  • Futa Nambari: After repairs are made, this function clears the DTCs from the ECU and turns off the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), pia inajulikana kama Taa ya Injini ya Kuangalia. Note: Ensure the underlying issue is resolved before erasing codes, as they may reappear if the problem persists.
  • View Fanya Data ya Fremu: When an emission-related fault occurs, the ECU records certain vehicle operating conditions at that moment. This "freeze frame" data includes parameters like engine RPM, vehicle speed, mass air flow, engine load, fuel pressure, fuel trim, and engine coolant temperature, providing a snapshot of the vehicle's state when the fault was detected.

  • Utayari wa I / M: This function checks the status of the vehicle's emission-related monitoring systems. It indicates whether various monitors (e.g., misfire monitor, fuel system monitor, O2 sensor monitor, EVAP system monitor) have completed their diagnostic cycles. This is crucial for annual smog checks.
  • Vehicle Information (VIN, Cal ID, CVN): Retrieve the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), Calibration ID (Cal ID), and Calibration Verification Numbers (CVN) from the vehicle's ECU. This is useful for verifying vehicle details.
  • Utiririshaji wa Data ya Moja kwa Moja: View real-time operational parameters of the vehicle, such as engine RPM, vehicle speed, coolant temperature, and fuel system status. This data can help diagnose intermittent problems.
