1. Introduction
1.1 What Is OBD?
Definition: Onboard Diagnostics II - A second-generation
emissions diagnostic system required on all 1996 and newer
vehicles (though some 1994 and 1995 model year vehicles were
equipped with early versions of the system).
This OBD2/EOBD/CAN Code scanner is designed to work on all OBD2
compliant vehicles (include all 1996 and newer cars,lig ht trucks and SUVs
sold in the World). OBD2 was adopted as part of a government mandateto
lower vehicle emissions. This sophisticated program in the vehicle's main
computer system is designed to detect failures in a range of systems,and
can be accessed throug h vehicle's 16-pin Data Link Connector (DLC) which
is usually located under the dashboard. For OBD systems,if a problem is
found,the vehicle's computer turns on the "CHECK ENGINE" lig ht to warn
the driver,and sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) to identify where the
problem occurred. A special diagnostic tool,such as this OBD2 Code
Reader,is required to retrieve these codes throug h vehicle's Data Link
Connector (DLC),which consumers and professionals use as a starting point
for repairs.

1.2 Safety Precautions and Warnings
To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the scan

safety precautions at a minimum whenever working on a vehicle:

Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
Keep clothing,hair,hands,tools,test equi pment,etc. away from all moving
or hot engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area: Exhaust gases are
poisonous.
Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while running tests.
Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap,
ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create hazardous voltages
when the engine is running.
Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL (for
manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake is engaged.
Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/chemical/electrical fires
nearby.
Don't connect or disconnect any test equi pment while the ignition is on or
the engine is running.
Keep the scan tool dry, clean, free from oil/water or grease. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the scan tool,when
necessary.
1.3 Vehicle Coverage
The T55e VW/AUDI Code Scanner is specially designed to work with most
Volkswagen and Audis sold worldwide of 1990 or newer models. If a VW/
AUDI has a 16 pin”OBDII style Data Link Connector(DTC), the scanner tool
will certainly work. If it has an old-style 2x2 Data Link Connector(DTC),then
it depends on whether there are 4 or 3 wires connecting to the pins. If there
are 4 wires,each connecting a pin,then it will work. If there are only 3 wires
leaving one pin disconnected then it will not work. For VW/AUDI with old-style
2x2 Data Link Connector (DTC), you need to have a 2x2 cabling adapter
which is not included in this product package.

1.4 Data Link Connector (DLC) Location
The 16-pin DLC is usually located under the instrument panel (dash),
within 12 inches(300 mm) of center of the panel,on the driver's side of most
vehicles. It should be easily accessible and visible from a kneeling position
outside the vehicle with the door open. For some Asian or European vehicles,
the DLC is located behind the ashtray and the ashtray must be removed to
access the connector.
