The ECM records and stores engine control system faults as diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). These DTCs may be retrieved either by
using an electronic scan tool or by reading DTC flash codes.
With all accessories off, connect Electronic Service Tool (EST) to the American Trucking Association (ATA) diagnostic connector. The ATA
connector is located on the lower lefthand side kick panel, Fig.1. On school buses, it may be hidden by the body builders panel near the
driver's left foot.
With the tester plugged in, turn the ignition switch to On but do not start engine. Current engine status data should be displayed. If no data
is displayed, press ENTER to retry. To access diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), press the FUNC key to switch to the main menu, then
follow the menu map, Fig.2.
1. Depress and hold self-test input (STI) switch, located on vehicle dash. The STI switch may also be labeled"Engine Diagnostics."
2. Turn ignition switch to On position.
3. The OIL/WATER light will flash once to indicate the beginning of active DTCs.
4. If any DTCs are detected, the WARN ENGINE light will then flash to indicate which code(s) are present.
5. After all active DTCs have flashed, the OIL/WATER light will flash twice to indicate the beginning of inactive codes.
6. The WARN ENGINE light will then flash to indicate which code is present. If more than one code is stored, the OIL/WATER light
will flash once between each code.
7. After all codes have been sent, the OIL/WATER light will flash three times to indicate the end of DTC retrieval.
8. To repeat fault code readout, depress Engine Diagnostics (STI) switch which will signal the ECM to re-send all stored codes.
Refer to Fig.4 for electronic engine control system wiring diagram. Refer to Fig. 5 for ECM connector pin identification.
Diagnostic Tests
There are two ways to clear diagnostic trouble codes. If using a scan tool, refer to the tool manufactures instructions. If using flash codes,
disconnect the battery ground cable for at least one minute.
