Obdlink lx bluetooth scan tool

OBDLink ® LX is a budget-priced, pocket-size Bluetooth OBD-II adapter for all OBD-II compliant vehicles (except hybrid or electric vehicles). It can be used as a diagnostic scan tool, trip computer, logger, and real-time performance monitor. OBDLink LX surpassed performance in every competing Bluetooth OBD-II adapter, delivering 300% more data samples per second. Its BatterySaver™ sleep mode allows the adapter to stay plugged in continually, without draining the vehicle’s battery.

Unlike the vast majority of Bluetooth OBD adapters, which constantly broadcast their presence and use an easy-to-guess 4-digit PIN, OBDLink ® LX utilizes a unique multi-layered link security mechanism, eliminating the risk of unauthorized access. OBDLink LX’s support of the de facto standard ELM327 command set, makes it compatible with tons of third-party OBD software and mobile apps.

OBDwiz and OBDLink app, included with OBDLink ® LX, allow you to:

  • Turn off the check engine light, and erase stored diagnostic information
  • Read and erase stored and pending trouble codes (both generic and manufacturer-specific)
  • Access freeze frame information
  • Display, graph, and log 90+ real-time parameters
  • Create custom digital dashboards
  • Measure and display fuel economy
  • And much more!

KEY FEATURES

  • Maximum vehicle coverage (Verify your vehicle is OBD-II compliant)
  • World’s fastest Bluetooth OBD-II adapter
  • Small form factor
  • Hacker-proof

    Pros
    -Product is small and unobtrusive, ideal for my application.
    -Installation and Bluetooth connection to my android device was easy.
    -OBD code reading and clearing is very simple.
    -Scanner tool provides access to real time diagnostic displays in an easy to interpret manner.

    Cons
    -Bluetooth connection is unstable in some mobile devices, dropping the connection in the middle of a diagnostic session or real time monitoring.
    -Unpairing and re-pairing of the scanner tool to a device is needed approximately every three days on all mobile devices tested

    It is not to the latest ELM 2.1 spec but at the 1.4 level. I was told the manufacturer will release a firmware update to include the 2.1 features. For the price it should be the latest ELM 2.1 spec compatible.

    I like that dashboards and displays can be customized to the information YOU want to see in digital, analog, large or small displays, etc. I imagine the available data depends on your vehicle, I have access to more information than I could possibly care to know about the car. I had to pair it twice before it connected but haven’t had an issue since.

    Vehicle speed is spot on. Other things like fuel level and temps are spot on as well.

    Some of the app calculated values aren’t very accurate.

    I bought this as a toy mostly just because I can set up my phone in the car mount and display more information than I would be able to on the vehicles gauge cluster.

    I found that I cannot run both Torque Pro and the ScanTool app at the same time. The ScanTool app has a connect/disconnect button at the bottom of the screen. If I want to use Torque Pro after using the ScanTool app, I first have to disconnect using that button before running Torque Pro.

    And if after using Torque Pro, I decide to use the ScanTool app, I have to quit Torque Pro, crank up the ScanTool app, and hit the connect button.

    I find both apps to be very useful, so that’s a minor hassle in order to use both. I only wish they could both be operative at the same time so I could flip back and forth between them. I don’t know if that is a limitation of Lollipop, BlueTooth, or the adapter.

    Regardless, I find the adapter to work and function as advertised. I am pleased with the product.

    A couple things to keep in mind on what the tool can do for you. You can definitely use it to scan for faulty engine code, so you don’t have to make a trip to O’Reilly’s/AutoZone/AAP for engine code scan. In addition, you can reset the engine codes, and verify the issue after driving for 30 min or less. If you plan to get your car state-inspected, you will definitely need to drive your car for about 30 min, so you don’t automatically fail the test.

    Other neat feature includes real-time monitoring of the vehicle data, including but not limited to engine temperature. In fact, because of this tool, I was able to detect abnormal engine temperature while driving and took corrective measures (adding for engine coolants) before the car breaks down on freeway.

    In all seriousness, within a week later, it detected a failed upstream oxygen sensor. Since I knew what went wrong, I was able to buy an oxygen sensor online and figured out the repair on my own. After that, the same vehicle passed Texas State Inspection. In all, I gained the knowledge on how to replace oxygen sensor and not have to throw money at a local mechanics.

    The included app is great and easy to use as well. It also works with both Torque and Torque Lite. This thing is going to save me tons of money in the coming years! It’s already saved me a trip to the shop by telling me my problem is a bad o2 sensor that I can easily replace myself. Take that emissions! (Posted on 8/15/2016)

    OBDLink LX Bluetooth is an easy-to-use, inexpensive, hacker-proof, lightning-fast Bluetooth OBD adapter that can turn your smart phone, tablet, laptop, or PC into a sophisticated diagnostic scan tool, trip computer, and real-time performance monitor.

    The ergonomically designed, small form factor device comes in frustration-free packaging, and takes an average of 3 minutes to install. The button on the back of the unit makes the connection process both easy and secure: unlike most other adapters on the market, LX Bluetooth neither broadcasts its presence, nor uses an easy-to-guess PIN to protect the communication link. A potential hacker would require physical access to the device, in order to connect to it.

    LX Bluetooth supports all legislated OBD-II protocols, and works with all 1996 & newer cars and light trucks sold in the United States. It also supports EOBD, JOBD, and all other international variants of OBD-II.

    Based on the best-selling OBDLink MX, the budget-priced OBDLink LX Bluetooth offers the same unparalleled performance, delivering up to 4 times as many samples per second as the closest competitor. The ultra-fast response times let you enjoy accurate, detailed graphs and smooth, realistic virtual gauges.

    Consider purchasing MX+ if you need access to the proprietary Ford & GM vehicle networks (MS-CAN and SW-CAN) in addition to the standard OBD-II protocols.

    VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY

    OBDLink LX Bluetooth works with all 1996 & newer model year cars and light trucks sold in the U.S., including all American, European, and Asian vehicles. Live outside the U.S.? Most newer non-U.S. vehicles are compliant with the OBD-II standards.

    • Innovative ‘Connect’ button – requires physical access to enable Bluetooth pairing
    • Secure 128-bit data encryption
    • Class 2 Bluetooth v3.0 transmission (max range: ~ 262 ft)

    OBDLink LX comes with an unconditional 180-day money-back guarantee, and a 3 year warranty.
