Pinpoint Test K: No Module/Network Communication - No Power To The Diagnostic Tool

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford Pickup, 2005 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2005 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. K1 CHECK THE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL CONNECTOR FOR DAMAGE 
    • Inspect the diagnostic tool pins for damage.
    • Are the pins OK? 
    • Yes  : GO to K2.
    • No  : REPAIR the diagnostic tool connector as necessary. CARRY OUT the data link diagnostics test.
  2. K2 CHECK THE DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC) C251 FOR DAMAGE 
    • Inspect the DLC C251 pins for damage.
    • Are the pins OK? 
    • Yes  : GO to K3.
    • No  : REPAIR the DLC C251 as necessary. CARRY OUT the data link diagnostics test.
  3. K3 CHECK CIRCUIT 40 (LB/WH) FOR VOLTAGE 
    • Key in ON position.
    • Measure the voltage between the DLC C251 pin 16, circuit 40 (LB/WH), harness side and ground.

    • Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? 
    • Yes  : GO to K4.
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit. CARRY OUT the data link diagnostics test.
  4. K4 CHECK CIRCUITS 57 (BK) AND 570 (BK/WH) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Measure the resistance between the DLC C251 pin 4, (BK), harness side and ground; and between the DLC 5, circuit 570 (BK/WH), harness side and ground.
