connection will provide power for the OBD II System
Tester. The DLC contains power even when the ignition
is turned off. Connection to the battery is not necessary.
When the OBD II System Tester powers up, a series of screens are displayed. The
screens start with a “Welcome” screen and end with a “Help for Instructions” screen.
Before the “Help for Instructions“ screen, the tool performs a self-test and then displays
the software version “SW ID: xxxx.” Refer to this software version if you need to contact
