Diagnostic Interface
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Kia Optima, 2007 Kia Magentis, 2006 Kia Optima, and 2006 Kia Magentis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Failures detected by the ECU are encoded on the ECU, stored in a EEPROM and read out by diagnostic equipment when the ignition switch is turned on.
The diagnosis interface can also be used for testing the ECU during production of the ECU and for actuating the HCU in the test line of manufacturers factories (Air-bleeding line or Roll and Brake Test line).
