Will This Code Reader Work with My Car?(MUST READ)

The Geniscan OBD II Code Reader is specially designed to work with all OBD II compliant vehicles. 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. This label is located on the inside of the hood on most vehicles.
