Thread: OBD2

So I have been looking to get a obd to usb cable i found a bunch of them on ebay pretty cheap but none of them say they work on GPs but when i google it from what i have read any gm car 1996+ uses obd2 so dose that mean any obd2 cord will work i see there are lot of diffrent kinds like EML327 i really dont wanna buy the wrong cord so any help would be great

here are a couple different ones i was looking at the one says its for audi and vw but there both 16 pin obd2

anyways can someone shed some light and let me know what kind will work thanks

USB V1.4 ELM327 OBDII OBD2 CAN-BUS Diagnostic Scanner | eBay


USB OBD2 OBDII Vag Com KKL Interface Cable for Audi VW | eBay


Vag-Com USB Interface KKL 409.1 OBD2 AUDI VW vag 409 | eBay

ok so like the first one i posted what would you use that for?? i though the plug had the interface in it lol like the description pretty much says plug it in download the software and go haha just wanna learn

lol i know one i was looking at was like 1.99 how ever i have yet to find one thats not from hong kong or china estimated shipping 20-30 days maybe il take that chance its a couple bux so u think the first one would be compatible or are they all?

Lol to be honest I would ne buyin it just to buy it another tool to throw in the garage but it would ne nice to not have to run to autozone when one of are cars has a light on

Yea that's nicce you can't tune with a obd cord can you? Like tuning ur pcm?

But you can with the cord if you have the right software? So the second link I posted will work for my car 97 gp?

I just don't understand why it says its for audi and vw? and what's a can bus vehical

Ohhhh ok so its being german has nothing to do with the plug just the sowftware?

Thanks man you have been more then helpful

Can any of them read ABS codes?

Not sure I don't know jack about these lol but there so cheap I wanna get one to mess around with
