7 Occasionally , you may be asked a question by the OBD II System T ester . These will always be YES or NO questions, and are answered in almost the same way you make choices in a Function Menu. In these screens, brackets <> will automatically appear next to the default response.
8 Section 2: Diagnosing with the T ester 2-1 Preliminary Checks Before using the OBD II System T ester on your vehicle, it is a good idea to perform a complete visual inspection. Y ou can find the cause of many driveability problems by just looking, thereby saving yourself a lot of time.
9 After you select OBDII Functions from the MAIN MENU the OBD II System T ester will automatically link to the PCM and check the OBD II Readiness Monitors. OBD II Readiness Monitors are strategies designed to test the operation of emission related systems or components.
10 When the tester has finished reading the DTCs, one of two possible screens is displayed. If there are no DTCs stored in the vehicles on-board computer , a System Pass screen is displayed. If there are DTCs stored in the vehicles on- board computer, then the OBD II System T ester displays the number of codes found.
11 NOTE : If you get an Operating Error message, make sure the DLC adapter cable is securely attached, and the ignition key is ON, then try again. If the problem remains, refer to Section 4: On-Line Help and Trouble-Shooting Tips . If any of these tests indicate a fault, the DTCs will be displayed in the same format as Read Codes .

25 Appendix A: V ehicle Computer Basics Basics of Computer-Controlled V ehicles This section explains the engine computer control system, the types of sensors and how the computer controls engine fuel delivery , idle speed and timing. Additional information may be found in technical support books at your local library or auto parts store.
26 The network of sensors has the job of converting information the computer needs into electrical signals the computer can understand. Signals running from sensors to the PCM are referred to as inputs. Sensors monitor the key parameters shown in the table.
27 Open and Closed Loop Modes: Open or closed loop operation refers to the way the computer is deciding how much fuel to add to the air entering the engine. During cold start and other low temperature situations, the computer operates in open loop mode.
28 About Diagnostic T rouble Codes (DTCs) Where do they come from and what are they for? Engine computers can find problems The computer systems in todays vehicles do more than control engine operations they can help you find problems, too! Special testing abilities are permanently programmed into the computer by engineers.
29 KAL makes it easy to fix computer-controlled vehicles Using the KAL OBD II System T ester to obtain trouble codes is fast and easy . T rouble codes give you valuable knowledge - whether you go for professional service or do it yourself.
30 Poorly running engine, No Malfunction Indicator Lamp Most likely , this condition is not due to computer system failures, but reading codes can still be useful as part of a basic troubleshooting procedure. Check wiring and bulb for Check Engine light failures.
31 Appendix B: Data Parameter List & Definitions All data parameters or parameter identification data (PID) listed in Appendix B were verified on actual vehicles to guarantee their accuracy . Definitions used to describe all PIDs were obtained from reliable sources and are accurate at the time of printing.
32 COOLANT (°F) (Engine Coolant T emperature - PCM input) COOLANT (°C) Display: Numeric temperature value: - 40 to 419 ( ° F) or -40 to 215 ( ° C). This is a measure of the engines coolant temperature. A voltage signal is sent to the PCM from a sensor that is in contact with the coolant.
33 IA T TEMP (°C) (Intake Air T emperature - PCM input) IA T TEMP (°F) Display: Numeric temperature value: -40 to 419 ( ° F) or -40 to 215 ( ° C) This is a measure of intake air temperature to determine correct air/fuel ratios and spark timing operations.
34 MAP (HG) (Manifold Absolute Pressure - PCM input) MAP (KP A) Display: numeric inches of Mercury (HG) or kiloPascals (KP A) The Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor converts intake manifold vacuum or pressure to an electric signal and sends it to the PCM.
35 SECONDARY AIR (Secondary Air System Status - PCM output) Display: UPSTR, DNSTR, A TMSP The secondary air injection system on newer vehicles is controlled by the PCM.
36 A/C: Air Conditioning. A/F: Air/Fuel ratio. This refers to the proportion of air and fuel delivered to the cylinder for com- bustion. For example, if you have 14 times more air than fuel (by weight) then the A/F ratio is 14:1 (read as fourteen to one).
37 CKP REF: Crankshaft Reference. CKP: Crankshaft Position Sensor . Closed Loop (C/L): This is when a control system performs an action (expecting a certain result), then checks the results and corrects its actions (if necessary) until the desired results are achieved.
38 DiagnosticT rouble Codes: Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) indicate a malfunction flagged by a vehicle com- puter . The computer will display a corre- sponding code based on a lookup table in the program of the on-board computer.
39 EGR: Exhaust Gas Recirculation. The EGR sys- tem recirculates exhaust gases back into the intake manifold to reduce NOx emis- sions. The EGR valve controls the flow of exhaust gases back into the intake mani- fold. Some EGR valves are operated with a vacuum signal while others are electrically controlled.
40 Hall Effect Sensor: This sensor is a three wire-type of sensor containing electronic circuitry . T wo wires supply power and ground, while a third wire carries the sensor signal back to the PCM. The sensor consists of a perma- nent magnet and a small module con- taining a transistorized Hall Effect switch.
41 MAF: Mass Air Flow Sensor . This sensor mea- sures the amount of air entering the engine using a wire or film heated to a specific tem- perature. Incoming air cools the wire. The MAF sensor sends a frequency or voltage signal (depending on sensor type) to the PCM based on the voltage required to main- tain that temperature.
42 delivered (The PCM assumes everything in the fuel system is performing properly). In open loop operation, the PCM does not check the actual amount of fuel delivered. Thus, a faulty fuel injector or incorrect fuel pressure can change the amount of fuel delivered and the PCM would not know it.
43 PCM uses sensors to measure such things as throttle position, coolant temperature, engine speed, incoming air mass and tem- perature, etc. SFI or SEFI: Sequential Fuel Injection or Sequential Elec - tronic Fuel Injection. A fuel injection system that uses one or more injectors for each cyl- inder .
44 VIN: V ehicle Identification Number . This is the factory-assigned vehicle serial number . This number is stamped on a number of locations throughout the vehicle, but the most prominent location is on top of the dashboard on the drivers side, vis- ible from outside the vehicle.
