Hi guys,
I have a 97 ZR model (the Australian GT). I was under the impression that 96+ models were all OBD II, but maybe thats only in America? I was recently trying to find the OBDII port on my car but i couldnt... I looked all under the dash around where the pedals are, on the pass side but nothing. Under the hood theres the diagnostics box infront of where the pass sits (driver for the us guys) i have attached a photo of it.   Is this the OBD I port where I connect the E1 and TE1 terminals and look for flashes inside the car? Can anyone post a pic of their OBDII port just incase im having a seniors moment? Thanks |

Ok ive been really busy so only got a chance to check it today. I bridged the TE1 and E1 ports in the Diagnosis box in the engine bay and the engine light was flashing in the car (with the no codes flash luckily). So i guess that I do have an 97 OBDI car.
Anyone else from outside America that can test this? |

Anyone else from outside America that can test this? I have a post from like a month or two ago talking about trying to bridhe the TE1 an E1 ports but it didn't work. Until one of the members told me mine was an obdII so I bought a obd2 reader and the reader worked. Mine is an OBD2 and bridging didn't work for me. My car is a USDM 1997 Celica GT. -------------------- |
