INSPECTION & VERIFICATION

  1. Verify customer's original problem by operating system in question. Inspect vehicle for any obvious electrical component wiring or connector damage. Inspect connectors for loose, damaged or corroded terminals. Check related fuses for system in question.
  2. Inspect Data Link Connector (DLC) pins for damage. (Scheme 1) The DLC is located below driver's side of instrument panel, to the right of steering column. If pins are okay, go to next step. If pins are damaged, repair as necessary and proceed to next step.
  3. If problem is still present after performing inspection, connect New Generation Star (NGS) tester to DLC. Select vehicle to be tested from NGS tester menu. If NGS tester does not communicate with vehicle, ensure program card is properly installed. Check NGS tester cable connections and ensure ignition is on. If NGS tester still does not communicate with vehicle, go to «TEST M: NO MODULE/NETWORK COMMUNICATION»(ref-1748-S03544444792000031400000) under SYSTEM TESTS. If NGS tester communicates with vehicle, perform data link diagnostic procedure. See «DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST»(ref-1748-S15958630282000031400000).

  1. Connect New Generation Star (NGS) tester to Data Link Connector (DLC), if not already connected. Select vehicle to be tested from NGS tester menu.
  2. Turn ignition on. Rotate dial on NGS tester to menu item DIAGNOSTIC DATA LINK and press trigger. A test will be performed on the BUS (circuits No. 914 and 915) for the module communications network and the ISO 9141 communication link (circuit No. 70).
  3. If NGS tester displays CKT 914 (+) = SYSTEM PASSED and CKT 915 (-) = SYSTEM PASSED, module communications network is okay. If NGS tester displays CKT 70 = SYSTEM PASSED, ISO 9141 communication link is operating properly. Return to article that directed you here and continue diagnosis.
  4. If NGS tester does not display CKT 914 (+) = SYSTEM PASSED, CKT 915 (-) = SYSTEM PASSED and CKT 70 = SYSTEM PASSED, perform the following as applicable: If no response from NGS tester, go to «TEST M: NO MODULE/NETWORK COMMUNICATION»(ref-1748-S03544444792000031400000) under TESTING. If NGS tester displays CKT 70, CKT 914 and/or CKT 915 = SOME ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, go to «SYMPTOM INDEX»(ref-1748-S17483365872000031400000) table to continue diagnosis.
