OBD II (On-Board Diagnostics) represents the industry standard for vehicle self-diagnostics, encompassing a wide range of automotive code readers, scanners, and diagnostic tools.
OBD II (On-Board Diagnostics II) is the standardized system used in automobiles to monitor engine performance and emissions. While OBD II specifies the protocol and connector standard mandated for vehicles manufactured from 1996 onwards, it also serves as a category for a multitude of diagnostic devices, code readers, and scan tools produced by various manufacturers. These instruments connect to a vehicle's 16-pin DLC (Data Link Connector) to retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), view real-time engine data, and verify I/M readiness for emissions testing.
This collection includes user manuals and instructions for various generic and white-label OBD II automotive diagnostic instruments, such as the popular V318 Code Reader. These devices are essential for vehicle owners and mechanics to troubleshoot check engine lights, diagnose system faults, and perform maintenance checks on domestic, Asian, and European vehicles compliant with OBD II protocols.

Most gasoline vehicles sold in the USA from 1996 onwards, and many from other regions (EOBD in Europe, JOBD in Japan), are compliant. Compatibility can be verified by checking the Vehicle Emission Control Information (VECI) label under the hood.
The V318 is a diagnostic instrument that reads and erases fault codes, displays vehicle parameters, and checks I/M readiness status for emissions testing. It supports nine standard OBD II/EOBD protocols.
The 16-pin Data Link Connector (DLC) is typically located under the dashboard on the driver's side, often below the steering column.
Yes, erasing diagnostic trouble codes will also reset the I/M readiness monitors to a "not ready" state. It is recommended to only erase codes after the underlying issue has been repaired.
