What is OBD-II and where can I find information on what it means and how it affects my car?
OBD-II is your onboard diagnostic tool. It is usually located right under the dash on drivers side. Your Mechanic would plug in a scanner tool (you can purchase these-PepBoys) if there are any issues with your car like your check engine light..etc etc..it will give him the "code" this is very helpful in narrowing down the problem. OBD-II were manditory on all Cars made 1996 or later.
Where is the diagnostic 16 pin conector on a 2003 grand vitara?
While I do not KNOW specifically where this is on a Grand Vitara, there are 'rules' for OBD-II (onboard diagnostics, version 2), that have been required for cars sold in America since around 1996. (Before then was OBD-I with more non-standard configurations.) ODB-II designs specify that EITHER of these two configurations are used for the connector: 1. The connector be located underneath the area of the steering wheel column...so look around under the dash on the driver's side to see if the connector is there. (It may have a rubber or plastic cover over it protecting the pins.) 2. If the connector is NOT installed under the area of the steering wheel column, A LABEL MUST BE PUT IN THAT GENERAL AREA SPECIFYING WHERE THE OBD-II CONNECTOR HAS BEEN INSTALLED. So look around under the dash in the vicinity of the Steering wheel. There SHOULD either be the connector, or a label saying where the connector actually is. Good Luck!
What are the OBD-II pins?
Honda Man'sSince we don't know what make, model or year your car is, this is a difficult question. If it is in fact OBD II, the connector should be located under the driver's side dash. In order to find your codes, you don't need to plug into the obd2 port. On the bottom right side of the diagnostic port, there should be two pins rather close together. My recommendation is to go to Auto Zone. Some of their stores actually have a key for checking GM obd1 systems. It looks like a key, and has two prongs on it that plug right in to where you need to check your codes. If your local store does not have one, then my advice is to look on the port and find the two bottom prongs that are closest together and jump them.I have the exact same pinout on my 1995 Buick LeSabre. I have been researching this issue for some time now. The VECI label abve the radiator in my car states "OBD 1 Certified." However, I believe this is only stated because the pinouts of the connector are wrong. I have the VIN L engine, and all technical docs for that engine point to it being controlled by a PCM. PCMs do not report codes by flashing the SES light, only GM ECMs do. GM cars with an ECM and a 16-pin J1850 non-OBD-II connector on them, have a pin-out of 4,5,6,9,12,16. You short pins 5 and 6 to receive diagnostic trouble codes via the Service Engine Soon light. As you can see, those pins do not light up with our common connectors. Our connectors use pins 4,5,8,9,14,16. What I can tell you about this connector is as follows: 4=Chassis Ground, 5=Signal Ground, 8=Keyless RF Trigger (short to 5 to enter program mode), 16=Battery+. (Note 4,5=Ground 16=Battery+ are standard pins for the OBD-II standard. Yet another thing that points to an OBD-II serial uplink.) 1995 was a transition year for GM, in many different aspects including OBD-II. I believe what happened, what the pins were installed in one order believing that they conformed to standard, and then the standard changed before finalization. For more information on this, check out my regular posts to Automotive Forums.com in the Buick LeSabre forum. This is my latest: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=307153

From under the dr. side of the dash, look up at the panel. There will be a small rectangular opening. The connector sits in there. If this panel has ever been removed, the connector may not be visible throught the opening. The panel will have to come off. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Beside of the steering column.

Does a Suzuki Vitra have an obdII plug?
And you fail to list the year of your Suzuki Vitara. If it is a 1996 or newer it is OBD2 compliant and has an OBD2 plug. Look under the edge of the dash drivers side. The OBD connector must be located within 3 ft of the driver. If you had listed the year, I could tell you the exact location.
