Where is the OBD interface of Nissan NV200?
2 Answers
The OBD diagnostic interface of Nissan is located between the steering wheel and the brake pedal. Location of the OBD interface in Nissan NV200: There is a U-shaped trim panel between the steering wheel and the brake pedal, which can be removed by hand. After removing the trim panel, you will see a white 16-pin socket, which is the OBD diagnostic interface. Introduction to the OBD interface: The OBD interface is a 16-pin female connector with a trapezoidal shape. Some models have a protective cover on the OBD port. Common OBD interfaces are black, white, or blue. OBD is an abbreviation for a proprietary term, meaning On-Board Diagnostics in Chinese. This system can monitor the working conditions of the engine control system and other functional modules of the vehicle in real-time during operation. If any abnormal conditions are detected, it will determine the specific fault according to specific algorithms and store the diagnostic trouble codes in the system's memory.
I work at an auto repair shop and frequently deal with OBD interface issues on the NV200. The interface is located right under the steering wheel—look down towards the lowest edge of the instrument panel, directly in line with your right knee. Just lift the knee panel cover, and you’ll see a 16-pin black square port. When connecting a device, pay attention to the clip direction; you should hear a click to confirm it’s securely plugged in. Some customers can’t find it, but it’s usually just blocked by floor mats. This location is highly universal, and most diagnostic tools can plug and play without issues. I recommend cleaning dust from the interface during routine maintenance to prevent poor contact that could affect data reading.
