Page 23: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Emission Related Monitoring

• Unlike OBD I, OBD II not only monitors an actuator was commanded on, but tests the system to make sure it actually worked!!!

Page 24: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

OBD II Monitors• Designed to detect failures that would cause

emissions to increase by 50% or would shorten the life of the catalytic converter

– 1 pin is B+ to power Scan Tool

– DLC to be located on drivers side near steering column or have a location label

Page 27: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

MIL Regulations• MIL will illuminate when an increase

in emissions = to 1.5 X the FTP is inferred

• Or when the PCM/Network itself malfunctions

• The MIL shall not be used for any other purpose!!!

Page 28: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

MIL Operation• MIL On

– a fault has been detected (and confirmed?)

• MIL Off– No fault has been detected

– Test have not been run

• MIL Flashing– Catalyst damaging misfire or air fuel problem

detected

Page 29: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Diagnostic Trouble Codes

• Common numbering system for all DTCs– Alpha Numeric

– 5 digit

• DTCs must be similar in meaning

• DTC designation must be common

• SAE standard J2012

Page 30: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

DTC Numbering• 1st Digit

– Alpha Character

– “P” - Powertrain

– “C” - Chassis

– “B” - Body

– “U” - Uart / multiplexing / networking

Page 31: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

DTC Numbering• 2nd Digit or thousandth position

• Either “1” or “0”

• “0” Codes are SAE / OBD II Controlled

• “1” Codes are Manufacturer Specific

Page 32: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

DTC Numbering• 3rd Digit or hundredth position

• System Fault

• “100” - Fuel & Air Metering

Page 35: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Diagnostic Trouble CodesOBD I vs. OBD II

1. OBD II requires “code enabling criteria” be met (maybe twice) before a code is stored. OBD I only needed abnormality

2. OBD II for emissions ONLY! OBD I is not. Most OEMs recommend fixing OBD I first - before checking / repairing OBD II

Page 36: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Diagnostic Trouble CodesOBD I vs. OBD II

• OBD I diagnostic procedure was to…– Pull Codes– Record Codes– Erase Codes– Operate Vehicle – Pull Codes

• Erasing OBD II Codes will also erase Freeze Frame Data

Page 37: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Diagnostic Trouble CodesOBD I vs. OBD II

• OBD II has no “soft codes”

• OBD II diagnostic procedure– Pull Code– Record Freeze Frame Data– Repair Root Cause– Operate vehicle at Freeze Frame parameters– Meet code enable criteria– Run monitor

Page 38: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

MULTIPLEXING• Vehicles use multiple onboard

computers

• Faults in other computers can disable monitors due to multiplexing

• Example– Wheel Speed Sensors used to verify

rough road to prevent false misfire codes

Page 39: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Code Enable Criteria• Definition

• P0134 - HO2S - 11 Remains At Center (B1 S1) Code Conditions:– Engine runtime over 2 minutes, ECT sensor input

more than 176 degrees F, then the test started and the PCM detected that the front HO2S-11 signal was 0.5v (fixed at mid-range for 1 minute)

Page 40: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

Page 91: OBD II UPDATE TRAINING COURSE. OBD II Module Outline OBD II Foundation OBD II History OBD II Terminology OBD I vs OBD II OBD II MIL Operation DTCs (A

MISFIRE MONITORS“ROUGH ROAD”

is occurring.
