Cara Menggunakan Scanner/menghapus Trouble Code menggunakan Scanner G-Scan 2

Summary

This video demonstrates how to use the G Scan 2 scanner to diagnose and resolve engine issues in vehicles. The presenter explains how to check for trouble codes, particularly focusing on the 'Check Engine' light and a malfunction in the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). After identifying the issue, the video shows how to reset error codes using the scanner, ensuring proper communication between the device and the vehicle's ECU. The process is carefully explained step by step, offering valuable insights for troubleshooting and maintenance.

Takeaways

• 😀 The video explains how to use the G Scan 2 scanner to diagnose vehicle issues, especially the check engine light.
• 😀 The check engine light turning on indicates a potential issue with sensors or actuators in the vehicle.
• 😀 If the check engine light remains on after starting the vehicle, it suggests a malfunction that requires further diagnosis.
• 😀 The G Scan 2 scanner uses an OBD2 connection with a 32-pin plug to interface with the vehicle's diagnostic system.
• 😀 The scanner is connected to a port under the steering wheel to establish communication with the vehicle's ECU.
• 😀 Before using the scanner, ensure the ignition is in the 'on' position to enable communication between the scanner and the vehicle.
• 😀 The scanner's diagnostic tool can read trouble codes and real-time data; in this case, the video focuses on reading error codes.
• 😀 The specific issue diagnosed in the video was a faulty TPS (Throttle Position Sensor), which triggered the check engine light.
• 😀 After identifying the issue with the TPS, it was found to be loose rather than broken, and was reconnected.
• 😀 To clear the error codes in the vehicle's ECU, the scanner is used to delete the stored trouble codes after the issue is fixed.
• 😀 Once the error codes are cleared, the check engine light turns off, confirming the resolution of the problem with the TPS.

Q & A

What does it indicate if the check engine light remains on after starting the engine?

If the check engine light remains on after starting the engine, it indicates that there is a fault in the vehicle's sensor or actuator system.

How is the G Scan 2 scanner connected to the vehicle?

The G Scan 2 scanner is connected to the vehicle through the OBD2 port, which is located under the dashboard.

What is the importance of turning on the ignition before using the scanner?

Turning on the ignition is necessary to establish communication between the vehicle’s ECU and the scanner, allowing the scanner to read diagnostic data from the vehicle.

Which diagnostic option should be selected to read the error codes?

To read the error codes, the 'Diagnostic Trouble Codes' option should be selected on the scanner.

What was the identified issue with the vehicle in this script?

The identified issue was with the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS), which was causing the check engine light to remain on.

How was the problem with the TPS sensor resolved?

The issue with the TPS sensor was resolved by reconnecting it properly, as it had become loose, causing the check engine light to stay on.

What should be done if the check engine light remains on after repairing the sensor?

If the check engine light remains on after repairing the sensor, the error codes stored in the ECU memory should be cleared using the scanner.

How do you clear the error codes using the G Scan 2 scanner?

To clear the error codes, select the 'Clear Error Codes' option on the scanner after ensuring the ignition is on, and then confirm the deletion of the stored error codes.

What happens after the error codes are successfully cleared?

After the error codes are cleared, the check engine light should turn off, confirming that the issue has been resolved.

What is the role of the ECU in this diagnostic process?

The ECU (Engine Control Unit) stores the error codes related to sensor malfunctions and is responsible for triggering the check engine light when there is an issue.
