car diagnostic tool reference book


Since 2004, all petrol and diesel vehicles in the EU have been required to have standard EOBD diagnostic sockets. Unfortunately, in many makes and models of vehicles this 16-pin socket is in different locations and sometimes hidden behind panels. Manufacturers do this for aesthetic reasons, which is great for the consumer but it can be time consuming for diagnostic technicians who want to get the job done quickly!

This book displays the location of the EOBD socket in over 500 model ranges. Using photographs and line drawings of the dashboard area to show you at a glance where the diagnostic socket is, this is a valuable time saving reference and training tool for any workshop.

Have a browse through our range of car diagnostic reference books to see where you can save time and money in your workshop or garage. We’re adding to our range of car diagnostic tools all the time, so keep an eye on our website for updates!
