CHECK OF FREEZE FRAME DATA

The freeze frame data can be checked by using the scan tool (GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction).

When detecting fault and storing the DTC, the ECU connected to CAN bus line obtains the data before the determination of the DTC and the data when the DTC is determined, and then stores the ECU status of that time. By analyzing each data from scan tool, the troubleshooting can be performed more efficiently.

The displayed items are as the table below.

DISPLAY ITEM LIST

NOTE: *: If a failure occurs to both the ABS-ECU, ASC-ECU and ETACS-ECU, 0000 mile or FFFF mile is displayed on the scan tool MB991958.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART

CAUTION

• During troubleshooting, a DTC code associated with other system may be set when the ignition switch is turned on with connector(s) disconnected. On completion, check all systems for DTC code(s). If DTC code(s) are set, erase them all.
• When the combination meter is required to be replaced as a result of the troubleshooting, the current driving distance and number of elapsed days to be used for service reminder function must be entered into the meter after the replacement. Therefore, read "Integrated mileage for reminder," "Integrated days for reminder," "Mileage until Extra reminder," "Months until Extra reminder," and "Current Schedule" from the meter before the replacement using the special function of scan tool MB991958, and note them. For the operation method of scan tool MB991958. If "Integrated mileage for reminder" or "Integrated days for reminder" cannot be read by the scan tool MB991958, follow the method described below.

1. For the driving distance for check warning, use the driving distance displayed on the multi information display.
2. For the elapsed days for check warning, calculate the number of elapsed days from the delivery date to the customer (service remainder function start date) and current date.
