Inspection Procedure 1

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1
Communication with Scan Tool Is Not Possible. (Communication with All Systems Is Not Possible.)




WIRING DIAGRAM and CONNECTOR VIEW




CIRCUIT OPERATION
- A battery positive voltage is applied on the data link connector power terminal (terminal 16). The ground terminals (terminal 4, 5) are grounded to the vehicle body.

COMMENT
- The cause is probably a defect in power supply system (including ground) for the on-board diagnostic test mode line.




TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
The most likely causes for this case:
- Malfunction of the data link connector.
- Malfunction of the harness wire.

DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the power supply line at the data link connector C-69.




(1) Measure voltage between terminal 16 and ground.
- Voltage should be approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage).
If within specifications, go to Step 2.
If not within specifications, check the intermediate connectors A-54X, D-01 and D-06 and repair or replace if needed. Refer to Harness Connector Inspection. If the intermediate connectors A-54X, D-01 and D-06 are in good condition, repair the harness wire between the data link connector C-69 and fusible link (6).
Then confirm that the malfunction symptom is eliminated.

STEP 2. Check the ground line at the data link connector C-69.




(1) Check for the continuity between terminal 4, 5 and ground.
- There should be continuity (0 ohms).
If no continuity, repair the harness wire between the data link connector C-69 and the ground.
If continuity, replace the scan tool.
Then confirm that the malfunction symptom is eliminated.
