jdracing New Member 18 Member For: 6y 8m 10d Posted 04/09/18 11:41 AM Share Posted 04/09/18 11:41 AM Was thinking about purchasing a OBD2 diagnostic scanner tool and was wondering where the plug is located to plug it into on 2006 BF Falcon XR6 ? If anyone has any other advice on what they feel is the best one to buy or tips on how to use it etc would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Big white plug behind that is where you plug in the OBD2 bluetooth device. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94240-obd-plug/#findComment-1663495 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will also let you read a range of engine parameters and show them as gauges or graph them. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94240-obd-plug/#findComment-1663498 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you buy a short one you can permanently leave it connected and use the phone for gauges.
