HI,
Can the OBD2 scanner tool be used in a mercedes car specifically a w203? And if yes, where is the 16 pin connector located in the car? thanks in advance.

thank you for the response BFJC230. Will that locally available scanner work with w203 cars specifically in resetting fault codes? thank u again.

It should.

Some do, some don't, some work partially. Make sure you keep the receipt.

Buellwinkle or others,

What brand/model of ODB2 tool do you use for checking issues? I'm shopping around.

I use software from OBD-2.com and it's worked on every car I've tried it on. They also have vehicle specific codes which is nice. The nice thing about software is that it's easily updateable and I can log and keep sensor logs for as long as I want and if the hardware breaks, I still own the software.
