DOOR LOCK: KEY REMINDER WARNING SYSTEM: DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

1. DESCRIPTION
Key reminder warning system data can be read through the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle. When the system seems to be malfunctioning, use the Techstream to check for malfunctions and perform repairs.
2. CHECK DLC3





(a) The vehicle's ECU uses ISO 9141-2 for communication.
The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.





HINT: If the display shows a communication error message after connecting the Techstream to the DLC3 and turning the ignition switch to the ON position, there is a problem with either the vehicle or the Techstream.
- If communication is normal when the tester is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
- If communication is still impossible when the tester is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tester itself. Consult the Service Department listed in the tester's operator's manual.
