When the check engine light comes on, this Bluetooth OBD2 scanner tells you why: plug it into the car's 16-pin diagnostic port, pair it with an Android phone and an OBD2 app reads the fault code, clears it once fixed and shows live engine data. It stays plugged in and is small enough to forget about. It is part of our Automobile collection.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Bluetooth OBD2 scanner work with an iPhone?
We list the Bluetooth OBD2 scanner for Android phones only: its setup guide is for Android apps, and classic-Bluetooth V1.5 adapters like this one usually do not pair with iPhones.
Can the Bluetooth OBD2 scanner turn off the check engine light?
Yes. The Bluetooth OBD2 scanner reads the diagnostic trouble codes behind the check engine light and can clear them from your phone app; fix the fault first or the light will come back.
Where does the Bluetooth OBD2 scanner plug in?
The Bluetooth OBD2 scanner fits the 16-pin OBD2 port found under the dashboard of most petrol cars, usually near the steering column, and runs from the car's 12 V supply.
Why buy 2 or 3 scanners?
The Bluetooth OBD2 scanner is small enough to leave in each car, so the 2 and 3 packs suit a household with several vehicles or a spare for the toolbox.
