This initiative updates and clarifies the requirements of Annex X to Regulation (EU) 2022/858 on access to vehicle Repair and Maintenance Information (RMI) and vehicle On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) information to take into account technological progress and, notably, to facilitate faster software updates by independent operators and repair and maintenance of modern driver assistance systems and batteries, but also to ensure equal access to OBD information by means other than via the standardized connector. Most importantly, it lays down rules ensuring secure access to OBD information by specifying the measures that vehicle manufacturers are allowed to take to this effect.
