Reported risk: When some scan tools are connected to the diagnostic connector on the vehicle they expect to see a vehicle ground on pin 5 of the diagnostic connector. Pin 5 of the diagnostic connector has no wire in place to supply a ground point. It is a legal requirement in NAS and for EOBD certified vehicles in the EU to have a vehicle ground in pin 5. Remedy: Recall affected vehicles and fit a pin to position 5 on the diagnostic connector and splice to the existing earth point.
