1. READ DATA LIST
HINT: Using the intelligent tester to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.

HINT: "3" is OK but "1" is NG → ECM failure "1" is OK but "2" is NG → DTC output or ECM failure "3" is OK but cruise indicator does not turn on → CRUISE MAIN indicator, wire harness, or ECM failure
2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST
HINT: Using the intelligent tester to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.
HINT: The ignition switch must be turned on to proceed with the ACTIVE TEST using the intelligent tester.

1. DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the DATA LIST displayed on the intelligent tester,
you can read the value of the switch, sensor, actuator,
etc. without parts removal. Reading the DATA LIST as
the first step of troubleshooting is one way to shorten the
labor time.

Internal Control Module Random Access Memory (RAM) Error
DESCRIPTION
The ECM continuously monitors its own internal memory status, internal
circuits, and output signals
transmitted to the throttle actuator. This self-check ensures that the ECM is
functioning properly. If any
malfunction is detected, the ECM sets the appropriate DTC and illumina ...
