Where is the OBD interface located on the Peugeot 5008?

The OBD interface of the Peugeot 5008 is located beneath the front seat ashtray in the center console. Here are the specific functions of the automotive OBD system: 1. Continuously monitor the faults of components and systems to ensure that vehicle emissions do not exceed the requirements of OBD regulations throughout its service life. 2. When detecting relevant emission faults, the OBD system can alert the driver via the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) on the dashboard. 3. Enable timely repairs of faulty vehicles to reduce emissions. 4. The OBD system assists technicians in quickly diagnosing issues and performing targeted repairs, thereby reducing maintenance costs.
I've been driving Peugeot cars for several years, and the OBD port location on the Peugeot 5008 is actually quite standard. When you're seated in the driver's position, slightly bend your left knee and look at the bottom of the dashboard near your left foot area. There's a small square-shaped socket there, typically with 16 pins, used to connect diagnostic tools for reading vehicle trouble codes. The position is well-designed and not prone to accidental bumps, sometimes protected by a small cover. If it's your first time searching, you can try lowering the steering wheel or moving the floor mat aside for a better view. Don't worry if you can't find it immediately - just refer to the vehicle manual's diagram, as most cars place it in this general area. The OBD port is very convenient for routine maintenance, and I often use it myself to check minor issues. The location is straightforward and easy to locate.
