Late to this party (as usual) but have just ordered the hardware from Amazon.

Ordered this yesterday from Amazon, arrived Today, unwrapped whilst walking to van and modding before the post man has left the road. Awesome bit of kit. Really pleased with the mods and help from users on the thread that have replied to others with solutions.

Just to let all you money conscious members out there I've bought this....

https://www.amazon.co.uk/NAVISKAUTO...94145120&sr=8-1&keywords=NAVISKAUTO+Obd2+wifi

Works perfectly, saves a few quid over the Carista one, just make sure you select the wifi model for £12.99 and not the Bluetooth one.

Got everything to work including looking doors whilst moving, very happy!

Sorry, clearly missing the obvious here... On Amazon, the Carista dongle is Bluetooth

In Google Play, description is "You can use the Carista OBD2 adapter or a generic ELM327 v1.4 Bluetooth adapter"

For the non branded equivalent aboveit states to select the wi-fi model and NOT the Bluetooth one, should it not be the opposite way round?

Thanks in advance

Post a link mate sounds cheap but maybe used?
Just a question for people in the know, if you do a factory reset on the mfd does all the mods reset?

 

[andys]

I only paid a tenner for my ELM dongle, they're only cheap

No shouldn't do, will reset the display to standard but not the coding although my cluster has reset once and I lost the mph speedo for no apparent reason so don't think it's a guarantee

Cheers fella just thought it might make the lock on driving work as this is the only mod that didn't work and it did say a factory reset might be needed for the 4 indicator blinks to work.

Wow, that was £31.99 a couple of days ago... Ordered! I was going for a generic one for around £12.99 hence the query above, this is the genuine one so a bargain price... Thanks!

4 blinks is the way forward

 

[Chrisfraser05]

It comes up as the same one I bought so yes it's good.

Bargain

Can anybody explain how to get the mph speed display working? I've set country to Australia but can't seem to get the display.

Thanks.
