1. DATA LIST
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.

2. ACTIVE TEST
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.

Engine Coolant Temperature / Intake Air Temperature Correlation
DESCRIPTION
The ECM calculates the difference between the readings of the coolant
temperature sensor and intake air
temperature sensor. If the difference is greater than 20°C (68°F), the ECM will
judge this as a malfunction
and will set this DTC.
