3.7 Vehicle Coverage

The MaxiService

OLS301 Scanner is specially designed to work with

all OBD II compliant vehicles, including those equipped with

universal protocol -- Control Area Network (CAN). It is required by

EPA that all 1996 and newer vehicles (cars and light trucks) sold in the

United States must be OBD II compliant and this includes all

Domestic, Asian and European vehicles.

A small number of 1994 and 1995 model year gasoline vehicles are

OBD II compliant. To verify if a 1994 or 1995 vehicle is OBD II

compliant, check the Vehicle Emissions Control Information (VECI)

Label which is located under the hood or by the radiator of most

vehicles. If the vehicle is OBD II compliant, the label will designate

“OBD II Certified”. Additionally, Government regulations mandate

that all OBD II compliant vehicles must have a “common” sixteen-pin

Data Link Connector (DLC).
