Go to Amazon.com, and look up Bluetooth OBD II interface.....there are many for under $20.....I have an expensive scan tool, but this little baby does practically everything my scan tool does......I downloaded Torque Pro for $5 from the google store to my smartphone, and my smartphone is my scan tool......you can also connect to tablets/pc's for a bigger screen....
Read/clear codes, see live data, even plot/graph data from sensors......these things will put scan tools out of business for the price...

Tech II, Where were you a couple of weeks ago?? This little device is great!!
It appears that it is a two part system; part one is the app or program on a phone or a pc device and part 2 is the plug in module used to transmit the data to the device in part one.
This looks like something I could really use.
As for the apps, some seem pretty simple such as the code reader I have and others seem to have lots of options such as sensor reading and real time graphing of a lot of components.
You mentioned you use the Torque Pro app, but what do you use for the plug in device?
Thanks for opening up a whole new world of info with a device I had no idea even existed!
Thanks for the info
