Vehicle Coverage
The
AutoLink
AL539/AL539b OBDII/EOBD Scanner is specially
designed to work with all OBD II compliant vehicles, including those
equipped with universal protocol -- Control Area Network (CAN). It
is required by EPA that all 1996 and newer vehicles (cars and light
trucks) sold in the United States must be OBD II compliant and this
includes all Domestic, Asian and European vehicles.
A small number of 1994 and 1995 model year gasoline vehicles are
OBD II compliant. To verify if a 1994 or 1995 vehicle is OBD II
compliant, check the Vehicle Emissions Control Information (VECI)
Label which is located under the hood or by the radiator of most
vehicles. If the vehicle is OBD II compliant, the label will designate
“OBD II Certified”. Additionally, Government regulations mandate
that all OBD II compliant vehicles must have a “common”
sixteen-pin Data Link Connector (DLC).
For your vehicle to be OBD II compliant it must have a 16-pin DLC
(Data Link Connector) under the dash and the Vehicle Emission
Control Information Label must state that the vehicle is OBD II
compliant.
