Well, finally decided I better keep up wth you guys and ordered one of the OBD Pro interfaces tonight. Will post up my fondings in another week or so. They now have a special deal with Australian based GLM Software for diagnostic software but I did not take up the offer on purchase so the price has gone up $10 USD for me. I spoke with GLM a while ago and he recommended the OBD Pro because it can be upgraded for free via a FLash download whereas the ELM units need a new chip to be fitted to them.

The GLM software is locked to the PC it is fitted to and they acknowledged to me it was not designed for car PC use and he recommended if I bought his software to put it on to a laptop so I could diagnose more than one car....

I'll keep you in the loop via this thread or my buildup after it arrives

Luck of the Irish mate I think ! If you lived a bit closer, I would have offered to take the one you bought off your hands.

Hey everyone,

After getting the digi gps in on Friday before Teewah, I managed to get the trial version of ozi and ozi ce working which is awesome. Now I am keen to set up the OBD protocol as well to run through the unit. Where should I start?

Do i just need the usb cable from ebay that quinny bought and plug it into the unit? It has a usb port in the back, one in the glovebox through the didgital tv tuner which just runs on aux leads and in the front a smaller usb interface (like one on a digital camera 0 not sure of name)

Could I see the data through the unit or would I have to buy a scandisk2 first?

thanks for the help ;)

Im not 100% sure you'll get it to work through this device... but you could try...

You'll need a OBD cable that comes with a windows CE driver (Just confirm what version of Windows is running on the device)... OR... Get a Blue tooth OBD reader ... that way your PDA should pick it up as a BT serial device....

Then you need to hunt around for PPC based OBD software... again I dont have a copy of this, all mine are PC based... but Im sure mininova or pirate bay will assist in a product...

If both the above are in place then you should be fine...

Bump...

Can anyone confirm that the Series 1 Hilux (May 2005 - Sept 2006) do run on OBD I and that the second series (Sept 2006 - May 2009) and third Series (May 2009 to present) do run on OBD II?

Thanks.

I am pretty sure that the update to the European Emissions would have brought with it OBDII compliance. This happened in about August 06 so you should be in the clear. Maybe check with your dealer. However, I don't really think the logging of engine data is terrribly usefull for a diesel engine as there is a lot less data available on a diesel than on a petrol engine as there is no fuel trim data. You get speed, revs, coolant temp, % load, air inlet temp, fuel pressure, ECU voltage and the remaining 12 or so PID's are not particularly useful. I have never seen barometric pressure move even though it is reported. A lot of the others are like time since DTC reset, time driven with check engine light on and stuff that is not helpful. If you have a laptop, you would be better off grabbing an OBDII interface for it.

I have this and use it for quick scanning of fault codes and the other parameters it offers:

Its handy to keep in the glove box if you are unlucky enough to have the engine light appear.

I use the mini-VCI cable and a cracked techstream for checking the other vitals though.

Found this post about Prados:
https://www.pradopoint.com.au/forum/-120-series-discussion-only/general-120-series/27742-installing-obd2-bluetooth-scanner-on-m-obd-prados

I wonder if anyone has tried stuff like that to make the ELM327 work on the 1KD-FTV models.

Yes the key is the ATIB 96 \n ATIIA 13 \n ATSH8213F0 \n ATSP4 \n 0100 setting in torque.

I tried it but couldn't get it work... this could have been user error or a dodgy m-obd unit.

Hi there...

so I have a quick follow up.

I have an 06 Lux. It was built in South Africa for the European market (2,5l D4D 4WD).
I have the obd plug but have hat no luck in communicating with the ECU.

I can connect to the adapter when it is plugged in - so the port is supplying power - but no luck in communicating with the ECU.

Tried multiple Adapters, APPS and protocols.

'06 for the European market should have OBDII I think.

Any Ideas?

I have a cheap blue tooth adaptor and torque pro on the android radio it shows real time dash display as I drive if i want it and displays clears fault codes ect. What app are you using ?
it shows the same on my cheap android phone.
see if this works https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... n_AU&gl=US
MIne is 07
I'd better update so Im not telling lies.
torque program will read the engine ecu but it wont read the srs system or other modals mine is sr so I don't have any other systems to comment on.
I ended up buying a foxwell srs reset tool to reset the airbag light.

I tried multiple adapters and APPs. I can always connect to the adapter (ELM), but it was never able to connect to the ECU of the car.

Depending on when your Hilux was built, OBD2 was not available on some earlier models, somewhere around 2006 the protocol was introduced.
Argentina – 2009
Australia – 2006 (gas), 2007 (diesel)
Brazil – 2007 (gas)
Canada – 1998
China – 2009
Chile – 2013 (diesel), 2014 (gas)
European Union – 2001 (gas), 2004 (diesel)
Hong Kong – 2006
Israel – 2003
India – 2010
Japan – 2002
Mexico – 2006
Morocco – 2011
New Zealand – 2006
Russia – 2012
Taiwan – 2008
Thailand – 2013
United States – 1996
If your vehicle does not fall into any of the above categories, look under the hood and try to locate a label that explicitly states that the vehicle was designed to comply with OBD-2 legislation.
In this case, OBD2 is used as a general term and can mean any of the following:
OBD II (California ARB)
EOBD (European OBD)
JOBD (Japanese OBD)

Maybe you need to buy the Toyota full diagnostics available from eBay, check this thread

Its likely to be M-OBD. It isnt compatible with many things... there are a couple of gauges out there and techstream will obviously work with it.
