DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check the DFI and MFI system DTC.
(1)
cautionTo prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to "How to connect the Scan Tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) ."
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), perform DFI and MFI system DTC (Refer to GROUP 13A - Diagnosis, Diagnostic Function ).
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
