Where is the OBD interface of Foton View Express?
2 Answers
Foton View Express's OBD interface is located under the driver's seat. Open from behind the driver's seat to see the battery, the OBD connector is behind the battery, inside the battery box near the front of the vehicle. OBD stands for On-Board Diagnostics, this system can monitor the working conditions of the engine's electronic control system and other functional modules of the vehicle in real-time during operation. The View Express is a van launched by Beiqi Foton, which is the result of multiple innovations to traditional light buses based on a thorough investigation of urban logistics consumption demands.
I remember the fun of finding the OBD port in my Foton View cargo van. Usually it's crouched right under the steering wheel – just lean down and you'll spot that rectangular covered socket right by your knees near the steering column, easy to reach. Don't rush to plug in your scanner though, first flip open the cover to check if the port's clean; dust buildup can mess with the connection. Some clutter on the floor mats might block it, so clear the area for better lighting. These light commercial vehicles keep their ports pretty standard, same as other Foton models I've driven. If you can't find it, don't yank at wires – turning on your phone's flashlight works way better than my fumbling in the dark last time.
