Compact Bluetooth ODB2 reader
The media could not be loaded. ๐ I recently acquired the Bluetooth 4.0 OBD2 Code Reader, and it's notably smaller than the ones I've had before. One of the standout features is its compatibility with FORScan, which is a plus for me as I own a Ford car. It's suitable for both petrol and diesel vehicles under 6.5 tons, covering a wide range of cars. Since I own both types, this reader serves as a versatile solution. In the package, you'll find the OBD2 plug and a surprisingly user-friendly manual.๐ Its great that it uses Bluetooth technology, offering lower power consumption compared to Wi-Fi. Its battery-saving mode automatically shuts the device down after 30 minutes of inactivity, consuming about 3mA while asleep. This is beneficial unless your car remains stationary for an extended period. However, it's worth noting that this feature doesn't apply to electric or hybrid vehicles. I do find the 30-minute duration a bit lengthy if you intend to keep the device connected, as most car systems would have already entered sleep mode. This suggests that the reader is optimized more for diagnostic purposes than continuous monitoring. Notably, most car OBD connectors' cover plates might hinder leaving the reader connected unless modified, which somewhat downplays the sleep mode's premium aspect.๐ The OBD2 reader boasts compatibility with a wide range of third-party applications. For the most current list, consulting their website is recommended. It effectively reads both generic and manufacturer-specific fault codes and should allow you to clear these codes as well, although I couldnโt test this as I donโt have any faults. It offers great value for the money, potentially saving you costly diagnostic fees. With insights into your car's issues, you can seek repair quotes with confidence, avoiding potential overcharges.๐ An interesting feature is the reader's firmware upgrade capability. You can easily find this information on their website. However, it's essential to exercise caution when selecting an ODB scanner app. Not all apps are equally reliable. The app mentioned in the manual didn't work for me, but I had better luck with another one that easily recognized the reader.๐ข In conclusion, this Bluetooth 4.0 OBD2 Code Reader presents an efficient and compact solution for DIY diagnostic needs. Its entry level but its compatibility with various vehicles and the ability to upgrade firmware are notable advantages. It connected to my Ford and Peugeot without difficulty. For its quality, value, and versatile functionality, I recommend this OBD2 Code Reader as a valuable tool for car diagnostics. ๐ข
