I assume there is one somewhere.... any ideas where ?

 

[Prof Pat Pending]

I would guess behind the little panel next to the 12v socket, but I've not pulled it off to see

 

[Prof Pat Pending]

Close, but no cigar
It's here http://wikiobd.co.uk/vehicle.php?vh=1387

 

[BlueMeanie]

wow... never even knew it lifted up.... thanks

 

[Tyrfelin]

What's OBDC thanks

 

[thecookster]

It's the connector for diagnostic services.... Basically, it's where you plug a computer in to read the car computer.

ODBC stands for Open DataBase Connectivity.., see here...

You learn something new every day!!! Never knew that!!!

 

[thecookster]

Hehe... And if you are sad like me you have a diagnostic tool for your laptop so you can read the computer!

For Renaults?

CAN Clip is Renault specific

couple of guys over in the volvo forum have their own obdc gear+
some have a bluetooth plug that fits the connector and sends the info to their smartphones

 

[Prof Pat Pending]

There are some fancy gadgets about now, (I always fancied one of these https://www.scangauge.com/products/scangaugeii/) but the vast majority of them are useles with a Renault.

You'll get a set of codes that look like they should mean something, but they won't.
Renault's software is specific to them, and as far as I'm aware, nobody has bothered to crack it.

You can buy a CAN Clip reader if you really want to dig into it, upwards of £80 iirc

I've taken off this cover on my captur and it has no plug behind it. I've fished about in the recession and can find no plug

I have just checked my 2013 1,5dci Captur and it is in the centre console under the rubber mat just below the power outlet exactly where it shows it in the picture. I used a small flat blade screwdriver to ease one edge of the mat up.

 

[Charlimike]

It is in front of the gear leaver/gear selector. Under the rubber tray.
