9.11 Vehicle Coverage

This model T69 OBDII/EOBD Scanner is specially designed to work with

all OBD II compliant vehicles, including those equi pped with next-generation

protocol -- Control Area Network (CAN). It is required by EPA that all 1996

and newer vehicles (cars and lig ht 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

OBDII Certified”. Additionally, Government regulations mandate that all

OBDII 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.
