LIKE requires wildcard characters, in the same what the Windows File names can:
"*.jpg" for example returns all files ending with ".jpg"

For SQL the wild card is '%':

SQL

SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE UserName LIKE '%fred%'

will return:

fred
alfred
freda
hello, my name is fred the dwarf warrior

Solution 2

It looks like you need to add the wildcard operator (%)into your like clause.
... something like this:

C#

dr = MYDBConnection.ExecuteReader_Query(@"select IE_VECHICLE_CODE from IE_VECHICLE_MASTER where VEHICLE_MAKE='"+objDetails.VechicleMake+"' and VEHICLE_MODEL='"+objDetails.VechicleModel+"' and VEHICLE_SUBTYPE like '%"+objDetails.VechicleSubtype+"%'");
