OBDII DIY Simple Lock
Seems like Ford diagnostic technicians love to play with OBDII port settings of my new 2019 Ford Ranger. Other than going out and buying a $50 mechanical key lock, I just installed a < $0.10 colored, wide tie wrap around the port connector with a tie wrap gun. (trying to avoid the common black or white colors) So, if Ford needs/wants to "examine" my/your OBDII port, I/you would just authorize them to just cut the tie wrap so they can play. Then you would know if someone attaches to your OBDII port.
