Using the HDS (Preferred method)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Acura TL, 2010 Acura TL, and 2009 Acura TL. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Connect the HDS to the Data Link Connector (DLC)

NOTE: There are two ways to read B-CAN code with the HDS

First method. On the HDS, first select BODY ELECTRICAL, then select the subsystem that relates to the problem (for example: door locks, keyless, security, etc.), and then last, select the DTCs

Second method. Ground the SCS circuit with the HDS, then reed the DTCs displayed in the multi-information display (MID) in the gauge assembly, then go to B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A )
