DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST

1. DATA LIST

HINT:

Using the Techstream to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.

NOTICE:

In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / (desired system) / Data List.

(e) According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List.

Power Source Control

Tester Display	Measurement Item/Range	Normal Condition	Diagnostic Note
Shift P Signal	Shift position P/ON or OFF	ON: Shift lever in P OFF: Shift lever not in P	Use this item to determine if the shift position switch is malfunctioning. The engine cannot be started when this item is OFF.
Steering Unlock Switch	State of steering unlock sensor signal output from steering lock actuator assembly/ON or OFF	ON: Steering unlocked OFF: Steering locked	When the shift lever is in P and the engine switch is off, if any door is opened then closed, the steering is locked. When the key is inside the vehicle and the engine switch is turned on (ACC) or on (IG), the steering unlocks. The engine cannot be started when the steering unlock signal is off.
Stop Light Switch1	State of brake pedal/ON or OFF	ON: Brake pedal depressed OFF: Brake pedal released	Use this item to determine whether the stop light switch is malfunctioning. The engine cannot be started when this item is OFF. When this item is malfunctioning, the engine can be started by pressing and holding the engine switch for a certain period of time.
Start Switch1	Engine switch 1 status/ON or OFF	ON: Engine switch pressed OFF: Engine switch not pressed	If the engine switch is pressed for a short time, the display may not change. Use this item to determine whether the engine switch input signal is malfunctioning.
Start Switch2	Engine switch 2 status/ON or OFF	ON: Engine switch pressed OFF: Engine switch not pressed	Backup for engine switch 1. However, when the engine switch is pressed and held, the control functions only when both engine switch 1 and 2 are normal. Behaves the same way as engine switch 1.
Neutral SW/ Clutch SW	Shift position (P and N)/ON or OFF	ON: Shift lever in P or N OFF: Shift lever in any position other than P or N	Use this item to determine whether the park/neutral position switch is malfunctioning. When the engine cannot be started due to a park/neutral position switch malfunction, OFF is displayed.
Latch Circuit	Status of IG related backup circuits/ON or OFF	ON: Engine switch on (IG) OFF: Engine switch off	Displays in almost the same manner as the IG1 and IG2 relays. When the engine switch is on (ACC), OFF is displayed.
Starter Request Signal	Engine start request signal status/ON or OFF	ON: With the shift lever in P and brake pedal depressed, the engine switch is pressed and held OFF: After approx. 1 sec. has elapsed, the engine switch is released	When the engine cannot be started due to a start request signal malfunction, OFF is displayed. When the engine switch is pressed, the duration of time that ON is displayed will be extremely short. As such, the engine switch needs to be pressed and held for a certain amount of time.
ACC Relay Monitor	ACC relay activation/ON or OFF	ON: Engine switch on (ACC) OFF: Engine switch off	When the engine switch is on (IG), ON is displayed. While the engine is cranking, OFF is displayed.
Engine Condition	Engine state/Stop or Run	Stop: Engine stopped Run: Engine running	-
Vehicle Speed Signal	Vehicle being driven or stopped/Stop or Run	Stop: Vehicle stopped Run: Vehicle being driven at 5 km/h (3 mph) or more	-
Power Supply Condition	Power supply state/All OFF, ACC ON, IG ON or ST ON	All OFF: Engine switch off (ACC and IG) ACC ON: Engine switch on (ACC) IG ON: Engine switch on (IG) ST ON: Sending engine start request signal	-
Powertrain Type	Vehicle identification/HV-AT, Cnv-MT, Cnv-AT, Cnv-MMT, S&S-MT, S&S-AT or S&S-MMT	Cnv-AT: Conventional A/T models (w/o hybrid system)	-
IG Circuit	IG relay coil circuit malfunction/OK or NG	OK: Circuit normal NG: Circuit malfunctioning	Use this item to determine whether the IG relay is malfunctioning. When the engine cannot be started due to an IG relay malfunction, NG is displayed.
IG Relay Monitor (Outside)	IG relay coil voltage monitor status/ON or OFF	ON: Engine switch on (IG) OFF: Engine switch off	Use this item to determine whether the IG relay is malfunctioning. When the engine switch is on (ACC), OFF is displayed.
IG Relay Monitor (Inside)	IG relay activation/ON or OFF	ON: Engine switch on (IG) OFF: Engine switch off	Use this item to determine whether the IG relay is malfunctioning. When the engine switch is on (ACC), OFF is displayed.
Starter SW Sig Mismatch	Engine switch signal 1 and 2 do not match/Yes or No	Yes: Switch malfunctioning (engine switch signal 1 and 2 do not match) No: Switch normal	The engine can be started even if the result is Yes. However, emergency engine off while driving by pressing and holding the engine switch and, when the brakes are malfunctioning, emergency engine starting by pressing and holding the engine switch cannot be performed.
Park Signal Mismatch	P position signal malfunction/Yes or No	Yes: Signal malfunction (CAN communication and direct line signal do not match) No: Signal normal	Even when Yes is displayed, it is still possible to turn the engine switch off (the power source mode will not be stuck in on (ACC) or on (IG)).
Str Lock/Unlock Wait T-Out	Steering lock or unlock malfunction/Yes or No	Yes: Lock or unlock malfunction (e.g. steering lock is stuck etc.) No: Lock and unlock normal	When the engine cannot be started due to a steering lock or unlock malfunction, Yes is displayed.
Key Certif Wait T-Out	Key verification malfunction/Yes or No	Yes: Verification error (detected due to the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly ID code and the ID code stored in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) not matching) No: Verification normal	When the engine cannot be started due to a key verification error, Yes is displayed.
