OBD-I needs a corded connection and the port is usually found under the hood, while an OBD-II port is usually located within a couple of feet of the steering wheel and data will often be accessed via an ODB-II adapter that supports Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity.

Condition: Service Manuals are used in Dealership Shops, Independent Garages and in Fleet Environments and thus can reflect such use, most often showing extensive signs of soiling, age, and wear. This is not a coffee table book. With this type of book, it is the content that reigns supreme and the information within is still legible and can give valuable insight into the care and maintenance of a vehicle. The images shown are representative of what is shipped.
