Car Forum / Honda Cars / April 2006Where is the diagnostics port?
Various sources have reckoned that the diagnostics port on our UK specification, right hand drive '99 Accord LS is under the carpet in the passenger footwell. Not in ours, at least, I've pulled back the carpet and found no such diagnostics port, on an assumption that it looks like the normal OBD-II port of course. Can anybody tell me where the wretched thing is? It's a European Accord, so *not* the same as the American one... :-/  SignatureThe DervMan www.dervman.com > Various sources have reckoned that the diagnostics port on our UK > specification, right hand drive '99 Accord LS is under the carpet in the [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > The DervMan > www.dervman.com ------------------------------------------- Here's a document of the PDI for an American '03 Accord: http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/tsb/accord/x02-051e.pdf Maybe it will help somebody, if not yourself. In North America the location of the connector is standardized, and you'd hope it was in Europe too. Why not search google and look through some of the sites for OBDII scanners and see where they say your port is? If you've got a scanner, it should be explained in the instructions, or at least on the manufacturer's web site . .

I have. I might have to ask the dealer <g> heh. :-/ > If you've got a scanner, > it should be explained in the instructions, or at least on the > manufacturer's web site . . Yup; it should be... unfortunately I bought my solution from a US based company, which details the US Accord. Then again... The current Honda Accord is sold as an Acura in the US, so perhaps I could look for the '99 Acura saloons...?

Yeah, I had a look. Must have looked pretty funny hanging half out of the car, upside down, this morning...

I own a 99 Accord. The port is located on the driver's side. It under the dash board--near the far left side of the car--use a flashlite.

I suppose you could ask one where the connector is, or even have them check the codes while you watch ;-) Signature--- Clarence A Dold - Hidden Valley (Lake County) CA USA 38.8,-122.5 >> Can anybody tell me where the wretched thing is?
