The global Automotive On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) market was valued at USD 25.42 Billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 35.62 Billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 5.34%% from 2021 to 2028.

The automotive on-board diagnostics refers to the in-vehicle system, which monitors and reports the status of the vehicle. The OBD port and OBD connector provides access to the various vehicle parameters like vehicle speed, emission data, and engine data in the form of diagnostic trouble codes. Diagnosis solves almost every issue with in the vehicle. The OBD system is designed to reduce emissions by monitoring the performance of engine components. OBD system consists of ECU, sensors, and actuators. ECU uses input from the various sensors to control the actuators to get the desired performance. The malfunction indicator light, also known as check engine light, represents the early warning of malfunction to the vehicle driver. A modern vehicle supports hundreds of parameters that can be accessed through the Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC) using a scan tool.
