PROCEDURE
- Check for voltage supply at Data Link Connector (DLC) A (Black) in vehicle, observe polarity while performing this check:
^ Terminal 1 goes to Battery negative (-)
^ Terminal 2 goes to Battery positive (+) (fuse 19)
- If battery voltage is not obtained, check wiring using wiring diagram, repair or replace as necessary.
- Check wiring for continuity between ECM and DLC.
DLC connector B (White)
^ Terminal 1 goes to C 13 of the ECM
^ Terminal 2 goes to C 12 of the ECM
DLC connector C (Blue)
^ Terminal 2 goes to C 14 of the ECM
