OBD socket on S Max?
« on: July 03, 2012, 09:24:51 pm »
Not sure if anybody will know but I can't seem to be able to locate the OBD socket on my Ford S Max. Any ideas where it is or how to get to it?

Sorry mate. I would say it's normally hidden behind ashtray's or coin holders and the like. Good luck.

Worst case a call to Supperchips should sort it.  :ashamed:

I'll have another look tomorrow. It could be behind the coin bin (if it's removable) or possibly above it at an awkward angle. I just wanna get the map on  :signLOL:

I've not mapped it yet, need to send the file to superchips first. The port is behind a small plastic flap which is at the top of the coin bin when it's open. It's quite well hidden  :signLOL:

Got the map on now and as expected there's a big difference. Pulls much better now all the way to the redline  :driver: Still nothing like the golf but good considering the size and weight
