4.4 Action Test (Bi-directional Control)

The action test, also known as bi-directional control, involves sending and retrieving information from a vehicle control module. This function allows you to command the control module to perform specific actions, such as system tests, actuator tests, functional tests, inspection tests, reprogramming, or reinitialization. This significantly reduces diagnostic time.

ExampLI: If you suspect a fuel pump issue, you can use the action test to send a fuel pump command and observe the fuel pressure, helping to determine if the problem lies with the pump circuit or the pump itself.
