5.1 Interpretacja wskaźników LED

The breakout box features various colored LEDs to indicate the status of different pins:

  • Red LED (Pin 16): Illuminates steadily if the vehicle's power supply is normal.
  • Green LEDs (Pins 4/5): Illuminate steadily if a normal car ground is detected.
  • Yellow LEDs (Pins 2/6/7/10/14/15): Flash with a signal waveform when the diagnostic tool is communicating with the vehicle via the respective protocol.
