to non-emission codes, they will seem like an intermit-
tent. These codes require a set of parameters to be
performed (The DRBIIItpre-test screens will help
with this for MONITOR codes), this is called a ªTRIPº.
All EURO STAGE III OBD DTCs will be set after one
or in some cases two trip failures, and the MIL will be
turned on. These codes require three successful (no
failures) TRIPS to extinguish the MIL, followed by 40
warm-up cycles to erase the code.
3.3.2 INTERMITTENT CODE
A diagnostic trouble code that is not there every
time the PCM checks the circuit is an ªintermittentº
code. Most intermittent codes are caused by wiring
or connector problems. Defects that come and go
like this are the most difficult to diagnose; they
must be looked for under specific conditions that
cause them. The following checks may assist you in
identifying a possible intermittent problem:
²Visually inspect related wire harness connectors.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded
terminals.
²Visually inspect the related harnesses. Look for
chafed, pierced, or partially broken wire.
²Refer to any Hotline Newsletters or technical
service bulletins that may apply.
²Use the DRBIIItdata recorder or co-pilot.
²Use the DRBIIItPEP module lab scope.
3.3.3 RESET COUNTER
The reset counter counts the number of times the
vehicle has been started since codes were last set,
erased, or the battery was disconnected. The reset
counter will count up to 255 start counts.
The number of starts helps determine when the
trouble code actually happened. This is recorded by
the PCM and can be viewed on the DRBIIItas
STARTS since set.
When there are no trouble codes stored in mem-
ory, the DRBIIItwill display ªNO DTC'S Detectedº
and the reset counter will show ªSTARTS since
clear = XXX.º
3.3.4 HANDLING NO TROUBLE CODE
PROBLEMS
Symptom checks cannot be used properly unless
the driveability problem characteristic actually
happens while the vehicle is being tested.
Select the symptom that most accurately de-
scribes the vehicle's driveability problem and then
perform the test routine that pertains to this symp-
tom. Perform each routine test in sequence until the
problem is found. For definitions, see Section 6.0

Refer to the DRBIIItuser 's guide for instructions
and assistance with reading trouble codes, erasing
trouble codes, and other DRBIIItfunctions.

Under normal operation, the DRBIIItwill dis-
play one of only two error messages:

3.5.1 DRB IIITDOES NOT POWER UP
If the LED's do not light or no sound is emitted at
start up, check for loose cable connections or a bad
cable. Check the vehicle battery voltage (data link
connector cavity 16). A minimum of 11 volts is
required to adequately power the DRBIIIt.
If all connections are proper between the
DRBIIItand vehicle or other devices, and the
vehicle battery is fully charged, an inoperative
DRBIIItmay be the result of a faulty cable or
vehicle wiring. For a blank screen, refer to the
appropriate body diagnostics manual.
3.5.2 DISPLAY IS NOT VISIBLE
Low temperatures will affect the visibility of the
display. Adjust the contrast to compensate for this
condition.

Set the parking brake and block the wheels before
testing or repairing the vehicle. It is especially impor-
tant to block the wheels on front-wheel drive vehicles;
the parking brake does not hold the drive wheels.
When servicing a vehicle, always wear eye pro-
tection, and remove any metal jewelry such as
watchbands or bracelets that might make an inad-
vertent electrical contact.
When diagnosing a powertrain system problem,
it is important to follow approved procedures where

4.3.3 ELECTRONIC PINION FACTOR
WARNING
The pinion factor must be set for all new trans-
mission control modules. If the pinion factor is not
set or if it is set incorrectly, any speed-related
accessories will not operate or will operate inaccu-
rately. This includes the speedometer, speed con-
trol, rolling door locks, and other devices that are
operated by the powertrain and body control mod-
ules. For instructions on setting the pinion factor,
see the appropriate transmission diagnostic man-
ual or the service manual.
