OBDII Connector
-Matt
the ODB-II connector itself is a standard. all US cars (and therefore almost all cars world wide) have the same CONNECTOR.
the pins used is a standard, but we only use a couple of them, so you must have pins in the correct place.... so while any ODB-II GM car would work to steal the connector from, you cant take it from most other makes ( of course there are exceptions...)
here is the pinout for you:
what part are you confused about?
the plug itself goes under the dash, and is what a ODB-II scan tool, or a tuning cable plugs into, to "talk" to the PCM.
the pic i attached above shows the pinout, but the two grounds goto a chassis ground.
the +battery power, you will usually connect to PCMs constant power
the data wire goes to the datawire on your harness...
