3.6 Vehicle Coverage
The CReaderV is specially designed to work with all OBD II compliant
vehicles, including 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 American, 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.
