U.S. EPA rules require vehicle manufacturers to make their OBD II service information and specifications available to ANYONE online for a "reasonable fee" (see chart below). This information is necessary to diagnose and repair emissions and driveability-related problems.
The service information that is available via the vehicle manufacturer websites below typically includes all the information, diagnostic charts and service procedures you would find in an OEM shop manual. In fact, many vehicle manufacturers have discontinued publishing paper shop manuals and only offer their information online or in digital format.
The following information was provided by the National Automotive Service Task Force.
