ISO 15031-3

Road vehicles — Communication between vehicle and external equipment for emissions-related diagnostics — Part 3: Diagnostic connector and related electrical circuits: Specification and use

This document references the latest publication of SAE J1962. On-board diagnostic (OBD) regulations require road vehicles to be equipped with a standardized connector for purposes of access to OBD information by external test equipment. This document describes the requirements for the physical connection and associated pin usage to allow for standard access to the OBD data. This document is technically equivalent to SAE J1962 with the exception of the specific requirements identified and the specification of additional requirements related to right hand driven (RHD) vehicles.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Introduction

The ISO 15031 series consists of a number of parts which, taken together, provide a coherent self-

consistent set of specifications to facilitate emissions-related diagnostics. ISO 15031-1 provides

an overview about communication between vehicle and external equipment for emissions-related

diagnostics. ISO 15031-2 through ISO 15031-7 are based on SAE recommended practices. This document

is based on SAE J1962 (diagnostic connector).

The first edition of this document was based on SAE J1962 and was intended to meet European

OBD requirements for 2000 and later model year vehicles, and added a modified connector ty
