Scan Tool Testing and Procedures

Check the DLC3.









HINT:
- The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 9141-2 for communication. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies wire SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.
- If your display shows UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE when you have connected the cable of the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool side.
- If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
- If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the tool's instruction manual.
