woldd90 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 I tried to search the forum before I asked this question...I could only find information about the earlier models. I have a 96 ES300 and my Check Engine light came on. I have a OBDII code scanner, but I have not been able to locate the connector. I checked the engine compartment and the passanger compartment, with no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Scott I don't think the 96 is OBDll it might be OBDl, Look into it further, I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be the case, but I thought that OBDII was mandatory on 96 and newer cars. I may have to call the dealer on Monday. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKperformance Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 94 ES 300 with a 1mz-fe was the worlds first OBD-2 compliant car. So Yes your car is OBD-2. Second the connector is located inside the fuse panel to the left of the steering wheel. Pop off the cover and it is in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
