2000 Chevrolet Malibu V6-3.1L VIN JSECTION Scan Tool Data Definitions
The Data Display function contains a list of ABS data parameters. A brief description of all ABS data parameters available on the scan tool are listed below. The list is arranged in alphabetical order.
ABS Active: The scan tool displays Yes or No - The scan tool displays Yes when the ABS is active. This scan tool displays No during normal vehicle operation.
ABS Relay Command: The scan tool displays On or Off - The scan tool displays On during vehicle operation. The EBCM commands the ABS relay On when Ignition positive voltage is present.
ABS Relay Feedback: The scan tool displays On or Off - The scan tool displays On during vehicle operation.
ABS Warning Lamp: The scan tool displays Off or On - The scan tool displays whether or not the ABS warning indicator is currently being commanded ON.
Brake Fluid Level: The scan tool displays Low or Normal - The scan tool displays if the brake fluid level is below the standard operating level.
Brake Switch Status: The scan tool displays Applied or Released - The scan tool displays the state of the brake switch.
DRP Active: The scan tool displays Yes or No - The scan tool displays Yes when the Dynamic Rear Proportioning (DRP) is active. This scan tool displays No during normal vehicle operation.
DRP Disabled: The scan tool displays Yes or No -The display indicates if the EBCM has disabled the Dynamic Rear Proportioning (DRP) due to a malfunction.
DRP Switched Battery Voltage: The scan tool displays 0-17 Volts - The display indicates the level of the internal EBCM switched battery voltage available to the Dynamic Rear Proportioning (DRP).
Ignition Voltage: The scan tool displays 0 - 17 Volts - The scan tool displays the level of ignition positive voltage at the EBCM.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
