Features

Obd Mate is universal car dashboard application with a number of cool features

  • Speed (from GPS or from OBD data)
  • Engine load
  • Air intake temperature
  • Car battery voltage
  • Tire pressure (CAN)
  • Distance to empty (CAN)
  • Fuel consumption (instant and average)
  • Show and reset trouble codes
  • Engine RPM
  • Coolant temperature
  • Throttle position
  • Other features

Important

• You need ELM327 Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or USB adapter to connect to a vehicle.
• You should use ELM327 v1.5 adapters, because ELM327 v2.1 adapters often do NOT work correctly.
• App supports long T'eyes OBD2 adapters (2nd version)

This application is able to get information from CAN bus without using an OBD-II adapter (in case you have T'eyes head unit with CAN bus box installed).

CAN bus support added for the following vehicles:

• Infiniti FX35/FX45 (2003-2008)

If you have installed T'eyes head unit (SPRO, TPRO, CCx) along with T'eyes CAN bus box, contact me, and I'll add your vehicle support to the application.

Quick start guide

• Download the app
• Plug in ELM327 adapter into 16-pin diagnostic connector of your vehicle
• Switch ignition ON (or start the vehicle)
• Discover your Bluetooth ELM adapter in your Android device settings, or directly in application settings. Skip this step if you use Wi-Fi or USB adapter
• Select ELM327 adapter in the app settings
• Connect to the adapter

App should connect automatically, or you can force reconnection by pressing connection button on the right top corner on the main screen.

Diagnostics

Application can be used to read and clear diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

You can read and reset trouble codes from OBD-II compliant control units. To read and clear trouble codes from auxiliary control units (like SRS, ABS, etc.) you should use professional scanners.

Application provides full trouble codes descriptions, you can also search for descriptions in Internet just by click on code.
