Required Special Tools:
- MB992744: Vehicle communication interface-Lite (V.C.I.-Lite)
- MB992745: V.C.I.-Lite main harness A
- MB992747: V.C.I.-Lite USB cable short

- MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: Vehicles Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
- MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable
- MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN communication system)
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-III), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-III).
With OSS, the power supply cannot be turned ON until the certification communication with KOS is complete. However, using the scan tool, the power can be forced ON even when the certification communication with KOS is not completed. Through this process, the error in certification with KOS can be distinguished from the malfunction in power supply. In addition, the process allows the CAN bus diagnosis as well as the reading of diagnostic trouble code, belonging to systems other than OSS, to be performed.
