Additional OBD2 Tests
O2 SENSOR TEST
In addition to retrieving Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and viewing
Live Data, you can use the Enhanced CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool to
perform additional diagnostic tests, and to view diagnostic and vehicle
information stored in your vehicle's on-board computer.
Additional tests are accessed through the
"Mode Selection Menu." To access the
"Mode Selection Menu", place the
CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool in "Live Data"
mode (see VIEWING LIVE DATA on page

Live Data Mode section beginning on page 47 for more information)
� O2 Sensor Test - Retrieves and displays O2 sensor monitor test
results from your vehicle's on-board computer.
� Non-Continuous Test - Retrieves and displays test results for
emission-related powertrain components and systems that are not
continuously monitored.
� System Test - Performs a leak test for the vehicle's EVAP system.
� Vehicle ID - Retrieves the vehicle's VIN number, calibration ID(s)
and other related information, and lets you view a listing of available
modules for the vehicle.
O2 SENSOR TEST
OBD2 regulations require that applicable vehicles monitor and test
operation of the oxygen (O2) sensors to identify problems that can affect
fuel efficiency and vehicle emissions. These tests are performed
automatically when engine operating conditions are within predefined
limits. Results of these tests are stored in the on-board computer's
memory.
The O2 Sensor Test function lets you retrieve and view O2 sensor
monitor test results for the most recently completed tests from your
vehicle's on-board computer.
Vehicles are equipped with multiple O2 sensors. O2 sensors are
installed both upstream of (before) and downstream of (after) the
exhaust system Catalytic Converters. The name of an O2 sensor
identifies its location in the exhaust system. The name of each O2
sensor is made up of three parts:
O2S XX YY -or- O2S X Y
� O2S -this is the basic designation for all O2 sensors.
