The OBD port on a 2010 Ford Explorer is located underneath and to the left of the steering wheel. OBD-II serves as an onboard computer that tracks emissions, mileage, speed, and other car data. Linked to the Check Engine light, it signals when a problem is detected. The system stores Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC), which can be accessed by connecting an OBD-II scan tool to the port. Local auto parts stores offer free engine code checks where they can display the stored code and potential reasons behind it.
