Read KOER Codes
The
Read KOER Codes
function activates the KOER (Key-On-Engine-Run-
ning) self-test which retrieves KOER DTCs that are present when the engine
is running.When the trouble condition is inactive, the KOER Code will no longer
be sent through the data stream. This function also performs a
Computed Tim-
ing Check
for EEC-IV vehicles manufactured from 1984 through 1991.
The DTCs are transmitted in two formats which transmit the same information:
•
Slow Codes
are regular service codes that allow the user to identify the
faults with an analog voltmeter or the check engine light. Slow codes are
transmitted within 3 minutes.
•
Fast Codes
are transmitted within seconds and must be read with a diag-
nostic tool. MECS vehicles do not support Fast Codes.
Exhaust gases are harmful or lethal. Always Operate
vehicle in a well-ventilated area.
The KOER test is done with the engine running. Do not
over-rev engine. Observe all safety precautions.
Avoid Cooling Fan! It May Turn On During Test.
