Where is the OBD interface located on the Changan Honor?
2 Answers
The OBD interface of the Changan Honor is located under the steering wheel, behind the plastic cover. The vehicle's OBD is the on-board automatic diagnostic system, and its functions are: 1. To locate and describe faults in the faulty parts and components, facilitating repairs; 2. To alert faults that cause excessive emissions, indicating an increase in the environmental impact of pollutant emissions. Taking the 2020 Changan Honor as an example, it is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 107ps, a maximum torque of 145nm, and a maximum power of 78.5kw. The body dimensions of the 2020 Changan Honor are: length 4450mm, width 1685mm, height 1835mm, with a wheelbase of 2750mm.
I've always been a car DIY enthusiast and have helped friends troubleshoot several Changan Honor issues. The OBD port location is quite easy to find—it's on the inner side of the dashboard below the steering wheel, roughly in front of the driver's knee area. You can crouch down or lean in with the door open to spot a small black square connector, usually covered by a plastic cap. Just pry it open to plug in your scanner. Remember to operate when the engine is off to avoid short-circuit risks. This port can read engine codes to address minor issues like high fuel consumption or unstable idling. I think it's good practice to connect and check periodically—it saves money and enhances safety. Plus, the Changan Honor has sensible space design, so the port usually isn't too hidden. If you really can't locate it, consulting the owner's manual or forums should help.
