where are you purchasing the device? the cheap ones do not work, the ones made by OBDlink work excellently
 






Thanks. Ebay. Bought cheap one to try. Doesnt work on our Toyota either.
 






Won't work. Get a good one like Mr Rooney said.
 






I bought the mini (blue one) and it has been functioning perfectly for several years now.
 






I had a few cheap Elm327's purchased from ebay and amazon and they worked maybe once each. I finally purchased a dedicated scanner instead of wasting money on the cheap adapters..
 






I don't know what protocol it uses, but the Carista unit works great, especially paired with the OBDFusion app. Been using both for about a year on both Explorers and my wife's Fusion.
