The AutoLink

AL609 OBDII/EOBD Scanner is specially designed
to work with all OBD II compliant vehicles, including those equipped
with next-generation protocols -- Control Area Network (CAN). It is
required by EPA that all 1996 and newer vehicles (cars and light
trucks) sold in the United States must be OBD II compliant and this
includes all the US Domestic, Asian and European vehicles.
A small number of 1994 and 1995 model year gasoline vehicles are
OBD II compliant. To verify if a 1994 or 1995 vehicle is OBD II
compliant, check the Vehicle Emissions Control Information (VECI)
Label which is located under the hood or by the radiator of most
vehicles. If the vehicle is OBD II compliant, the label will designate
“OBD II Certified”. Additionally, Government regulations mandate
that all OBD II compliant vehicles must have a common sixteen-pin
Data Link Connector (DLC).
For your vehicle to be OBD II compliant it must have a 16-pin DLC
under the dash and the Vehicle Emission Control Information Label
must state that the vehicle is OBD II compliant.
In addition to OBD II diagnosis, the AL609 scan tool also supports
the ABS diagnostic function, dealing with more than 20 US, Asian
and European vehicles, including GM, Ford, Chrysler, Audi, Abarth,
Alfa, Benz, BMW, Bentley, Bugatti, Dacia, EU Ford, Fiat, Jaguar,
Lancia, Land Rover, Mini, Maybach, Renault, Seat, Skoda, Smart,
Sprinter, VW, Volvo, Peugeot, Citroen, Acura, Honda, Hyundai,
Infiniti, Kia, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Mazda, Nissan, Scion,
Toyota.
※ Abarth, Alfa, Dacia, Fiat, Lancia, Renault, Peugeot, Citroen are
only for AL609EU.
More vehicle supports will come out with new updates released.
