I was looking in to this idea too. The only sources I found was some 
plain C or some kind of C code on sourceforge, which could (painfully) 
be converted or at least derived from to get ideas for FPC.

The downside is that this did not work on a windows Tablet, it has some 
GUI issues that doesn't work right on a tablet, but works fine on a 
desktop pc.

Can't remember the name of the software and don't remember what 
platforms it ran on.. maybe could find it by going to
https://www.google.ca/search?q=obd+sourceforge

But there is also github... But as for FPC code or lazarus code? I have 
no idea. Would be interesting to know.
