OBD II Diagnostic Management System
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Location
825R100018826RY002
Class 2 Serial Data Bus
OBD II technology requires a much more sophisticated
PCM than does OBD I technology. The OBD II PCM
diagnostic management system not only monitors
systems and components that can impact emissions, but
they also run active tests on these systems and
components. The decision making functions of OBD II
PCMs have also greatly increased. To accommodate this
expansion in diagnostic complexity, Isuzu engineers have
designed the Class 2 serial data bus, which meets SAE
J1850 recommended practice for serial data.
ªSerial Dataº refers to information which is transferred in a
linear fashion ± over a single line, one bit at a time. A ªData
Busº is an electronic pathway through which serial data
travels.AXIOM previously used a 5 volt data bus called UART,
which is an acronym for ªUniversal Asynchronous
Receive and Transmitº. When neither the vehicle's
control module nor the diagnostic tool, such as a Tech 2,
are ªtalking,º the voltage level of the bus at rest is 5 volts.
The two computers talk to each other at a rate of 8,192
bits per second, by toggling or switching the voltage on
the data bus from 5 volts to ground.
Class 2 data, which is used on OBD II vehicles, is quite
different. Data is transferred at a rate of 10.4 kilobits per
second, and the voltage is toggled between zero and 7
volts.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) looks the same as
the MIL you are already familiar with (ªCHECK ENGINEº
lamp). However, OBD II requires for it illuminate under a
strict set of guidelines. Basically, the MIL is turned on
when the PCM detects a DTC that will impact the vehicle's
emissions.
The MIL is under the control of the Diagnostic Executive.
The MIL will be turned on if a component or system which
has an impact on vehicle emissions indicates a
malfunction or fails to pass an emissions±related
diagnostic test. It will stay on until the system or
component passes the same test, for three consecutive
trips, with no emissions±related faults.
DTC Types
Each DTC is directly related to a diagnostic test. The
Diagnostic Management System sets DTC based on the
failure of the tests during a trip or trips. Certain tests must
fail two (2) consecutive trips before the DTC is set. The
following are the four (4) types of DTCs and the
characteristics of those codes:
Type A
Emissions related
Requests illumination of the MIL of the first trip with a
fail
Stores a History DTC on the first trip with a fail
Stores a Freeze Frame (if empty) (DTC Information
for 6VE1 engine)
Stores a Fail Record
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
Type B
Emissions related
ªArmedº after one (1) trip with a fail
ªDisarmedº after one (1) trip with a pass
Requests illumination of the MIL on the
second
consecutive trip
with a fail
Stores a History DTC on the second consecutive trip
with a fail (The DTC will be armed after the first fail)
Stores a Freeze Frame on the second consecutive
trip with a fail (if empty) (DTC Information for 6VE1
engine)
Stores a Fail Record when the first test fails (not
dependent on
consecutive trip fails)
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
(Some special conditions apply to misfire and fuel trim
DTCs)
Type C (if the vehicle is so equipped)
Non-Emissions related
Requests illumination of the Service Lamp or the
service message on the Drive Information Center
(DIC) on the
first trip with a fail
Stores a History DTC on the
first trip with a fail
Does not store a Freeze Frame
Stores Fail Record when test fails
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
Type D
Non-Emissions related
Not request illumination of any lamp
Stores a History DTC on the
first trip with a fail
Does not store a Freeze Frame
Stores Fail Record when test fails
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (4L30±E)7A1±23
Intermittent Conditions
If the Tech 2 displays a diagnostic trouble code as
intermittent, or if after a test drive a DTC does not
reappear though the detection conditions for this DTC are
present, the problem is most likely a faulty electrical
connection or loose wiring. Terminals and grounds should
always be the prime suspect. Intermittents rarely occur
inside sophisticated electronic components such as the
PCM.
Use the DTC information to understand which wires and
sensors are involved.
When an intermittent problem is encountered, check
suspect circuits for:
1. Poor terminal to wire connection.
2. Terminals not fully seated in the connector body
(backed out).
3. Improperly formed or damaged terminals.
4. Loose, dirty, or corroded ground connections:
HINT: Any time you have an intermittent in more than
one circuit, check whether the circuits share a
common ground connection.5. Pinched or damaged wires.
6. Electro±Magnetic Interference (EMI):
HINT: Check that all wires are properly routed away
from coil, and generator. Also check for improperly
installed electrical options, such as lights, 2±way
radios, etc.
Use the F2: SNAPSHOT mode of the Tech 2 to help
isolate the cause of an intermittent fault. The snapshot
mode will record information before and after the problem
occurs. Set the snapshot to ªtriggerº on the suspect DTC.
If you notice the reported symptom during the test drive,
trigger the snapshot manually.
After the snapshot has been triggered, command the
Tech 2 to play back the flow of data recorded from each of
the various sensors. Signs of an intermittent fault in a
sensor circuit are sudden unexplainable jump in data
values out of the normal range.

TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (4L30±E)7A1±27
DTC P0705 Transmission Range Switch (Mode Switch) Illegal Position
D07R200005
Circuit Description
The range switch supplies the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) with information regarding the selector
lever position: P, R, N, D, 3, 2 or L. The selector lever
position is indicated by the state of four ON/OFF
contacts. The range switch is located on one side of
the transmission. It is on the transmission manual
shaft and is fixed to the main case.
The range switch is also used to provide the
information P or N to the engine crank wiring. The
engine can be cranked only if connector E±41
terminal 4(H) is connected to terminal 1(E) which is
connected to ground.
The range switch is also used to provide the backup
lamp power in reverse. This is the reason why the
range switch is supplied through a 15A fuse (TURN,
BACK UP). This fuse can burn due to a short circuit in
the back up lamp.
This DTC detects when a fuse is open or the range switch
circuit does not work. This is a type ªDº DTC.
Conditions For Setting The DTC
Range switch illegal positions met for 5 seconds.
Action Taken When The DTC Sets
Default to D position.
Inhibit torque management.
Maximum line pressure.Turn Force Motor OFF.
The PCM will not illuminate the Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL).
Conditions For Clearing The DTC
The DTC can be cleared from the PCM history by
using a scan tool.
The DTC will be cleared from history when the vehicle
has achieved 40 warmup cycles without a failure
reported.
The PCM will cancel the DTC default actions when
the fault no longer exists and the ignition is cycled ªoffº
long enough to power down the PCM.
Diagnostic Aids
Refer to accompanying chart for the normal range
signals and the illegal combinations.
Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at
the PCM and at the transmission 8±way connector.
Look for possible bent, backed out, deformed or
damaged terminals. Check for weak terminal tension
as well. Also check for a chafed wire that could short
to bare metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire
inside the insulation.
When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or
open condition, move the wiring harness while
observing test equipment for a change.
Refer to the
ªRange Switch Logic Tableº for further
information.
