How many volts does a 16 Volt DLC have?

How many volts does a 16 Volt DLC have?

Pin 16 is 12 volts all the time for all makes of vehicle. TIP WHEN YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT THE VOLTAGE READING Get hold of a wiring diagram first so you will know what pin at the DLC is working.

Where are the pins for the DLC connector?

Let’s begin at the 16-pin data link connector (DLC) found under the dash. The DLC pins are arranged in two rows of eight, numbered left to right, with pin #1 located at the top left corner and pin #16 at the bottom right corner.

How can I measure the voltage of my DLC?

Since most of these 16 pin terminals of the DLC are used to communicate with your vehicle modules, you can use the following guide to measure the power, ground and signal data link voltages readings as shown below. 1.) With your voltmeter negative lead connected to the battery ground post and positive lead connected to following terminal pins:

What should the voltage be on a Class 2 serial pin?

With the Ignition on, the voltage on class 2 serial data pin should be 5V or fluctuating between 3.5V and 5.0V, If open, PCM cannot transmit data to the scan tool. Connect positive DMM lead to DLC Battery + terminal Connect negative DMM lead to battery ground terminal

When does pin 6 start showing zero voltage?

Pin 6 should read zero voltage from 2003-2004 for GM and Ford vehicles but would start showing voltage reading on 2005 model, Chrysler would show zero voltage from 2003-2006 but would start showing voltage reading on 2007 model. Finally, Toyota vehicles showed voltage reading starting 2003 -2008 models.
