35. READ FREEZE FRAME DATA

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Using the Techstream, confirm the vehicle conditions recorded in the freeze frame data which were present when the DTC was stored Freeze Frame Data.

Result:

HINT
- Try to operate the vehicle under the conditions recorded in the freeze frame data which were present when the malfunction occurred. Confirm the data at this time and the data when the engine is idling (engine warmed up, no load, and shift lever in P or N) and compare these data with the freeze frame data.
- *1: If the throttle body assembly has a temporary problem in which it cannot fully close, the intake air volume and engine speed increase. As a result, the ISC learning amount becomes less than the standard. At this time, if the throttle body assembly returns to normal and fully closes, the intake air volume will be insufficient and the engine may stall.
- *2: If carbon accumulates on the throttle body assembly and the intake air volume decreases, the ISC learning amount is increased to maintain the idling speed. If this situation continues, the ISC learning amount reaches the upper limit, the idling speed cannot be maintained causing idling to become unstable, and the engine may stall.
