If you want to check the error codes of your Mitsubishi Space Star's ECU and have purchased an OBD II reader, you are now looking for the EOBD connector, which, as you may have seen in videos or on your friends' cars, is usually near the steering wheel or in the footwell, between the steering wheel and the driver's door.

However, that is not the case here.

Mitsubishi has placed it in an unusual location. It is actually under the glove compartment in the centre console.

You need to gently remove the compartment with a screwdriver, and underneath you will find the EOBD port and another connector.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
