Scope and Methodology
The scope of ISO 15031 compliance testing encompasses various aspects related to the OBD system installed in vehicles intended for export. This includes verifying that the vehicle's OBD complies with the requirements specified by this international standard. The methodology involves several stages, each crucial for ensuring accurate results.
Firstly, we prepare the vehicle according to manufacturer specifications and relevant international standards such as ISO 15031 itself. This ensures consistency across tests conducted on different models from various manufacturers. Once prepared, detailed diagnostics checks are performed using specialized OBD II scanners capable of reading and interpreting DTCs generated by the vehicle's ECU.
The next step involves executing specific procedures outlined in ISO 15031 to ensure all required codes are recorded accurately. This process may vary depending on the type of vehicle being tested, but generally includes several key tasks like resetting codes after a certain period or under defined conditions. After completing these tests, comprehensive analyses are conducted on the data collected during testing.
Our analysts then review this information carefully to identify any discrepancies or areas requiring further attention. Any issues identified are documented thoroughly and reported back along with recommendations for corrective actions if necessary. Compliance reports are generated in accordance with international standards like ISO 15031, ensuring clear communication of results."
