Default OBDII Port Dead

While I peruse the wiring schematics, anyone know offhand if there is a fuse (and if so, which one?) that will render the OBDII port dead?

Edit (Later)
Looks like the 5A #6 in the boot fuse box is a player...
or #10 in the RH Heelboard fuse box, also a 5A...


I'll check 'em tomorrow.

Default Resolved!

It was the 5A #6 in the boot. Root cause was my ELM327 Bluetooth adapter. I've had several of the el-cheap-O ones fail in the past but always in the data realm - quits reporting certain parameters or reports wild values for some...until now, never had one develop a short.


I may take the advice of the Torque-App developer this time a go a little more upscale - see if I get a better longevity...

Good to know, as a Bluetooth OBDII reader is on my list of to-do's at some point.

I keep a Bluetooth OBDII reader plugged in until I get around to replacing my bad O2 sensor. The CEL is annoying.
