On-Board Diagnostic System Description: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
For automatic transmission control system, PCM has the following functions.
For the detail, see ECM POWER & GROUND CIRCUITS .
- When the ignition switch is turned ON with the engine at a stop, malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) turns ON to check the bulb of the MIL.
- When PCM detects a malfunction in A/T control system (and/or a malfunction which gives an adverse effect to vehicle emission) while the engine is running, it makes the malfunction indicator lamp in the meter cluster of the instrument panel turn ON and stores the malfunction area (DTC according to SAE J2012) in its memory. (If it detects that continuously 3 driving cycles are normal after detecting a malfunction, however, it makes MIL turn OFF although DTC stored in its memory will remain.)
- It is possible to communicate through DLC by using not only SUZUKI scan tool but also OBD-II generic scan tool which are in compliance with SAE J1978. (Diagnostic information can be accessed by using a scan tool.)
