"Maintenance Indicator Mode"
The Engine Control Module (ECM) records data that is related to the vehicle's maintenance. If "Distance" is selected, all maintenance indications on the service tool will be displayed in distance. Typical maintenance indications are "PM 1", "PM 2" and the "Coolant Flush/Fill".If "Hour" is selected, all maintenance indications on the service tool will be displayed in hours. Typical maintenance indications are "PM 1", "PM 2" and the "Coolant Flush/Fill". The ECM provides "PM 1" maintenance interval and last maintenance information.
