Where is the OBD Port on the Dacia Sandero?

Model: Dacia Sandero MK 3 - Years 2021-2026

The OBD port has been mandatory for many years on all vehicles and is used by mechanics to diagnose faults in the electronic control units via reading systems. In fact, users can also use it to clear minor faults or reset warning lights that are difficult to turn off with traditional methods. By using a digital scanner that can be purchased for a minimal cost (around £90 to £100 on major e-commerce platforms) and a standard cable, you can clear faults without needing to visit a garage. Naturally, you need to know where the OBD port is located. It is usually near the footwell, but Dacia has chosen to install it in the glove compartment, as shown in this video.
