DESCRIPTION

  1. The combination meter controls the functions of the seat belt warning system on the vehicle. Data of the seat belt warning system can be read through the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle. When the system seems to be malfunctioning, use the intelligent tester to check for malfunctions and perform repairs.

Connect the cable of the intelligent tester to the DLC3, turn the engine switch on (IG) and attempt to use the tester. If the display indicates that a communication error has occurred, there is a problem either with the vehicle or with the tester.
  1. If communication is normal when the tester is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 of the original vehicle.
  2. If communication is still not possible when the tester is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tester itself. Consult the Service Department listed in the tester's instruction manual.


INSPECT BATTERY VOLTAGE

Standard voltage:
11 to 14 V

  1. If the voltage is below 11 V, recharge or replace the battery before proceeding.
