Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Signal Description
General
All the values given below are between the respective terminal in column 1 and terminal #C1:10 in column 2 (power ground) unless otherwise stated in parenthesis after the table entry.
It is important to connect the breakout box and check the ground connections before starting to measure.
| U= | DC voltage in volts (V) | UAC = | AC voltage in volts (V) |
| Ubat = | Battery voltage (V) | f = | Frequency in Hertz (Hz) |
| Ulow = | Voltage approximately 0 V | t = | Time in seconds |
| PWM = | Pulse width modulated signal as a % |
| Connector C1 |

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
