the fuse box below the dashboard in most
vehicles. Should you not find the OBD II–
socket, please see the vehicle manual or ask
your vehicle manufacturer.

with diesel engines, which are equipped with
OBD II-socket and contain the following
diagnostic protocols: VPW, CAN, PWM,
KWP2000, ISO 9141 and EKWP2000.
