Scan Tool Output Control | Additional Menu Selection(s) | Description | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Crankshaft Position Variation Learn | -- | Enables the powertrain control module (PCM) to learn the variations in the crankshaft position (CKP) system. The PCM will learn the variations once the following conditions are met:
The PCM learns the variation values on the deceleration from fuel cut-OFF. | ||||||
Cylinder Power Balance | Fuel System | Enables/Disables a cylinder by turning OFF the fuel injector to the cylinder. The fuel injector is normally enabled. The PCM disables the fuel injector when the following conditions are met:
When the Disable is selected the PCM turns the injector OFF for 30 seconds. During this period, the engine operates with a misfire. | ||||||
EGR Solenoid | Engine Output Controls | Activates the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) solenoid that controls EGR valve position. The normal commanded state is None. The system will increase or decrease the amount of EGR opening by 10 percent increments within a range of 0-100 percent. The system remains in the commanded state for a maximum of 30 seconds, or until cancelled by the scan tool. Once the 30 second timer has expired output control is not allowed for 60 seconds. If the engine is running, too much EGR will result in a rough idle and/or stalling. | ||||||
EVAP Purge Solenoid | Engine Output Controls/EVAP System | Activates the evaporative emission (EVAP) purge valve. The normal commanded state is None. The system will increase or decrease the amount of EVAP purge valve opening by 10 percent increments within a range of 0-100 percent. The system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the tool or the fuel tank pressure (FTP) exceeds 32 mm Hg (17 in H20). | ||||||
EVAP Purge/Seal | Engine Output Controls/EVAP System | This control enables two functions. One function increases or decreases the amount of purge by changing the duty cycle of the purge valve and commanding the vent ON, non-venting. The normal commanded state of both valves is None. The system will increase or decrease the amount of EVAP purge valve opening by 10 percent increments within a range of 0-100 percent. The second function seals the system after using the purge function to obtain a specific amount of FTP. When activated the purge valve is commanded to 0 percent and the vent valve is commanded ON, non-venting. Both functions remain in the commanded state until one of the following conditions occurs:
| ||||||
EVAP Test | Service Bay Test | Activates the Service Bay Test to verify the integrity of the EVAP system. The scan tool initiates the test when the following conditions are met:
| ||||||
EVAP Vent Solenoid | Engine Output Controls/EVAP System | Activates the EVAP vent solenoid. The normal commanded state is None. When commanded ON, the vent valve switches to non-venting. The system remains in the commanded state until one of the following conditions occurs:
| ||||||
Fuel Injector Balance | Fuel System | Enables the fuel injector in order to verify proper fuel injector flow. The PCM will pulse the selected injector when the following conditions are met:
The selected fuel injector can only be flowed/pulsed once per ignition cycle. | ||||||
Fuel Pump | Engine Output Controls | Controls the fuel pump relay. The normal commanded state is None. When commanded ON/OFF, the PCM turns the fuel pump ON/OFF. If the engine is running, and the fuel pump is commanded OFF, the engine will stall. The system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the scan tool. | ||||||
Fuel Trim Enable | Fuel System | Disables the PCMs ability to learn new fuel trim parameters. The system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the scan tool. | ||||||
Fuel Trim Reset | Fuel System | Activates the reset of fuel trim data in all of the fuel trim cells. | ||||||
Loop Status | Engine Output Controls | Controls the system loop status. The commanded states include None, Open, or Closed. The normal commanded state is None. When commanded Open or Closed, the system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the scan tool. | ||||||
Malfunction Indicator Lamp | Engine Output Controls | Controls the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). The commanded states include None, ON, and OFF. When commanded ON or OFF, the system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the scan tool. | ||||||
Misfire Graph | -- | Graphs the accumulated misfires occurring in each cylinder. The scan tool allows for a reset of the misfire graph. | ||||||
O2S Heater Control | Engine Output Controls | Activates the HO2S heater. The commanded states include None, ON, and OFF. The normal commanded state is None. On a cold engine, with the key ON, engine OFF, the HO2S signal will continue to drop below bias when commanded ON. The system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the tool. | ||||||
RPM Control | IAC System | Activates the idle air control (IAC) valve to change engine RPM. The normal commanded state is None. To enable the RPM control, all instruction on the scan tool must be completed. The system will increase or decrease the RPM within a range of 400-2,000 RPM. The set step value changes the RPM by increments of 25 RPM, 100-500 RPM. The system remains in the commanded state until cancelled by the tool. |
