Check DLC3

CHECK DLC3

HINT: The vehicle's ECU uses the ISO 15765 4 communication protocol. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 15765 4 format.












HINT: Connect the cable of the hand-held tester (with CAN VIM) to the DLC3, turn the ignition switch ON and attempt to use the hand-held tester. If the screen displays UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE, a problem exists in the vehicle side or the tester side.
- If communication is normal when the tester is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
- If communication is still impossible 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.
