4.3.5 Special Functions
Special tests are bi-directional diagnostic tests on anti-lock brake systems and air bags. The tests
let you to use the scanner temporarily activate or control a vehicle system or component, and
when you exit the test, the system/component returns to normal operation.
Some tests display a command to the operator. For example, if “Press Brake Pedal” displays, the
operator has to press and hold the brake pedal and then continue. The number, and type of tests
will vary for each vehicle, year and components.
Typical special test options include:
● ABS Manual Control Tests – allows to manually control the actuators in order to test ABS
motors, solenoids, solenoid enable relays, EMBs, and more.
● ABS Motor Test – allows to manually control the ABS pump motor.
● ABS Version Test – displays the name of the brake system and the ABS controller version
number, software ID, and sequence value.
● Actuator Tests – allows to manually control the actuators in order to test AYC valves, inlet
valves, outlet valves, pump motors, and TRACS valves.
● Autobleed Test, Automated Bleed, or Service Bleed – removes air from the internal brake
fluid chambers after servicing the brakes.
IMPORTANT
●
Before bleeding the brake system, make sure no diagnostic codes are present.
●
Do not let the master cylinder run dry during the brake bleeding procedure.
●
Do not allow brake fluid to contact the motor pack or the electrical connectors.
●
Use a recommended brake fluid. Do not use silicone brake fluids in an ABS-equipped vehicle.
After bleeding the brake system, check the brake pedal for excessive travel or a “spongy” feel.
Bleed again if either condition is present.
● Automated Test – automatically commands each solenoid valve and the pump motor on and
off to test for proper operation.
● Brake Bleed Preparation Test – prepares the brake lines for bleeding by clearing air from the
modulator. The test rehomes all the ABS and TCS motors, cycles the TCS motors, and then
returns all motors to the “home” position at the bottom of the bore.
● Function Test – automatically commands the ABS relay, valve solenoids, and pump motor on
and off to test for proper operation.
● Gear Tension Relief Test – relieves tension from the ABS motor gears so you can separate
the ABS motor pack from the ABS hydraulic modulator.
● Hydraulic Control Tests – allows to manually engage and disengage the ABS solenoids for
troubleshooting the hydraulic functions.
● Idle Up Manual Control Test – allows to manually control the idle up actuators.
● Lamp Tests – allows to manually control the ABS or TCS warning or indicator lamps.
● Motor Rehome Test – prepares the brake lines for bleeding by clearing air from the
modulator. The test returns all ABS motors to their “home” positions.
● Pump Motor Tests – allows to manually control the pump motor.
● Relay Test – allows to manually engage and disengage either the ABS or TCS relays in order
to test relay operation.
● Requested Torque Test – allows to manually control the engine torque to test for proper
operation of the traction control system (TCS).
● Setup SDM Serial Number (Air Bag Sensing and Diagnostic Module) – allows to program
a new air bag serial number into the dash integration module (DIM). You use this test after
installing a new air bag; otherwise a diagnostic trouble code will be set when you turn on the
ignition.
● Solenoid Tests – allows to manually control the inlet and output valve solenoids.
27
AD610 Elite ABS & Airbag Reset Tool Manual_English_V1.01
●
System Identification – displays information about the brake system, the vehicle, and the
ABS controller.
●

an adjuster assembly control test.
●
Voltage Load Test – “loads” the ABS battery supply circuit to test for adequate battery
capacity.

Diagnostic trouble codes stored in a control module are used to help identify the cause of a
trouble or troubles with a vehicle. These codes have occurred a specific number of times and
indicate a problem that requires repair.
Pending codes are also referred to as maturing codes that indicate intermittent faults. If the fault
does not occur within a certain number of drive cycles (depending on vehicle), the code clears
from memory. If a fault occurs a specific number of times, the code matures into a DTC and the
MIL illuminates or blinks.

5.6 Read I/M Readiness Status Data
I/M Readiness option allows to view a snapshot of the operations for the emission system on
OBDII/EOBD vehicles.
I/M Readiness is a useful function used to check if all monitors are OK or N/A. The vehicle’s
computer performs tests on the emission system during normal driving conditions. After a specific
amount of drive time (each monitor has specific driving conditions and time required), the
computer’s monitors decide if the vehicles emission system is working correctly.
When the monitor’s status is:
●
OK - vehicle was driven enough to complete the monitor.
●
INC (Incomplete) - vehicle was not driven enough to complete the monitor.
●
N/A (Not Applicable) - vehicle does not support that monitor.
There are two types of I/M Readiness tests:
●
Since DTCs Cleared - shows status of the monitors since the DTCs were last cleared.
●
This Drive Cycle - shows status of monitors since the start of the current drive cycle.
