I thought US imports used the same protocol as JPN (ISO?) but Euro cars used CAN-BUS :shrugs:

 

I don't think we are on can-bus, if we were we would see much faster updates than 3/second I'll check next time I have stuff connected up, but pretty sure we are on an ISO standard too.

Gravel, have you tried a software reader rather than hardware thing? they seem so support a wider range of protocols cause its easy to add stuff to software rather than some ROM storage that is manufactured in.

Hi guys, thanks for the replies.

My UK car is definately ISOxxxx - I've not tried my all singing-all-dancing ELM327 + OBD2007 on a JDM car but I know a non-CAN bus one won't work...

 

Not positive... but, I think the '03+ are possibly CAN. I don't know about the euro versions, though. They may have been CAN. I know my USDM '02 is ISO.

Either ISO 9141 or CAN for late model Toyotas.

 

I have Nooooo idea what they used for a protocol on the Japanese cars.

You might call a company like Drew Technologies and see if they know.

 

Hi all,

I'm new here, for what I've been tried, my 2001 JDM ZZT231 is none of any
OBDII compliant, I did sent the log file to glmsoft of obd2007, and they confirm that my car is not OBDII compliant.

please let me know if you found a right scanner.

 

Up to 2008 most European Toyotas don't use Can-Bus, we are ISO OBD-II (EOBD).

As for your 7th gen Celica you might want to try OBD 1 scanner. This is the protocol most aging Hondas use from that time as well.

Edit: although in many parts of the world OBD-II was mandatory after 2000-2001 I found info that many JDM Toyotas do not use OBD-II up until 2003. Try with some older OBD-1 scanner I think it will work.

You can use alternative method to flash the CEL using the check engine light and then manually decode it.

Try this ukraine website and translate with google:

Have you tried the Toyota Euro .docs website?

 

OK, on the JDM machines what i use to do dignostic scanning is the LAUNCH diagnostic computer...allows you full access to all systems, eg. engage and disengage lift at standstill, AC system dignostic and real time dignostics while moving. the OBDII scanners will not work. They will detect the ECu but will not be able to conect sucessufully to it.

 

Are the pinouts different?

If so I'll go and have a look at the connector and have an answer for you then.

For what it's worth I don't think the early ones are CAN because I haven't seen mention of various controllers anywhere in the EPC.

 

Edit:

Ok, so this is my diag port. Using pins 4,6,7,9, 13, 14, 16

Pin out info from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics

Also does this mean that this reader will work properly with my celica: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/USB-...0Q2em14QQhashZitem5633380073QQitemZ370226495603QQptZMotorsQ5fAutomotiveQ5fTools

 

is there any update on this, i have the same obd and i'm getting no response from my obd2 scanner.

what protocol is the jdm car?

 

The conclusion I came to was it was using a toyota comms protocol so if you need a code read you need to visit a toyota dealer or someone with the appropriate diag gear (such as a Bosch KTS 650).

 

So there is no way for us to read info coming off the engine like standard obd ports?
I really want to get some type of monitoring coming off the engine without going into the ecu.

 

What are you looking to monitor?

It wouldn't be that difficult to build a hardware setup to take data direct from sensors (it wouldnt be that cheap either).

 

Can i ask where ya found this chart man?

I might have a look at the pins and make a circuit to receive data.
Or even have a look around and see if anyone's done this.
Pain in the hole this

 

It's from the Bosch KTS help system.
