DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
(a) Description
Engine ECU controls the function of immobiliser on this
vehicle.
Data of the immobiliser or DiagnosticTrouble Code (DTC)
can be read from the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the
vehicle. When a trouble occurs in immobiliser, Malfunc-
tion Indicator Lamp (MIL) does not light ON but DTC in-
spection is performed.
DLC3
D01600
Therefore when there seems to be a trouble with immobi-
liser, use hand–held tester or SST (diagnosis check wire
No. 2) to check and troubleshoot it.
(b) Inspect the DLC3.
The vehicle’s engine ECU uses ISO 14230 for commu-
nication.
The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with
SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 14230 format.

HINT:
If your display shows ”UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE”
when you have connected the cable of the hand–held tester to
the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the
hand–held tester, there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool
side.
S
If communication is normal when the tool is connected to
another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If communication is still impossible when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the
tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the
tool’s instruction manual.
