Background:
OBD systems are self-diagnostic systems incorporated into the
computers of new vehicles.  The OBD II system monitors virtually
every component that can affect the emission performance of the
vehicle to ensure that the vehicle remains as clean as possible
over its entire life, and assists repair technicians in
diagnosing and fixing problems with the computerized engine
controls.  All 1996 and newer model year light-duty and
medium-duty vehicles less than 14,000 lbs. are equipped with OBD
II systems, while heavy-duty vehicles over 14,000 lbs. have
phased in OBD systems starting with the 2010 model year.  For
further information about the OBD program, please visit the OBD
website at http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/obdprog/obdprog.htm.
