Data Bus On Board Diagnostic Interface Gateway






Data Bus On Board Diagnostic Interface Gateway

Instrument clusters from 06.99 are integrated into the vehicle CAN Data Bus network (may also be known as "CAN-Bus" or "Data-Bus ").

The data bus on board diagnostic interface (J533 ) (which is integrated into the instrument cluster) enables data to be exchanged between the vehicle CAN Data-Bus network and the Data Link Connector (DLC) "K-wire".

The data bus on board diagnostic interface (J533 ) has specific On Board Diagnostic (OBD) capabilities and requires a separate address word.

On replacement instrument clusters, the data bus on board diagnostic interface (J533) must be coded according to vehicle market version and equipment level variables.
