"A cable is plugged into the OBD-II J1962 connector and the other end is connected to a scan tool. A hand-held scan tool is usually limited to one OBD-II system type - there are three basic OBD-II protocols in use, each with minor variations on the communication pattern between the on-board diagnostic computer and the scan tool. In general, Chrysler products and all European and most Asian imports use ISO 9141 circuitry. GM cars and light trucks use SAE J1850 VPW (Variable Pulse Width Modulation), and Fords use SAE J1850 PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for communication."
