AlfaOBD

[djevox]

Not all OBD2 adapters are compatible with alfaOBD. Not sure if this is one that has been verified as working

I’m hoping that’s not the case, but I had a feeling that’s what you and Jimmy might say. I ordered a mx+ an hour ago just in case. Thanks!

Also make sure any other apps like OBD Fusion on your apple or Torque, etc. are not connected/running in the background.

Have you tried another android app (like Torque) with the OBD reader?

You might want to check out this thread: LEAFSpy and LELink2 issues?

"The LeLink2 appears to be Bluetooth LE (4) so it doesn't "pair" with your device the same way an older Bluetooth 3 or earlier adaptor does. Bluetooth LE devices work in both Android and iOS, and are directly accessed in the App without going through bluetooth settings in the operating system. Leafspy has a separate option for BLE devices although I've never tried it as I don't have one."

I have a Bluetooth adapter I had from previous vehicles that works great with Torque, but wouldn't work with alfaOBD

Some of the cheap ELM327 BT OBD readers aren't fast enough.

I have a $20 BAFX adapter that kinda sorta works with AlfaOBD but I only use it on other cars to read/clear codes and leave the MX+ plugged into the truck always.

I run obdfusion on iphone, so I made sure I turned off bluetooth. The Samsung a8 tablet I’m using only has alfaobd installed, so I haven’t tried running any other software to connect from that device. I am making assumptions that the connection is fine between alfaobd and the LELink solely because it says connected and doesn’t spit out any connection errors. I’m assuming hardware is working because it works well with obdfusion.

Ha, I found that thread earlier today. I definitely can’t get get an automatic connection without selecting for connect in alfaobd, so I am not sure how that worked for them, unless maybe if join adhoc networks was enabled?

I think I’m in the same camp as HSKR with the adapter not fully working with alfaobd, but I’m not 100% certain on that. My WAG is that it’s for the reasons you just posted.

Buy once cry once. The MX+ will work great.

Make sure you update the firmware using their app when you get it.

Firmware - story of my (professional) life. Always firmware, or DNS. LOL

I have the BAFX adapter for mine. Has done everything I wanted to use it for. I know it won't connect to some modules, but I havent wanted to change anything on those anyways.

Ordered yeaterday afternoon and it’s already here. As much as I don’t like them, Amazon is great sometimes.

@HSKR R/T @Brutal_HO Thanks for the responses. The mx+ works like a charm.

Is there a way on Alfa OBD to just turn these lights on at this brightness without the headlights for DRL’s?

View attachment 135373 Yes there is!

If I have a Laramie with the air suspension and the off road group, can I use Alphaobd to give me the non-ORG ride heights and 5 height settings by simply changing the “VehConfig 2-Off-Road Capable Vehicle“ option from yes to no? or is it not that simple?

Is the radio supposed to go black when using the bypass cable? Mine does

No. What are you using it, and is everything off when you connect it?

No I'm using it when in run and the screen to the 12" radio will go black everytime. Alfaobd still seems to work though

Yes when choosing aligt location for your DRl's choose the SRT option. It worked om my 2022 Night Edition Ecodiesel. Then find the voltage output and raise it the max of 12.2v. Mine was set on 7.2v when I found this out.

[Synergy26]

Is there a way to modify the HVAC setting ramp up, fan speed or temp with alfa obd? It look like I might need a special cable for it to connect. Does anyone know?
