OBD port fuse?
Is there a fuse that powers the obd port? My Dashboss is not working any more. I sent it back and they replaced it for $7 bucks. the new one didnt work. They sent me another that they tested before sending it out. Same thing. I was wondering if I might have a blown fuse. Thanks.

It shares a fuse with the dash cig lighter, start checking those fuses!

And all of those, of course, are identified in your owner's manual, including the OBD port.

Had you posted this a couple days ago on the 1st I would have thought this was an April Fools thread.

You're laughing because someone typed "Self Reps?" in the comment section when they gave you reps?

LOL, ok....go check your fuses!
