Diagnostic Mode 07 - Read Faults Detected During the Current or Last Driving Cycle

Mode 07 makes it possible to check emissions-related faults which appeared during the current or last driving cycle (pending DTCs).

A pending DTC is saved the first time a fault is detected (output via Mode 07).

- If the fault is detected again by the end of the following driving cycle, a confirmed DTC is entered (output via Mode 03) and the MIL is activated.

- If this malfunction is not detected again by the end of the following driving cycle, the corresponding pending code will be deleted at the end of the driving cycle.

• Depending on scan tool and protocol used, some of the information provided may be referred to by a different name.

Procedure

- Connect the scan tool.

- Start the engine and run at idle.

• If the engine does not start, crank the engine using starter for at least 5 seconds. Do not switch the ignition off afterward.

- Select Mode 7: Check test results of components that are continuously monitored.

The number of pending DTCs or 0 malfunctions detected will be displayed on the scan tool screen.

- Refer to the DTC tables for the diagnostic repair procedures.

- Switch the ignition off.
