Freeze Frame Data
1999 Ford Ranger 4WD V6-3.0L VIN USECTION Freeze Frame Data
Freeze Frame Data allows access to emission-related values from specific generic PIDs. These values are stored the instant an emission-related DTC is stored in Continuous Memory. This provides a snapshot of the conditions that were present when the DTC was stored. Once one set of freeze frame data is stored, this data will remain in memory even if another emission-related DTC is stored, with the exception of Misfire or Fuel System DTCs. Once freeze frame data for Misfire or Fuel System DTC is stored, it will overwrite any previous data, and freeze frame will not be further overwritten. When a DTC associated with the freeze frame is erased or a PCM memory reset is performed, new freeze frame data can be stored again. In the event of multiple emission-related DTCs in memory, always note the DTC for the freeze frame data.
