Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20 - WIPER AND WASHER
WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM - DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
READ DATA LIST |

- HINT:
- Using the intelligent tester to read the DATA LIST allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators, and other items to be read without removing any parts. This nonintrusive inspection can be very useful as intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the DATA LIST information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Read the DATA LIST.
