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.

·Always perform automotive testing in a safe

environment.

·Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI

standards.

· Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test

equipment, etc. Away from all moving or hot

engine parts.

·Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work

area: Exhaust gases are poisonous.

·Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and

never leave the vehicle unattended while

running tests.

·Use extreme caution when working around the

ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition

wires and spark plugs. Theses components

create hazardous voltages when the engine is

running.

·NEUTRAL (for manual transmission) and make

sure the sparking brake is engaged.

· Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for

Creator OBDII/EOBD scanner

gasoline/chemical/electrical fires nearby.

· Don’t connect or disconnect any test

equipment while the ignition is on or the

engine is running.

· 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

Diagnostics system increased. A new generation

of On-Broad Diagnostic system was developed.

This second generation of On-Broad 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 the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)

is commanded ‘on ‘or ‘off’;

Creator OBDII/EOBD scanner

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 might 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 Connecter) is the standardized 16-cavity

connector where diagnostic scan tools

interface is 12 inches from the center of

instrument panel (dash), under or around the

Creator OBDII/EOBD scanner

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 OBDII system

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.

Creator OBDII/EOBD scanner

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

exact number of monitors in any vehicle

depends on 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

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

Creator OBDII/EOBD scanner

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 Statuses

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”, or “complete”,

meaning they have been tested by the OBD II

system. The purpose of recording readiness

states is to allow inspectors to determine if

vehicle’s OBD II system has tested all the

components and/or systems.

The power train control module (PCM) sets a

monitor to “Ready” or “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 to “Not ready”. Since the three

continuous monitors are constantly

evaluating, they will be reported as
