  4. Turn ON ignition switch.
  5. Read DTC according to instructions displayed on SUZUKI scan tool and print it or write it down. Refer to SUZUKI scan tool operator's manual for further details.

    If communication between scan tool and HVAC control module is not possible, check if scan tool is communicable by connecting it to HVAC control module in another vehicle. If communication is possible in this case, scan tool is good condition. Then check data link connector and serial data line (circuit) in the vehicle with which communication was not possible.

  6. After completing the check, turn ignition switch to OFF position and disconnect SUZUKI scan tool from DLC.
