​How Does OBD-II Work

-

 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are stored in the computer system. Codes can vary from one manufacturer to another. However, anyone with an OBD-II scan tool can connect to the port and read the diagnostic trouble codes from the computer.

​How Does OBD-II Work

The reason any OBD-II scan tool can read the codes is because of the standardized pinout. Scan tools can read from any of the protocols listed above. The standardized pinout is as follows.

Pin 1: Used by manufacturer

Pin 2: Used by SAE J1850 PWM and VPW

Pin 3: Used by manufacturer

Pin 4: Ground

Pin 5: Ground

Pin 6: Used by ISO 15765-4 CAN

Pin 7: The K-Line of ISO 9141-2 and ISO 14230-4

Pin 10: Used only by SAE J1850 PWM

Pin 14: Used by ISO 15765-4 CAN

Pin 15: The K-Line of ISO 9141-2 and ISO 14230-4

Pin 16: Power from the car battery

OBD-II scanners can connect to these ports and identify the trouble code from any manufacturer that uses one of the OBD-II protocols.

  SAE J1939 (hereinafter referred to as J1939) is the recommended standard of the American Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). It is controlled and communicated by the "Truck and Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee" (Track & Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee). Developed and written by the Track & Bus Control and Communications Network Subcommittee. J1939 has become a recognized industry standard and choice for commercial vehicle diagnostics and data communication heavy, off-highway, truck, bus, ship propulsion, power generation, industrial pumping, construction, and material handling machinery. J1939 is a high-level protocol network (CAN) based on Controller Area. It is widely used by the diesel engine industry to provide diagnostic data such as vehicle engine speed, temperature, oil temperature, exhaust emissions, and other customizable options. J1939 connectors are divided into black and green rubber cores, but do you know the difference between t...

Benefits of overmolded connectors and wiring harnesses?

What is overmolding? In short, overmolding is an injection molding process in which two or more materials are used to combine a harness wire and a connector to form a single part, and the cable assembly is placed in a mold. In this process, the first material substrate will be covered by other materials. The overmolding process requires the use of insert molding (single injection) or multiple injection molding techniques to cover rigid plastic parts with TPU layers or other overmolding materials. So what are the benefits of the connector and harness overmolding process? Benefits of overmolding connectors and harnesses: 1. Increase the flexibility of the cable harness exit so that most of the movement between the cable harness and the connector occurs at the cable harness exit. 2. Provide abrasion resistance, impact resistance or impact resistance. 3. Fix the cable assembly by sealing the assembly in plastic. 4. Provide 360 degree strain relief and increase tension. 5. Cr...

​Cars are equipped with diagnostics tool or obd-ii ports

Modern cars have the capacity of a few computers, are tooled with software that contains millions of lines of programming code and produce gigabytes of data, but they are still different from connected cars. ​ A smart vehicle is able to optimize its performance to reduce fuel consumption, show the best path to follow taking into account current traffic and weather conditions, detect errors in the engine and collect information data to negotiate lower insurance rates. Most cars and light trucks are equipped with on-board diagnostics or an OBD II port that provides access to data from the engine control unit (ECU). To get the information you need to plug in an external device. The OBD-II specifications provide a standardized hardware interface - a female 16-pin (2x8) J1962 connector, so a single external device can be used for most car models. It also should have an Internet connection to transfer the collected data. OBD-II connects to the Internet, and generally needs to use th...
