CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE Using the Diagnostic Tool CODE RETRIEVAL PROCEDURE Retrieving and using Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) for troubleshooting vehicle operation is only one part of an overall diagnostic strategy. Never replace a part based only on the DTC definition. Each DTC has a set of testing procedures, instructions and flow charts that must be followed to confirm the location of the problem. This information is found in the vehicle's service manual. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for detailed testing instructions. Check your vehicle thoroughly before performing any test. See BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 35 for details. ALWAYS observe safety precautions whenever working on a vehicle. See SAFETY FIRST! on page 3 for more information. 1. Turn the ignition off. 2. Locate the vehicle's 16-pin Data Link Connector (DLC). See page 5 for connector location. Some DLCs have a plastic cover that must be removed before connecting the Diagnostic Tool cable connector. If the Diagnostic Tool is ON, turn it OFF by pressing the POWER/LINK button BEFORE connecting the Diagnostic Tool to the DLC. 3. Connect the Diagnostic Tool cable connector to the vehicle’s DLC. The cable connector is keyed and will only fit one way. � If you have problems connecting the cable connector to the DLC, rotate the connector 180° and try again. � If you still have problems, check the DLC on the vehicle and on the Diagnostic Tool. Refer to your vehicle’s service manual to properly check the vehicle’s DLC. 4. When the Diagnostic Tool’s cable connector is properly connected to the vehicle’s DLC, the unit automatically turns ON, and links to the vehicle’s onboard computer. OBD2 37
