    How to check for DTC's stored on the DIM.

    If anyone wants to check if they have any DTC's stored on there DIM try this.
    http://s60r.fadainc.com/tips/Diagnostics.pdf

    Done mine earlier & I was shocked to find 7, I will have to get it plugged in soon to find out what they are & get my DRL's turned off at the same time,

    I had faults stored on the

    AUM,CEM,DDM,CCM,PDM,SWM,UEM.

    This could be a good thing to do before buying a phase 2.

    Interesting but why not use a code reader in the first place? I assume it doesn't actually tell you the fault code, just that you have a fault?

    Nice if you don't have a code reader handy... I have to admit that I drive around with one in the boot of the car "just in case"!!!

    Good find, thanks for sharing.

    Just in case anyone can't read the PDF, it says:

    To show diagnostic information in the text window:
    • Turn key to position II or start the engine.
    • Press and hold down [READ] on the turn signal lever, and press the rear fog light
    • button 3 times quickly.
    • Press [READ] to advance to the next item.

    Handy.
