OBD2 Adapter FORSCans VINT-TT55502 ELMconfig ELM327 Modified VINTscan for All Windows Compatible with Ford Cars F150 F250 and Light Pickup Truck Scan Tool, Code Reader MS-CAN HS-CAN Switch Black

Works great, use for forscan and has worked really well I bought a year ago and no problems

I used it to activate numerous features in Ford's Sync 2 using ForScan, and identify a broken fuel sensor. It worked flawlessly and saved me thousands thus far. Imo, it is totally unjustified to even give a one-star subtraction for the lack of proper labeling of that HS/MS switch - let alone a one star review!! It is practically hassle-free to figure this out, and any regular (i.e. non-anal) user will eventually have the switch in the wrong position by accident when operating Forscan - just switch, and problem solved! Here the 3 typical scenarios: 1) Connecting to a vehicle: When establishing connection to the vehicle, Forscan tells the user that the switch has to be on HS. If the connection fails, simply change the switch position and redo the process. This takes about 30 seconds. Then label this as the HS position on the scanner. This is the most 'time-consuming' and intellectually challenging task. 2) Initial diagnosis scan: Forscan starts to scan error codes in the HS modules, then asks the user to switch to MS modules. If the switch is set to the wrong position at any time, a notification pops up, asks to switch and hit 'ok', and that's it. No computer restart, no reconnection, no hassle at all. That takes less than 5-10 seconds. Note: switching back and forth is actually part of the regular operation of all of those scanners. 3) Retrieving details about various error codes in different modules, de-/activating features in modules: The initial scan provides a list of DTS codes (or hopefully not). Clicking on a DTS code or a module could result in the notification that the switch is not in the proper position. A regular user will just switch blindly to the alternative position, then hit 'ok' and go on with life. Only people of questionable mental state would instead check in Forscan whether that particular module is HS or MS, then get out of their seat and on their knees with a flashlight to change the switch, etc, etc. So, even if it was labeled higly visibly on the device, nobody would actually bother to look at it during operation...

Used link to calibrate my speedometer. I bought new tires/wheels which were 33" in diameter and the speedometer was reading 60 MPH when actually traveling 66 MPH according to my GPS. I used my ancient PC with windows 7 and downloaded the Forscan app as well as the drivers for the adapter. I'm normally a IOS user but Forscan only works with windows. Watched a couple of Youtube videos and follow some of the recommendations in other reviews. After downloading and communicating with the vehicle, I was able to change my tire circumference in mm and program ithrough the OBD in about 5 minutes. I'm pleased with this interface.

No software included is about the only negative. Here is the story however... I have a 2005 F-150 with a Ford factory rebuilt transmission. (The old one had no second gear and was shot after 200,00 miles from the previous owner hauling around a popup camper on it) So $3,500 later and not long after the new transmission was installed, the truck started slipping in second gear again!!! Makes zero sense at this point. Anyway, I have two OBD readers for my E39 BMW and I figured I'd try an OBD reader for my Ford truck. The software has to be downloaded from a couple of strange websites and my antivirus software did not like them at all, so I had to disable it in order to get them and install them. The sites are safe, but the antivirus didn't, so no big deal, just disable it temporarily for the installation. Anyway, once you install it and follow the tri-fold user guide included with the scanner, you just plug it in and run Forscan lite software. Works perfectly and yes, the switch on the unit is a little bit of a pain to deal with, but it doesn't hurt the car at all. Very safe to use. I knew from the BMW that when some major components are installed, you need to tell the car to clear your adaptions so that the car can re-learn your driving style and environmental conditions. This worked for the BMW with the transmission torque converter slip I was getting, so I tried it on the Ford and sure enough it worked! It has not slipped since and is still adapting and learning to my driving style. Problem solved and for only $18 at that!!! A little while back I asked the local Ford dealer how much to diagnose and repair or replace my factory warrantied transmission and they said around $1,800 even with the full warranty I have on it!!! Well, worth every penny for this OBD scanner! Just be careful and do not erase the engine adaptations because you will have to complete drive cycles in order to pass emissions. That's the biggest take from this. Just be careful and if in doubt, go to the online enthusiast forums for your particular vehicle. Happy motoring!!!

Works as advertised to make changes to BIU on ford F150 with Forscan software.

Den skulle kunna användas till Forscan. Forscan accepterade inte den som OBD2-läsare och jag kunde bara läsa 5 moduler av ett hundratal.

Bought as I had read that the big blue oval mirror company had put features in cars but not enabled them if they weren't paid for but we're available on the car supplied to the customer. Wasn't particularly hard to set up on my laptop after downloading the Forscan software (you'll need to pay or get a trial) but it's definitely not for a novice. My interface wasn't recognised by the software until I manually set to recognize the com port the interface was using and it was 38k baud. When set up the interface performed well, changing the switch when the software required it. I've now added fuel economy, tyre pressure readings and added 30bhp to my engine! All good!

Only HS is working! I took much pain and effort to isolate, with different settings and even ACM modules, that my inability to access MS-CAN is due to this OBD2 adaptor. Have to get a replacement adaptor and chuck this aside.

Recibido antes del plazo y su funcionamiento es muy rápido. Todo ok.
