1. With the ignition switch in the OFF position, connect
the DLC Breakout Box to the vehicle DLC.

2. Turn the ignition switch to ON position. Upon vehicle

power up, the tool will display battery voltage.
The tool will check each pin for power, ground,
and communication and will light or flash the
corresponding LED. 2 - Bus (+) PWM/VPW J1850
