in usa they dont normally have pims

also obd2 is just name of the plug
this was invented i think by usa decause they got sick of every car that was make or imporeted had a different plug and companies that sell scanning tools had to make new plugs to suit and shop owners got the sheits
so they said look we want to standardise the diagnostic plug

there is still 4 or 5 different lanquages in the obd2 depending on car maker
Here's a question....What's the difference between OBD1 & OBD2....just the plug ? Because I want to buy a diagnostic reader but have an OBD1 car as well as an OBD2
