DISPLAY FUNCTIONS

14 OBD2

7. DTC Display Area - Displays the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

number. Each fault is assigned a code number that is specific to that
fault.

8. Test Data Display Area - Displays DTC definitions, Freeze Frame

data, and other pertinent test information messages.

9. FREEZE FRAME icon - Indicates that there is Freeze Frame data

from “Priority Code” (Code #1) stored in the vehicle’s computer
memory.

10. PERMANENT icon - Indicates the currently displayed DTC is a

“Permanent” code.

11. PENDING icon - Indicates the currently displayed DTC is a

“Pending” code.

12. MIL icon - Indicates the status of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp

(MIL). The MIL icon is visible only when a DTC has commanded the
MIL on the vehicle’s dashboard to light.

13. Code Number Sequence - The Diagnostic Tool assigns a

sequence number to each DTC that is present in the computer’s
memory, starting with “01.” This number indicates which code is
currently displayed. Code number “01” is always the highest priority
code, and the one for which “Freeze Frame” data has been stored.

If “01” is a “Pending” code, there may or may not be
“Freeze Frame” data stored in memory.

14. Code Enumerator - Indicates the total number of codes retrieved

from the vehicle’s computer.
