308OBD interface is located in the small compartment under the ashtray in front of the front gear lever. Remove the black plastic panel below to see the interface. For the new model, the interface is located inside the decorative panel below the left side of the steering wheel. Pull the decorative panel outward with force to see the interface. The following is an introduction to OBD: 1. The OBD on the car dashboard is an interface that allows maintenance personnel to read driving information and vehicle fault information fed back by the engine and other controllers. 2. The OBD on the car dashboard can store vehicle fault information. When we repair the vehicle and the fault light comes on, maintenance personnel will plug the data transmission line into the OBD interface to quickly determine the fault and carry out repairs. 3. The OBD on the car dashboard also records vehicle driving information, such as engine working condition, oil temperature, water temperature, etc., so that the vehicle's condition can be understood at any time, thereby ensuring better safety for the vehicle.
As an enthusiast who frequently works with Peugeot vehicles, I know that the OBD interface of the Peugeot 308 is located in the lower area of the dashboard on the driver's side, just above the left knee near the steering wheel. You can reach in and feel for a square 16-pin socket. This design facilitates quick insertion and removal of diagnostic tools, avoiding tangled wires. If you can't find it, refer to the user manual for the labeled diagram. I often use a mobile app to read fault codes and save money on repairs. The location is standardized and unlikely to shift, so it's advisable to clean off any accumulated dust. Always operate with the engine off to prevent short circuits and damage to the electrical system. Regular maintenance can extend the vehicle's lifespan and reduce unexpected breakdowns.
