• Code Scanner is Connected.

• HOLD/TEST Switch is in TEST

Position.

WARNING: The next step involves
starting the engine. Observe
safety precautions.

• Always operate vehicle in a well

ventilated area.

Do NOT inhale exhaust gases –
they are very poisonous!

• Set the parking brake.

• Put shift lever in PARK (automatic

transmission) or NEUTRAL

• Block the drive wheels.

• Stay away from moving engine

parts.

2) Start the Engine.

• Allow engine to idle until it reaches

normal operating temperature.
Then...

• Run engine at 2000 RPM for 2

minutes.

4) Turn Engine Off, Then Immediately

Restart Engine and Allow to Idle.

Note: Vehicles with Throttle Kicker
actuator – the Throttle Kicker will
extend (increasing RPM) and remain
so throughout the test.

5) Get Engine Identification (ID) Code

from the Flashing STO Light.

• An engine ID code is sent after a

few seconds to signal the beginning
of KOER Self-Test.

• Count flashes on the STO light.

(Ignore any flashes lasting longer
than 1 second.)

– 6 cylinder: 3 Flashes.

– 8 cylinder: 4 Flashes.

Note: If the light does not flash or
flashes the wrong number, go back and
repeat SELF-TEST PART 3 starting
with Step 1. If the light still does not
flash correctly, you have a problem
which must be repaired before
proceeding. Refer to the vehicle service
manual “Self-Test Not Functional” (or
similar title) troubleshooting chart.

6) Test Knock Sensor (if used on

vehicle).

• If vehicle does not use knock sensor,

skip this step and go to Step 7.

• Do the following immediately after

engine ID code is sent:

– Simulate spark knock by placing a
3/8 inch socket extension (or similar
tool) on manifold near base of knock
sensor.
