Abstract
A system for diagnosing an in-cable control box (ICCB) is installed in a vehicle, electrically connected, at one side thereof, to a low-speed charging cable having the ICCB, electrically connected, at another side thereof, to an on-board diagnostics (OBD) device, and is configured to diagnose the ICCB. The system includes a Control Pilot (CP) data conversion unit configured to receive charging situation data produced from the ICCB; a Controller Area Network (CAN) communication unit configured to receive diagnosis initiating data for the ICCB produced from the OBD device; and a control unit configured to receive the charging situation data from the CP data conversion unit, convert the charging situation data into data recognizable by the OBD device, receive the diagnosis initiating data from the CAN communication unit, and convert the diagnosis initiating data into data recognizable by the ICCB.
