CONSULT-II Inspection Procedure

EES000BL

The troubleshooting system provides four functional modes - self diagnosis, data monitor, active test and con-
trol unit part number display modes.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

1.

Connect CONSULT-II to data link connector and start the engine.

2.

Touch “START”, “ACT D/SUS” and “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”.

a.

When a malfunction item is displayed, record the item.

b.

Touch “ERASE”.

3.

A self-diagnostic result is displayed again.
If “NO SELF DIAGNOSTIC FAILURE INDICATED” is displayed,
check the item first shown on the display.

SELF-DIAG RESULTS

Self-diagnosis

The desired functional
mode can easily be
selected by touching key
on CONSULT-II.

The desired functional
mode can easily be
shown on the CONSULT-
II display.

DATA MONITOR

●

Helps locate main trouble cause according to
a self-diagnostic result.

●

Provides active damper suspension control
unit input and output monitoring and print-out
function (observation and recording).

ACTIVE TEST

●

Used to precisely locate the main cause for
trouble according to the self-diagnostic result
obtained in the monitor mode.

●

Provides operational checks of indicator light
and actuator circuits.

ECU PART NUMBER

Active damper control unit part numbers are
shown on the CONSULT-II display.

2.

Touch “START”, “ACT D/SUS” and “DATA MONITOR”.

3.

Select the signal to be monitored.

a.

When “ALL SIGNALS” is selected, touch “START”.

b.

When “SELECTION FROM MENU” is to be selected, touch
“SETTING”. “MONITOR ITEM MENU” will then be indicated on
