Diagnostics

Trouble codes, the health score, readiness monitors, misfires, live data and the battery test.

9 articles

  1. Battery and charging test

    Grade the battery at rest, while cranking and while charging, and watch resting voltage over time.

  2. Clear trouble codes

    Clearing is the one thing Drive DTC can change. You type CLEAR to confirm, and only engine and transmission codes are cleared.

  3. Misfire counts, self-test results and fuel trims

    Per-cylinder misfire counts, the engine computer's own test results next to their limits, and what fuel trims say.

  4. Read trouble codes

    Read stored, pending and permanent codes in plain English, with the freeze frame, likely fixes and typical costs.

  5. Readiness monitors and the drive-cycle coach

    See which emissions self-tests are complete, how to finish the rest, and what the result means in your state.

  6. Scan every module on the bus

    The Modules page asks every address on the diagnostic bus what it is and which codes it holds. Read-only.

  7. Start from a symptom or a warning light

    Two pages that work with nothing plugged in, one for what the vehicle is doing and one for the light on the dash.

  8. Understand the health score and verdict

    What the 0 to 100 score counts, what the verdict banner means, and why it is a summary rather than a diagnosis.

  9. Watch live data and record a drive

    Gauges and 35+ values from the engine computer, recorded to CSV and charted on the Replay page.
