The On-Board Diagnostic II (OBD-II) System Check is the starting point for any driveability complaint diagnosis. The OBD-II system check is an organized approach to identifying problems created by an electronic engine control system malfunction. Before any DTC(s) are retrieved, perform a visual underhood inspection, checking battery and grounds for clean and tight connections. Check for poor connections or damage to wiring harness and electrical connectors. Check for corroded terminals or corrosion buildup on any connection. If problem is found, repair as necessary.
