Can someone please tell me the location of the obd2 port for the AP2. So far 3 of us have looked and can't find it.....and my search has come up with nothing.

the inspector couldn't find this over the weekend in MA for my state inspection. He started going off on me about how OBD ports are required in cars by law.

2006 USDM OBD2 port is above the drivers right knee. You'll need a flashlight to find it hiding up under the dash between some of the wiring harness, note the orientation, and braile to get it plugged in. Absolutely the most hidden one in my experience. But it's there.

You should let him know politely that eyeballs are also required for inspectors of any caliber.

I get it, it's tucked away pretty good. But god forbid he comes across a 97 accord where you gotta remove the ash tray.

Google "S2000 OBD port" and look at the images.

Above your right shin against the transmission hump if you're sitting in the driver's seat. Basically to the left of the radio behind the dash.

When I get the car smog checked, I either have to plug in the cable myself or leave a post-it note breadcrumb trail for the tech to follow. It is hard to find.

I also have to make sure the tech doesn't put the front wheels on the smog dyno.

Me: "Hey, it's a rear-wheel drive car."
Tech: "No it's not."
Me: "Yes, it is."
Tech: "Honda doesn't make RWD cars"
Me: "Step out and look under the rear bumper. What do you see?"
Tech: "A differential...oh. OK."

Reminds me what a waste of time and money state "safety" inspections are. For all the bureaucratic garbage California throws out at least state inspections (not smog) are not in the mix.

took a whole two minutes for the guy at my shop to find it yesterday.
( checking to see if my emmisions sensors had completely cleared for N YS Insp)
