1. Safety Precautions and Warnings
To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the scan
tool, read this instruction manual first and observe the following safety
precautions at a minimum whenever working on a vehicle:
1. Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
2. Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
3. Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equi pment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.
4. Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area: Exhaust gases are
poisonous.
5. Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while running tests.
6. Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor
cap,ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create hazardous
voltages when the engine is running.
7. Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or
NEUTRAL (for manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake is
engaged.
8. Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/chemical/electrical fires
nearby.
9. Don't connect or disconnect any test equi pment while the ignition is on
or the engine is running.
10. Keep the scan tool dry, clean, free from oil/water or grease. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the scan tool,when
necessary.
2. General Information
2.1 On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) II
The first generation of On-Board Diagnostics (called OBD I) was
developed by the California Air Resources Board (ARB) and implemented
in 1988 to monitor some of the emission control components on vehicles.
As technology evolved and the desire to improve the On-Board Diagnostic
system increased,a new generation of On-Board Diagnostic system was
developed. This second generation of On-Board Diagnostic regulations is
called "OBD II".

The OBD II system is designed to monitor emission control systems
and key engine components by performing either continuous or periodic
tests of specific components and vehicle conditions. When a problem
is detected, the OBD II system turns on a warning lamp (MIL) on the
vehicle instrument panel to alert the driver typically by the phrase of
"Check Engine" or "Service Engine Soon". The system will also store
important information about the detected malfunction so that a technician
can accurately find and fix the problem. Here below follow three pieces of
such valuable information:
1). Whether th Malfunction Indicator Lig ht (MIL) is commanded 'on' or 'off';
2). Which,if any,Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are stored;
3) Readiness Monitor status.
2.2 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Codes are codes that are stored by the on-
board computer diagnostic system in response to a problem found in the
vehicle. These codes identify a particular problem area and are intended
to provide you with a guide as to where a fault mig ht be occurring
within a vehicle. OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Codes consist of a five-digit
alphanumeric code. The first character, a letter,identifies which control
system sets the code. The other four characters, all numbers, provide
additional information on where the DTC originated and the operating
conditions that caused it to set. Here below is an example to illustrate the
structure of the digits:

2.3 Location of the Data Link Connector (DLC)
The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is the
standardized 16-cavity connector where diagnostic scan tools interface
with the vehicle's on-board computer. The DLC is usually located 12
inches from the center of the instrument panel (dash),under or around the
driver's side for most vehicles. If Data Link Connector is not located under
dashboard, a label should be there telling location. For some Asian and
European vehicles,the DLC is located behind the ashtray and the ashtray
must be removed to access the connector. If the DLC cannot be found,
refer to the vehicle's service manual for the location.
2.4 OBD II Readiness Monitors
An important part of a vehicle's OBD II system is the Readiness
Monitors, which are indicators used to find out if all of the emissions
components have been evaluated by the OBD II system. They are running
periodic tests on specific systems and components to ensure that they
are performing within allowable limits.
Currently,there are eleven OBD II Readiness Monitors (or I/M Monitors)
defined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA). Not all
monitors are supported by all vehicles and the exact number of monitors
in any vehicle dependson the motor vehicle manufacturer's emissions
control strategy.
Continuous Monitors -- Some of the vehicle components or systems
are continuously tested by the vehicle's OBD II system,while others are
tested only under specific vehicle operating conditions. The continuously

6
monitored components listed below are always ready:
1. Misfire
2. Fuel System
3. Comprehensive Components (CCM)
Once the vehicle is running, the OBD II system is continuously checking
the above components,monitoring key engine sensors,watching for engine
misfire,and monitoring fuel demands.
Non-Continuous Monitors -- Unlike the continuous monitors,many
emissions and engine system components require the vehicle to be
operated under specific conditions before the monitor is ready. These
monitors are termed non-continuous monitors and are listed below:
1). EGR System
2). O2 Sensors
3). Catalyst
4). Evaporative System
5). O2 Sensor Heater
6). Secondary air
7). Heated Catalyst
8). A/C system
2.5 OBD II Monitor Readiness Status
OBD II systems must indicate whether or not the vehicle's PCM's
monitor system has completed testing on each component. Components
that have been tested will be reported as "Ready", orœ"Complete",
meaning they have been tested by the OBD II system. The purpose
of recording readiness status is to allow inspectors to determine if the
vehicle's OBDII system has tested all the components and/or systems.
The powertrain control module (PCM) sets a monitor to "Ready" or
"Complete" after an appropriate drive cycle has been performed. The
drive cycle that enables a monitor and sets readiness codes to "Ready"
varies for each individual monitor. Once a monitor is set asœ"Ready"
orœ"Complete", it will remain in this state. A number of factors,including
erasing of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) with a scan tool or a
disconnected battery,can result in Readiness Monitors being set toœ"Not
Ready". Since the three continuous monitors are constantly evaluating,

2.6 OBD II Definitions
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) -- OBDII terminology for the on-
board computer that controls engine and drive train.
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) -- Malfunction Indicator Lig ht
(Service Engine Soon,Check Engine) is a term used for the lig ht on the
instrument panel. It is to alert the driver and/or the repair technician that
there is a problem with one or more of vehicle's systems and may cause
emissions to exceed federal standards. If the MIL illuminates with a steady
lig ht,it indicates that a problem has been detected and the vehicle should
be serviced as soon as possible. Under certain conditions,the dashboard
lig ht will blink or flash. This indicates a severe problem and flashing is
intended to discourage vehicle operation. The vehicle onboard diagnostic
system can not turn the MIL off until necessary repairs are completed or
the condition no longer exists.
DTC -- Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) that identify which section of the
emission control system has malfunctioned.
Enabling Criteria --Also termed Enabling Conditions.They are the vehicle-
specific events or conditions that must occur within the engine before the
various monitors will set,or run. Some monitors require the vehicle to follow
a prescribedœ"drive cycle" routine as part of the enabling criteria. Drive
cycles vary among vehicles and for each monitor in any particular vehicle.
OBD II Drive Cycle -- A specific mode of vehicle operation that
provides conditions required to set all the readiness monitors applicable
to the vehicle to the "ready" condition. The purpose of completing an
OBD II drive cycle is to force the vehicle to run its onboard diagnostics.
they will be reported asœ"Ready" all of the time. If testing of a particular
supported non-continuous monitor has not been completed, the monitor
status will be reported as "Not Complete" or "Not Ready".
In order for the OBD monitor system to become ready, the vehicle
should be driven under a variety of normal operating conditions. These
operating conditions may include a mix of hig hway driving and stop and
go, city type driving, and at least one overnig ht-off period. For specific
information on getting your vehicle's OBD monitor system ready, please
consult your vehicle owner's manual.

A small number of 1994 and 1995 model year gasoline vehicles
are OBD II compliant. To verify if a 1994 or 1995 vehicle is OBD II
compliant, check the Vehicle Emissions Control Information (VECI) Label
which is located under the hood or by the radiator of most vehicles. If the
vehicle is OBD II compliant, the label will designate "OBDII Certified".
Additionally, Government regulations mandate that all OBDII compliant
vehicles must have aœ"common" sixteen-pin Data Link Connector (DLC).
For your vehicle to be OBD II compliant it must have a 16-pin DLC
(Data Link Connector) under the dash and the Vehicle Emission Control
Information Label must state that the vehicle is OBD II compliant.
