Following on from my questions about OBDC and warning lamp fault codes, I found the diagnosis section in the workshop manual (General/Base manual/Diagnosis function - 00p336.pdf page 6)
(I had seen the timing diagram before, but didn't notice the part about grounding OBDC pin 1)
Anyway, jumpering pin 1 (diagnosis terminal) to pin 4 (signal ground) and turning on the ignition brings on the fault codes display:-
Engine, Neutral, and Anti-skid lamps all flash at constant 2Hz rate - Good, no fault codes there.
But the manual page also mentions the Traction control and Cruise control lamps, and they show no activity. (TCL lamps both on, CC lamp off)
Should something be happening with those?
Some other curiosities:-
Pin 1 does go to the TCL ECU, so something might be expected from it.
Pin 1 does NOT go to the CC ECU (that I can see), so how could it respond?
Pin 1 also connects to the AirCon ECU, but it appears that no response from that ECU should be expected in this situation.
Also, the AirCon and Cruise ECUs have separate dedicated OBDC pins (11 & 13).
Maybe grounding those will do something?
Does anybody know about those?
