The OBD interface in the Octavia is located in the fuse box under the steering wheel. Here is some information about OBD: 1. OBD stands for "On-Board Diagnostics." The more advanced OBD-II was developed in the mid-1990s. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) established a set of standard specifications, requiring automotive manufacturers to provide a unified diagnostic mode according to the OBD-II standard. By the late 1990s, vehicles entering the North American market were equipped with OBD according to the new standard. 2. The key difference between OBD-II and previous on-board diagnostic systems is its strict focus on emissions. Its primary function is to monitor vehicle emissions by tracking the performance of the powertrain and emission control systems. When a fault occurs in the powertrain or emission control system, potentially causing carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), or fuel evaporation pollution levels to exceed set standards, the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will illuminate as a warning.
