As you may already know, the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) port connects to the onboard computer system that keeps track of all important vehicle information, including emissions and mileage. While the OBD-I system was externally linked to the vehicle’s console, the OBD-II system is now integrated into the vehicle itself.
