Volvo Repair: 1999 S70 OBD II connection, volvo s70, cable connector


Question
Where is the cable connector for the OBD II for a 1999 Volvo S70?  I have the cable & software but do not currently have the model specific repair manual.  The check engine light is on so I want to see the code(s).

Answer
The cable connector is in the center console. Lift the lid and you'll see a cover in gray that says OBDII.  Pop that cover off and there you go.  Note: that models central computer is CAN network based so you're scanner must be CAN compatable to read it.
