Mode 6 Data




DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

MODE 6 REFERENCE TABLE

The engine control module (ECM) monitors the condition of emission control system.
By selecting MODE 6 using scan tool, Test Result and Limit Value (minimum) *1 or (maximum) *2 about the main items of emission control system which ECM monitors can be confirmed. The value at the last monitoring is output by ECM as a test result.










NOTE:
*1: Minimum value: The test fails if test value is less than this value.

NOTE:
*2: Maximum value: The test fails if test value is greater than this value.

NOTE:
When not finishing the monitor of the driving cycle for the request of On-Board Monitoring Test Request, the ECM outputs the stored latest monitor test result.

NOTE:
When the monitored test results are erased by the battery disconnection and so on, the ECM outputs the values in hexadecimal of "0000" or "FFFF", otherwise it outputs abnormal values and so on. In case of this, the ECU outputs are handled as invalid-values. When the first monitor
(Readiness Status) is completed after this, the ECM outputs the valid-values.

NOTE:
"Test Limit Type & Component ID byte" output from the ECM is given in hexadecimal of "00" or "80". "00" means the maximum value and "80" means the minimum value.
