Greetings from Texas.

I have been a Peugeot owner for thirty years and current car is 1988 Turbo S five Speed.

Trouble is, most of idiot lights and gauges on the dash do not work and I have had to replace the turbocharger twice because there was no indication from inside the car something was amiss. I have looked at after-market gauges, but I do not want to clutter the interior of my car unless it is necessary. A friend suggested looking at the onboard diagnostics bus, as the car has an ECU. This sort of thing did not become standard until the 1990's, so I am grasping for straws. If it exists, then I can hook up a laptop, or build a monitoring system.

Question: Is there an ODB connector on my car? What sort of interface?

After reading Bosch manuals on Jetronic fuel injection and emissions control, I am coming to think it is a closed system, with a blinking light on the dash board.
