Check out www.bb-elec.com they make many protocol converters and also have a
OBD II Diagnostic scanner for vehicles '96 and up. They also provide some
info on the protocols used by GM, Ford, Chrysler. They don't get into
detail but they list the Standards (i.e. GM uses SAE J1850 VPW.) I believe
the Society of Automotive Engineers writes the standard protocols, at least
in the US.
