DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

1. LIST OF OPERATION METHODS




By operating each of the A/C control switches as shown in the diagram, it is possible to enter the diagnostic check mode.

2. CHECK BATTERY VOLTAGE

Standard voltage: 11 to 14 V

If the voltage is below 11 V, recharge the battery before proceeding.

3. CHECK DLC3







a. The ECU uses the ISO 15765-4 for communication protocol. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 15765-4 format.
b. If the result is not as specified, DLC3 may have a malfunction. Repair or replace the harness and connector.

HINT: Connect the cable of the intelligent tester to DLC3, turn the ignition switch to the ON position 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 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.
