Streaming OBDII data over bluetooth straight to my phone! Works on both the blazer and the jeep and basically anything made after 1995 in the US. Man I have been dreaming about this for years. I was going to add a tranny temp gauge but now I have a generic gauge that can read these parameters and possibly a TON more! A/C System Refrigerant Monitoring Status EGR System Monitoring Status Engine Load Engine RPM EVAP Vent Solenoid Command Evaporative System Monitoring Status Heated Catalyst Monitoring Status Ignition Timing MAF - Air flow rate MAP Misfire Monitoring Status O2 Sensors Throttle Position Vehicle Speed Coolant Temperature Fuel Pressure Short Term Fuel Trim Long Term Fuel Trim Intake Manifold Pressure Timing Advance Intake Air Temperature ... Best of all, the program is open source which means I will be modifying it for my own tastes!!! YAaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! I'll be posting details of my progress on this project in this thread but definitely it's been a very exciting afteroon for me! I have had autotap for a few years but recently, there have been a number of new products that have come out for OBDII that makes things like this very easy to do. The dongle I got off is based on the ELM327 chip which seems to be one of the most popular and well documented. The software I am using for now is OBD Gauge (source code is posted that site as well). I can't wait till I start playing around with the code. You can get a lot more info at www.scantool.net with some other free software as well.

MosJan Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 the Russian one i start it every 30 ~35 days - have lost the interest of driving it long time ago the german one - old one is sold the new one is at the body shop - i have manged to make the R350 - 3' shorter it's no longer a Full size SUV - at list that's how it was since the 19th of February - it should be fixed by teh end of march my problem is on Toyota T100 - now that i have it the way i like it's look and the fill - it has start acting up it's sluggish / not enough power / i constantly need to accelerate RPM over 3000 / it Sim's like the engine is working extra hard 2 weeks a go was taking the friends Pontoon to pyramid lake - what was a normal no problem drive usually - turn out to be a constant torture of the engine something is wrong - i don't; know what it is - I'll just start w/ a tune up / clean the injectors change the filters ad see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted March 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 What year is the T100? Might be bad O2 sensors. Is the engine running rich? Do you get black residue around the tailpipe exit? Is the MPG bad? But tune up would be a good start (not sure how many miles you have). Also don't forget to change the fuel filter if it has one. Clogged air filter also sounds obvious but will make the engine run sluggish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormig Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Obdii is not related to Nintendo Wii, is it? And I only know about the latter from South Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azat Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Sip, that look like a cool phone with a great add-on. I recently got this great phone too. It allows me to make phone calls. Really amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosJan Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 phone calls ?? my phone only tells me the time of the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Wow "phone call" ... now there's a concept! My phone allows me to exchange 4 emails to set up a "phone call" and then another 12 to reschedule the time of the call. Storms, I have to get me a wii too. Thanks for reminding me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
