Sportivo protocol OBD

[Licky]

Hi all,

I have searched for days trying to find the answer, i found some info, but looked like it lead to a dead end. Anyway, obviously the sportivos dont support OBD II Elm Readers, but from the looks it supports a OBD II CAN protocol compatible reader?.

Has anyone actually tried one of these on there stivos yet?, with any luck?

Would be handy to have to check sensors and what not.

thanks for you help, sorry if this has already been covered, i have looked for the last few days with no luck.

they are OBD II but we dont know exactly what OBD II protocol it takes. but yes as u found out already the ELM327 USB doesnt work on it.

the i-moni from apexi though works fine. but doesnt display voltage.

Whats an OBD?

[(mr2)]

OBD is On Board Diagnostics. It's a port used with diagnostic equipment to read the cars computer, this can help diagnose a problem with the car, show what faults have been logged, update the car's computers as well as other features.

Mount it on your steering wheel or dash?

I was thinking of mounting it on the bottom of the A pillar for when i get mine.

Steering wheel would be a headache and a half
