Performing a Scan – OBD2 Diagnostics

OBD2 DIAGNOSTICS 

The 

OBD2 Diagnostics

 function allows you to perform OBD2 scans, view &

PERFORMING A SCAN – OBD2 Diagnostics

1. 

Follow the 

AutoLink Connection 

steps. [

See page 9

]

2. 

Tap 

OBD2 Diagnostics

.

The tablet automatically starts a check of the vehicle’s computer to determine which 

communication protocol it is using. When the tablet identifies the computer’s communication 

protocol, a communication link is established.

NOTE:

 A PROTOCOL is a set of rules and procedures for regulating data 

transmission between computers, and between testing equipment and computers. 

As of this writing, five different types of protocols (ISO 9141, Keyword 2000, J1850 

PWM, J1850 VPW and CAN) are in use by vehicle manufacturers. 

If the Scan Tool fails to link to the vehicle’s computer, a “Scan Failed” message shows.

 

Ensure the vehicle is OBD2 compliant–check vehicle emission control information (VECI) 

label located in the vehicle’s engine compartment.

 

Verify the connection at the DLC, and verify the ignition is ON.

 

Turn the ignition OFF, wait 5 seconds, then back ON to reset the computer.

 

Tap 

Try Again

 to try again, or tap 

Cancel 

to return to the Home Page.

3. 

A progress dialog displays while the tablet retrieves any Diagnostic Trouble Codes, Monitor Status and Freeze 

Frame Data from the vehicle’s computer memory.

4. 

When the retrieval process is complete, the 

OBD2 Diagnostics

 screen displays with the scan results.

VIEWING SCAN RESULTS – OBD2 Diagnostics

following  completion  of  a  scan;

].
