Fuse of obd?

I have a 92 RS and I wanted to connect my obd reader to see if there were any codes coming. But either the obd port has went bad or not getting power. I've made sure the scanner works on another car. Any suggestions?
Edit: this car is a 305 tbi I see that I made a mistake.

The obd port doesn’t supply power to a scanner.
