Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this ELM327 OBD2 Bluetooth scanner work with my car?

A: This scanner is compatible with most OBD2-compliant gasoline/petrol cars manufactured after 1996 in the US and after 2001 in Europe. It supports 9 OBD2 protocols covering a wide range of makes and models. However, it does not support diesel engines, trucks, or all OBD2 vehicles universally. It also does not read ABS or airbag (SRS) codes.

Q: What devices does this Bluetooth OBD2 scanner work with?

A: This scanner connects via Bluetooth to Android 4.0–4.4 smartphones/tablets and to Windows XP or Windows 7 (32-bit) PCs. It does not support iOS (iPhone/iPad) devices. The Bluetooth pairing password is 1234 and the wireless range is 5–10 metres.

Q: What is the difference between the Red and Green PIC18F25K80 chip versions?

A: Both are genuine PIC18F25K80 chips, but the Red chip version is the higher-quality variant with more stable and reliable OBD2 communication performance. It is generally recommended over the Green version for consistent results across a wider range of vehicles.

Q: How do I use this OBD2 scanner to turn off my Check Engine light?

A: Simply plug the adapter into your car's OBD2 port (usually located under the dashboard on the driver's side), turn on your ignition, pair the adapter to your Android device or PC via Bluetooth, then open the compatible diagnostic app. From there you can read the trouble codes causing the warning light and use the "clear codes" function to reset the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) once the underlying issue is addressed.

Q: Can I leave this OBD2 scanner plugged in all the time?

A: Thanks to the built-in power switch, you can safely leave it plugged into your OBD2 port and simply flip the switch off when you're not actively scanning. This prevents the adapter from drawing power from your car battery while parked, which is a common issue with always-on OBD2 dongles.
