Honda vehicles sold in India — from the popular City and Amaze to the newer Elevate — use Denso and Keihin ECU platforms. Honda has a well-established OBD2 system, and most scanners with Honda-specific enhanced support can access full system diagnostics including the Honda-specific DTC codes beyond standard OBD2.
