NOTE: After the Cylinder Balance Test is done, the KOER
Test Fault Codes will be saved in the Code Reader's
memory together with Cylinder Balance fault codes. To
distinguish between the KOER codes and Cylinder Balance
codes, consult the "Cylinder Balance Test Code Description
Chart" preceeding. Cylinder Balance fault codes are two
digit codes, and are defined by the following numbers: 10,
20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90. Cylinder Balance codes
will be displayed after KOER Self-Test codes.
■ If any cylinder codes were received, use "Code
Description" and "Test Results Chart" as a guide and
consult the vehicle's service manual to perform
further testing and/or repairs.
