The OBDII port is a 16-pin connector found in the driver-side footwell (under the steering wheel).
In the Gen 1 Leaf, it directly exposes the [[AV-CAN]], [[EV-CAN]] and [[CAR-CAN]] buses.<ref>https://leaf-obd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/diagnostic-connector.html</ref>
In the Gen 2 Leaf, it instead connects to the [[CAN Gateway]], meaning that passive monitoring of the buses is not possible via the OBDII port.
This port can be used with generic hardware such as an ELM327-based Bluetooth OBDII dongle to connect to apps such as [[LeafSpy]], or it can connected to [[CONSULT-III plus (C-III Plus)]] via more specialised hardware.
