Inspection procedure

  1. Read value of intelligent tester (engine immobiliser system)

  1. Connect the intelligent tester (with can vim) to the dlc3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch on with a key that cannot start the engine.
  3. On the intelligent tester, enter the following menus: diagnosis / obd/mobd / immobiliser / data list / immobiliser. Read the result.
