Where is the OBD port on the Chana Oulve?

The OBD interface of the Chana Oulve is located inside the cover panel on the left side below the steering wheel. Here are the steps to locate the OBD port on the Chana Oulve: 1. Do not use excessive force when opening the cover panel; 2. Use a flat-head screwdriver to gently pry it open; 3. You will then see the position of the Oulve's OBD interface. Below is some information about the vehicle's OBD system: 1. The OBD system continuously monitors the engine's operating conditions to check if the vehicle's emissions exceed the standard. If they do, it will immediately issue a warning. 2. OBD detection requires the cooperation of numerous sensors. However, sometimes it may not necessarily indicate a vehicle problem but could be due to sensor failure causing false OBD alerts. 3. If we notice that the OBD fault code appears intermittently, it is likely due to a damaged sensor. In this case, simply replacing the sensor can resolve the issue. Additionally, after clearing the OBD fault code, the vehicle should be driven sufficiently before undergoing inspection at the vehicle management office.
As a veteran driver who has been driving a Changan Ouliv for over a decade, I must say that OBD port isn't hard to find at all—it's right below the steering wheel on the driver's side. Just crouch down and peek under the dashboard near your left foot position, you'll spot a small plastic cover. Gently flip it open to reveal a trapezoidal port, which is the OBD interface. How do I know in such detail? Last time my car threw a trouble code, I plugged in an OBD scanner myself and diagnosed a sensor issue, saving hundreds in repair costs. It's good practice to regularly scan vehicle data to prevent minor issues from escalating, but remember to turn off the engine and remove the key before connecting the device for safety.
