1. Chọta Ọdụ Ụgbọ Mmiri OBDII: The 16-pin OBDII Data Link Connector (DLC) is typically located under the dashboard on the driver's side of the vehicle. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual if you cannot locate it.
2. Jikọọ ihe nyocha ahụ: Firmly plug the EDIAG YA-201's OBDII connector into the vehicle's DLC.
3. Ike Na: Once connected, the scanner will automatically power on and display the main menu. If the device does not power on, ensure the vehicle's ignition is in the "ON" position (engine off or running, depending on the desired test).

4. Ntuziaka ọrụ

Navigate the scanner's menu using the directional buttons (Up, Down, Left, Right) and the OK/Enter button. The Return button allows you to go back to the previous screen.

4.1 Main Menu Options

• Nchọpụta nchọpụta: Accesses the primary OBDII diagnostic functions.
• Nyocha DTC: Provides definitions for Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
• Batrị: Checks the vehicle's battery voltage.
• Ntọala: Na-ahazi mmasị ngwaọrụ.

4.2 Ọrụ nyocha

From the main menu, select "Diagnosis" and press OK to access the following functions:

• Read Codes (DTCs):

  Retrieves Diagnostic Trouble Codes from the vehicle's Engine Control Unit (ECU). Codes are categorized as:

  • Stored Codes: Confirmed fault codes that have illuminated the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).
  • Pending Codes: Faults detected during the current or last driving cycle that have not yet illuminated the MIL.
  • Koodu Na-adịgide Adịgide: Codes that cannot be cleared by simply erasing DTCs. They clear only after the fault is confirmed to be fixed by the ECU through driving cycles.
• Kpochapụ Koodu:

  Clears all Diagnostic Trouble Codes from the vehicle's ECU and turns off the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). Note: Erasing codes does not fix the underlying problem. The MIL will re-illuminate if the fault persists.

• Data dị ndụ:

  Displays real-time operating parameters of the vehicle. This function is crucial for diagnosing intermittent problems and verifying repairs.

  • All Datastream: Shows all available live data parameters in text format.
  • Graph Display: Presents selected live data parameters in a graphical format for easier analysis of trends and fluctuations.
  • Ndekọ: Allows recording of live data for later review.
  • Nkpọghachi: Reviews previously recorded live data.

• Frame ifriizi:

  Captures a snapshot of vehicle operating conditions at the moment a fault code is set. This data helps in determining the cause of the fault.
• Njikere M/M:

  Indicates whether the various emission-related systems on the vehicle are operating correctly and have completed their diagnostic tests. This is essential for emissions testing.

• Mode 6 (On-board Monitoring Test):

  Accesses the results of on-board diagnostic monitoring tests for specific components/systems that are not continuously monitored. This includes misfire cylinder data.

• Nnwale sensọ O2:

  Retrieves O2 sensor monitoring test results for the most recently completed tests from the vehicle's on-board computer.
• EVAP Systems (Mode 8) Component Test:

  Allows initiation of a leak test for the vehicle's EVAP (Evaporative Emission Control) system.
