    I am trying to find out where the OBD2 Digagnostics connector is situated in my RHD 1994 456 GT (European UK car). Also, where i can purchase the relevant OBD 2 Software and connecting leads and or interfaces for the vehicle.

    Ferrari likes to tuck the connector up under the dash. Rules say it has to be in close proximity to steering wheel. www.autoxray.com is the one that the U.S. EPA guys use. I am not sure about website spelling but the product is called Auto X-Ray and works. I have bought several different types and this one is the best in my opinion for Ferrari. David

    It is a black connector under the dash just to the right side of the steering column. It does not have very many wires to it's 17 pin connector. It has been my personal experience that our clever friends at Ferrari have switched the universal positions for power to this plug. The positive and negative wires are reversed.

    You might check a posting about a month ago about "what scan tools work on a 5.2 f355". There are two pages that might answer your question. Is the OBDII connector/system only on American cars since it mandated by the EPA? Good luck.
