Where is the EOBD port located on the Opel/Vauxhall Meriva?

Model: Vauxhall Meriva Meriva A, MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see where the EOBD (European On Board Diagnostic) port is located on the Opel/Vauxhall Meriva. This port is how our car communicates with workshops to report various problems. If we are DIY enthusiasts, we can also communicate with our car through this port with the help of an OBD11 reader, and through a code decoder that we can download on our smartphone, we will be able to understand what problems our car has. Decoding programs are normally free, and OBD11 devices cost from a few tens of euros upwards. We can find our EOBD socket in the central console, under the glove compartment: we will have to remove a light plastic trim and underneath we will find our socket, next to the edge on the passenger side.
