[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I use My DSP and lap top for my own car, but I do a lot of work on locals cars as well. This is going to save my time, money, and eliminate the guessing game. Not all cars are as easy as GM to get codes from. I keep a jumper wire in my glove box just for GM, I have memorized the Cadillac ECM menu, and have pulled many a carpet off passenger side floor boards for 88-91 model Hondas.

What is OBD-II?
OBD-II stands for On-Board Diagnostics, II generation. It is a set of documents issued by SAE and ISO, which describe the interchange of digital information between on-board emission-related Electronic Control Units (ECUs) of road vehicles and an OBD-II scan tool. OBD-II also commonly refers to the physical on-board diagnostic system of a vehicle, which consists of an ECU (or multiple ECUs), Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL), Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC), and the wiring that connect the different elements.
Why do we need OBD-II?
Mainly, you now have a powerful tool to analyze your cars On Board Diagnostic (OBD) data yourself, better even than the specialized scanning tools only dealerships and big automotive repair shops had in the distant past. This will save you money in repair costs by knowing what is or isn't wrong with your car in many cases, and avoid costly trips to the dealership or repair shop.
It resets the check engine lights, reads and clears all generic ,and some manufacture specific ,DTC,displays the I/M readiness status ,views OBD II freeze frame data, displays pending codes,retrieves vehicle information(VIN), and determines the status of the malfunction indicator (MIL) lamp.
How do we know whether my car is OBD-II compliant?
Our OBD2 scan tool will work on 1996 or newer OBD 2 / EODB / JODB compliant cars and trucks, and is based on the ELM327 chip which autodetects all OBDII protocols: CAN, ISO, VPW, PWM, and KWP2000
There are several ways.
1. 1996 or newer model year vehicle sold in the United States
United States legislation requires all cars and light trucks model year (MY) 1996 and newer to be OBD-II compliant. More information is available on the EPA's website.
2001 or newer model year gasoline vehicle sold in the European Union
Note that here "European Union" means countries which were members of the EU in 2000.
2. Other vehicles
If your vehicle does not fall into any of the above categories, look under the hood and try to locate a label that explicitly states that the vehicle was designed to comply with OBD-II legislation.
In this case, OBD-II is used as a general term and can mean any of the following:
OBD II (California ARB)
EOBD (European OBD)
JOBD (Japanese OBD)
You may also consult your vehicle's owner's manual and perhaps contact your local dealer. However, be aware of the fact that many dealers do not know the difference between OBD and OBD-II.
If the vehicle is not OBD-II compliant, you cannot use a generic OBD-II scan tool to obtain diagnostic information from your vehicle.
Vehicle Coverage
European Vehicles
If your petrol passenger vehicle was manufactured for sale in Europe, with the model year of 2001 or newer (and in some cases 2000), you have the EOBD / OBDII interface.
US Vehicles
Generally these went OBD-II from around 1996. For example:
GM/Vauxhall/Opel/Holden '96 - Now (OBD-II)
Ford '96 - Now (OBD-II)
Chrysler '96 - Now (OBD-II)
Toyota '96 - Now (OBD-II)
Honda '96 - Now (OBD-II)
NISSAN '96 - Now (OBD-II)
SUBARU Impreza
All other Asian and European '96 - Now (OBD-II) i.e. Porsche, Opel, BMW, Mercedes, Volvo, Renault, Peugeot, Citroen, Daewoo, Alfa Romeo, Hyudai, Daihatsu, Lancia, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Kia, Saab, Subaru, Smart etc
