Toyota Obd2 Scanner

[Osman Briseno]

doesit matter which elm327 scanner tool i get, as long as it reads iso14230? there are many on ebay most cheaper than the one in the link in this write-up. my concern with this elm327 scanner is that in the description it says it reads obd2 and eobd (euopean) but it doesnt mention jobd for japanese, it also says at the bottom of the description in red that it may not work with some apps such as Torque, which happens to be the other suggestion in this write-up

Both Global Techstream, (Cloned Mongoose VCI Ebay Find), and Torque Pro, (Amazon ELM327 wireless bluetooth), scanned just fine in the Scrapyard Scamp, (Aristo VVTi, 1971 Plymouth Valiant Scamp). On our Tweaked Performance Harness we had Cam add the SIL lead and we pinned that to PIN 7 of a standard J1962, Obd2 Connector. Pins 4&5 were put on chassis grounds and Pin 16 was constant power. Thanks to you guys for the Advanced Torque Pro strings. Techstream Global is pretty slow and data refresh rates are not very speedy. Greddy Infometer Touch would be a good option to consider here.

Hi. Do you know if the ELM327 scanner tool works with other software for PC? I would like to connect via laptop and have option of mobile phone too if I want. Also, do you know if these cheaper USB OBDII mini VCI cables work in the link below?

The Techstream solution is the tool that dealerships use now and gives you an out of the box capability for reading / clearing codes and viewing live data. The ELM solution requires you to know PIDs for nonstandard live data and does not give you the ability to set vehicle options, etc.
