Troubleshooter
Fast-Track® Troubleshooter is a database of experience-based information of validated
real-world repair strategies that have been compiled by top-notch technicians. Troubleshooter
simplifies the diagnosis process, as it contains information on virtually all common diagnostic
trouble code (DTC) problems and driveability symptoms.
Troubleshooter information is organized into a series of diagnostic tips that are designed to quickly
lead you to the root cause of a particular problem. The tips are vehicle-specific, which means only
tips that relate to the identified vehicle are presented. Selecting opens a menu that may include:
• Code Tips—provides detailed information on setting conditions, testing, and interpreting test
results for specific codes.
• Symptom Tips—provides diagnostic tests and procedures based on vehicle operation.
• Time Savers—provides supplemental information, such as firing order and #1 cylinder
location, that may be needed to make a diagnosis.
• Common Problems—provides advice and remedies for certain “pattern failures” that have
been experienced on vehicles of the same model.
• Tests and Procedures—explains how to perform certain tests on the specific test vehicle.
Some tips provide specifications and installation information as well.
• Fast-Track Data Scan (Normal Values)—contains information and guidelines on how to
validate data readings for certain sensors and actuators, live data values are provided.
i Troubleshooter appears in a Scanner menu only if tips are available for the system selected on the
identified vehicle.
