Self-diagnosis process
The F.A.T.C. module self test feature will detect electrical malfunction and provide error codes for system components with suspected failures.
DTC data can be retrieved from the control panel directly or from the DLC using the Hi-Scan Pro.
How to read self-diagnostic code
After the display panel flickers three times every 0.5 second, the corresponding fault code flickers on the setup temperature display panel every 0.5 second and will show two figures. Codes are displayed in numerical format.
