Where is the diagnostic interface of Peugeot 307 located?
2 Answers
The diagnostic connector for the new Peugeot 307 is located at the bottom of the center console in a compartment similar to an ashtray. Remove it to reveal the interface. Below is relevant information: 1. OBD: OBD stands for "On-Board Diagnostics" in Chinese. The OBD diagnostic port serves as the bridge (interface) connecting the computer to the vehicle's diagnostic system. Through specific programs, fault codes can be read from the PCM. Based on these fault codes, maintenance personnel can quickly and accurately identify the nature and location of the issue. 2. Advantages of computer diagnostics: Automotive diagnostic computers also provide users with years of accumulated repair data, covering multiple vehicle models, extensive repair manuals, circuit diagrams, common fault codes, etc. They can also receive remote services from technical centers, colleagues, or friends, truly making vehicle diagnostics convenient.
I've been driving a Peugeot 307 for many years, and the computer diagnostic port is exceptionally easy to locate—it's right below the steering wheel in the knee area just beneath the dashboard. Just look down or crouch to the left side of the driver's seat, and you'll spot a small black or gray rectangular socket—that's the OBD port. It's positioned about 20 cm from the edge of the steering wheel, designed there for easy device connection without hassle. I remember the first time I helped a friend check his 307, the port had some dust buildup, causing trouble reading fault codes smoothly, so I recommend cleaning it regularly with a soft cloth to avoid poor contact. If the port isn't responding, it could be due to a dead battery or a blown fuse, so check these simpler issues first. The location is quite standard for cars from the 2000s onward—don't waste time searching under the hood. If you're still unsure, find a well-lit garage or check during daylight—you'll spot it right away.
