So you’ll notice that although there is a standard K-line connection for diagnostics, there are separate connections to the SAM, ECU, Steering assist unit ESP controller and the Airbag controller. These will be what the smart diagnostics machine (MB Star) will communicate through instead of going via the K-line.The G1 smart uses ISO 14230-4 to transmit data to the OBD.
