9. Perform KOER On-Demand Self Test
Purpose:
To determine if the PCM has detected any fault conditions that would cause a performance problem while the engine is running. This will perform step tests on the injection control pressure system and the exhaust back pressure system.
Step tests are PCM-controlled tests where the PCM commands a specific exhaust back pressure or injection control pressure and then measures the result. If a predetermined threshold is not reached, a fault code will be generated. This test can be performed at any engine temperature.
Recommended Procedure:
Connect the NGS Tester to the DLC under the dash. Turn off accessories. Turn A/C off. If vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary powertrain control (rpm control), it must be turned off to perform self tests.
