Freeze Frame
Freeze Frame Data allows the technician to view the vehicle’s operating
parameters at the moment a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) is detected.
For example, the parameters may include engine speed (RPM), engine
coolant temperature (ECT), or vehicle speed sensor (VSS) etc. This
information will aid the technician by allowing the parameters to be
duplicated for diagnostic and repair purposes.
1) To view freeze frame data, use the UP/DOWN scroll button to select
Freeze Frame from Diagnostic Menu and press the OK button
(Figure 4- 1).
2) Wait a few seconds while the scan tool validates the PID MAP.
3) If retrieved information covers more than one screen, use the DOWN
scroll button, as necessary, until all the data have been shown up.
If there is no available freeze frame data, an advisory message
“No freeze frame data stored!” shows on the display.
4) Select Save to record freeze frame. A confirming message “Save
success!” shows on the display and scan tool return to previous menu.
5) If you don’t want to save the freeze frame data, press ESC button to
return to previous screen.
