Data Link Connector: Description and Operation

Check the DLC3







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

HINT:
If the display shows "UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE" when you have connected the cable of the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester to DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool side.

- If the communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect 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.
