I've got it. Works just fine w/ the Torque app.

Sitting in the seat the OBD2 is at your left knee. Read the manual. Most of what you ask is in there.

Go outside and look where I told you to look. It's the only plug looking thing under that part of the dash. It's blatantly obvious. Try finding it yourself. It'll be like a treasure hunt but a really easy one.

That's pretty sad. You get down below the lower seat cushion and it's impossible to miss. It's the only plug in the area.

Looks just like this... (This is not a Forte but it's a universal connector)


You sure you even went out to the car? Maybe you should explore your car a little. I am not being rude but with some of the basic stuff you ask you really need to do some reading and take a look around the car.

It is literally right at your left knee. Just below the bottom most plastic on the knee bolster.

Look harder. It's up under the knee bolster. If you still can't find it, stick to just driving the car.
