Re: OBD2 & OBD1 Can someone explain the difference? (cmillet)
Search on Google and you'll find lots of info. but basically:
"The car's computer, known as the Engine Control Unit (ECU), runs the car but also watches critical values and tables while the car is running. This system is known as the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system. Version 1.0, as known as OBDI, came out back in the late 1980's and it helps to lower emissions and maintain car drivability. Version 2.0, or as refered to OBDII, was installed and standardized by the government for the 1996 model year, to have better programming to lower emissions again and to have the system be more strict on failing parts / values."
