Freeze Frame Data

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. HINT: 
    • Whenever a DTC is detected or the ABS operates, the skid control ECU stores the current vehicle (sensor) state as freeze frame data.
    • The skid control ECU stores the number of times (maximum: 31) the ignition switch has been turned from OFF to ON since the last time the ABS was activated. However, if the vehicle was stopped or at low speed (4.3 mph (7 km/h) or less), or if a DTC is detected, the skid control ECU will not count the number after that.
    • Freeze frame data at the time the ABS operates: The skid control ECU stores and updates the data whenever the ABS system operates. When the ECU stores data at the time a DTC is detected, the data stored when the ABS operated is erased.
    • Freeze frame data at the time a DTC is detected: When the skid control ECU stores data at the time a DTC is detected, no updates will be performed until the data is cleared.
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Turn the tester on.
    4. Check the freeze frame data by following the prompts on the Techstream display.
