1.1 Important Safety Instructions
Always use your code reader as described in the user’s manual, and follow all safety messages.
Do not route the test cable in a manner that would interfere with driving controls.
EQP-103 User’s Manual
Do not exceed voltage limits between inputs specified in this user’s manual.
Always wear ANSI approved goggles to protect your eyes from propelled objects as well as hot or caustic liquids.
Fuel, oil vapors, hot steam, hot toxic exhaust gases, acid, refrigerant and other debris produced by a malfunction engine can cause serious injury or death. Do not use code reader in areas where explosive vapor may collect, such as in below-ground pits, confined areas, or areas that are less than 18 inches (45 cm) above the floor.
Do not smoke, strike a match, or cause a spark near the vehicle while testing and keep all sparks, heated items and open flames away from the battery and fuel / fuel vapors as they are highly flammable.
Keep a dry chemical fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline, chemical and electrical fires in work area.
Always be aware of rotating parts that move at high speed when an engine is running and keep a safe distance from these parts as well as other potentially moving objects to avoid serious injury.
Do not touch engine components that get very hot when an engine is running to avoid severe burns.
Block drive wheels before testing with engine running. Put the transmission in park (for automatic transmission) or neutral (for manual transmission). And never leave a running engine unattended.
Do not wear jewelry or loose fitting clothing when working on engine.
Make sure to turn off ignition before connecting or disconnecting the code reader.

3. Introduction
The EQP-103 is specially designed to support all 9 OBDII service modes, including live data, O2 sensor test and more, on OBDII / EOBD compliant cars, SUVs, light-duty truck and mini-vans sold worldwide since 1996.
3.1 About OBDII / EOBD
What is OBD?
The first generation of On-Board Diagnostics or OBD I was introduced in early 1980's to control engine functions and diagnose engine problems by vehicle manufacturers. As the OBDI lacked standardisation of protocols and interface, it allowed different interpretations among vehicle manufacturers.
OBDII, the second generation On-Board Diagnostics, improved in both capability and standardisation, is a system developed in mid 1990s by the Society Automotive Engineers (SAE) to standardise automotive electronic diagnosis. EOBD is European version of OBDII required in
Europe since 2001.
The OBDII standard specifies:
• A generic diagnostic port (Data Link Connector) and its pinout;
• The protocols and the messaging format;
• A standard list of vehicle parameters identifications;
• A standard list of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs);
EQP-103 User’s Manual
Data Link Connector
The Data Link Connector (DLC) is a standard 16-pin interface located under the dashboard on the driver's side of the passenger compartment.
If the DLC is not located under the dashboard as stated, a decal describing its location should be attached to the dashboard in the area the DLC should have been located.
NOTE On some Asian and European vehicles the DLC is located behind the “ashtray”, which must be removed to access it, or on the far right corner of the dash. If the DLC cannot be found, consult the vehicle’s service manual for the location.

EQP-103 User’s Manual 8
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are faults stored by vehicle computers when problems that affect engine performance and emissions are detected. DTCs are used to help identify the cause of a trouble or troubles with a vehicle, and determine the fault location(s).
DTCs consist of a five-digit alphanumeric code.
Please see below for the DTCs format and code types.

√ Pending Codes are also referred to as continuous monitor or maturing codes that indicate intermittent faults. If the fault does not occur within a certain number of drive cycles (depending on vehicle), the code clears from memory. If fault occurs a specific number of times, the code matures into a DTC and the MIL illuminates or blinks.

Recording Data
The Record Data function is used to record PIDs to help diagnose intermittent drivability problems that can not be determined by any other method.
A recording consists of 5 frames of data before trigger point and several frames after trigger.
√ There are 2 types of trigger methods used:
• Manual Trigger – triggers recording whenever the operator presses the ENTER key.
• Trigger On DTCs – automatically triggers recording when a code is detected by vehicle.
√ Trigger On DTCs is not available on all vehicles.
√ Some vehicles need to be driven for a long period of time to store a code after a drivability fault occurs. If in the data before and after trigger.
Trigger On DTCs
is selected to make a recording, there might not be drastic change
Do not operate the code reader while driving; always have two persons in vehicle when recording – one to drive and the other to operate the code reader.

5.5 Reading I/M Readiness Status Data
The
II//M
function is used to view a snapshot of the operations for the emission system on OBDII/EOBD vehicles.
√√ I/M Readiness is a useful function used to check if all monitors are OK or N/A.
√√ The vehicle ’ s computer performs tests on the emission system during normal driving conditions. After a specific amount of drive time (each monitor has specific driving conditions and time required), the computer’s monitors decide if the vehicle’s emission system is working correctly. When the monitor ’ s status is:
√√
• OK - vehicle was driven enough to complete the monitor.
• INC (Incomplete) - vehicle was not driven enough to complete the monitor.
• N/A (Not Applicable) - vehicle does not support that monitor.
II//M
function is performed with the KOER or KOEO.
√√ There are two types of I/M Readiness tests:
• Since DTCs Cleared - shows status of the monitors since the
DTCs were last cleared.
• This Drive Cycle - shows status of monitors since the start of the current drive cycle.
√√ Below is a list of abbreviations and names of OBD II monitors supported by the code reader.
