Scheme 66: DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
  1. DESCRIPTION Push-button start function data and the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) can be read through the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle. When the function seems to be malfunctioning, use Techstream to check for malfunctions and perform repairs.
  2. CHECK DLC3 HINT: The vehicle uses ISO 15765-4 communication protocol. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 15765-4 format. Symbols (Terminal No.) Terminal Description Condition Specified Condition CG (4) - Body ground Chassis ground Always Below 1 ohms SG (5) - Body ground Signal ground Always Below 1 ohms SIL (7) - SG (5) Bus "+" line During transmission Pulse generation BAT (16) - Body ground Battery positive Always 10 to 14 V If the result is not as specified, the DLC3 may have a malfunction. Repair or replace the harness and connector. HINT: Connect the cable of Techstream to the DLC3, turn the engine switch on (IG) and attempt to use the tester. If the display indicates that a communication error has occurred, there is a problem either with the vehicle or with the tester. If communication is normal when the tester is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 of the original vehicle. If communication is still not possible when the tester is connected to another vehicle, the problem may be in the tester itself. Consult the Service Department listed in the tester's instruction manual.
  3. INSPECT BATTERY VOLTAGE Standard voltage 11 to 14 V If the voltage is below 11 V, recharge or replace the battery before proceeding.

DTC CHECK / CLEAR

  1. CHECK DTC Connect Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the engine switch on (IG). Read the DTC by following the prompts on the tester screen. HINT: Refer to Techstream operator's manual for further details.
  2. CLEAR DTC Connect Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the engine switch on (IG). Erase the DTC by following the directions on the tester screen. HINT: Refer to Techstream operator's manual for further details.

DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST

  1. READ DATA LIST HINT: Using Techstream's DATA LIST allows switch, sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without removing any parts. Reading the DATA LIST early in troubleshooting is one way to save time. Connect Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the engine switch on (IG). Read the DATA LIST.

  2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST HINT: Performing Techstream's ACTIVE TEST allows relay, VSV, actuator and other items be operated without removing any parts. Performing the ACTIVE TEST early in troubleshooting is one way to save time. The DATA LIST can be displayed during the ACTIVE TEST. Connect Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the engine switch on (IG). Perform the ACTIVE TEST according to the display on the tester.
