce an inaccurate diagnostic result. 

    *: Although CONSULT-II screen displays "-10 to 40°C (14 to 104°F)" as a range of engine coolant temperature, ignore it.
