Cylinder Load Test?

[tinindian]

Is the cylinder load test still in the DVT? I know it's in the Scan Tool manual but I can't find it in the software. Thanks.

In the scantool:
- connect to vehicle (click green button on upper left),
- goto the DVT tab,
- select your controller (PCM/ECM),
- click Activate,
- goto Engine Control tab,
- checkmark Activate Fuel Injector Control;

then click the red record button (bottom center);

then continuing on on DVT engine control tab:
- for each cylinder (n = 1 to 8), click Cyl n Off, count off 3 seconds, click the next Cyl n Off, do all 8 cylinders, then click All Cyl On;
- then when done click Deactivate;

then stop recording, and goto Dashboard B and view the log chart...

every 3 second slice is one cylinder shut off, if you see no drop in RPM in a slice then that cylinder is defective.
