obd interface fallen behind dash

[amron]

Hi guys I went to plug in my code reader tonight but the interface has fallen behind the panel. I can catch the wires with my fingers but not able to pull back into place. Am I able to get to it if I undo the flat screwson the panel underneath the steering wheel, 3 off them and glue it back into place,
Cheers Norma

Sounds like you mean the 3 screws you realease to open the passenger fusebox cover. They're 1/4 turn fixings BTW.
Can't do any harm & you may be able to get at the OBD connector that way - I've only looked once & honestly can't remember.

There's more than three screws. You've got 3 studs holding the soundproofing on, then about 3 visible screws and another 3 well hidden ones on the plastic. I remember one of them is in a REALLY awkward place but can't recall where...

Cheers guys mabey I should just go back to the garage they were the last to connect to their diagnostic machine
mjb it was the soundproofing studs that I was looking at didnt realise that there were so many will need to get to the connector as its no use to anybody where it is....

Managed it after work pulled the lever on left hand side and 1/4 turned the studs that was it one of the wee clips on the sideof the connecter has broken thats why it fell behind So thanks for the tips I would have probably tried to screw the studs off.
Cheers
