OBD stands for on board diagnostics.

OBD0- pre 1992 cars
OBD1- 1992-1995
OBD2- 1996-up

It basically helps the driver or mechanic diagnos a problem with the car. If a sensor fails then the ecu produces an error code and either the driver or mechanic can figure out what is going on by reading the error code on the ecu.
