The SAE J1962 diagnostic connector consists of two mating connectors, the vehicle connector (see
Figure 1) and the test equipment connector (see
Figure 2). This document:
- a Defines the functional requirements for the vehicle connector. These functional requirements are separated into four principal areas: connector location/access, connector design, connector terminal assignments, and connector electrical interface requirements.
- b Defines the functional requirements for the test equipment connector. These functional requirements are separated into three principal areas: connector design, connector terminal assignments, and connector electrical interface requirements.
The scope of this document does not include the needs of long-term retention, such as in-flight recorder type applications. To ensure long-term retention, additional steps outside of the scope of this document must be taken.
