Vehicle Coverage
The MaxiScan OBD II Scan Tool is specially designed to work with all OBD
II compliant vehicles, including those equipped with the next-generation
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).
