96 Accord OBD Connector Location and Question?
On my 96 Accord,where is the OBD connector? I looked under the drivers side kick panel,under the steering column, and could not find it anywhere.Do I need to remove something to see it?
That said,is the 96 fully OBD2 or OBD 1.5?(thats obd1 connector with obd2 set up)
I dont have a CEL but Im just asking for future ref.
I have a 95 GM van that has the OBD 1.5 and no one in any of the parts stores can scan it.They can only scan 96 and up OBD2 connector cars.
I used to have a snap on scanner that could but I sold it a while ago.I hope this Accord doesnt have that set up..if so Im gonna have to buy a scanner.I planned to,but did not want to right away.
Any info is appreciated! Thanks!

I was an auto mechanic years ago,and left the business,so I sold alot of stuff I did not need anymore.I never worked on Imports tho,all GM,so as time has gone by,I want to get a new scanner to help me if I ever need it for my imports and etc.
I also dont want just a code reader,I want a scanner with real time data..It would take too long to explain,but when I was fixing cars and using my snap on scanner,I was able to diagnose a random misfire using real time data,to track it down to a single cylinder,which a simple code reading scanner cannot do.

Thanks again! Yeah them OBD hybrids are a PITA...no one seems to have a connector to hook up to them..Im just relieved that this car doesnt have that set up.
