OBD 2 Dongle help/recommendations

[Pioneerchuck]

Alright so I am currently looking for an OBD2 dongle with wireless capabilities so I can "stream" it to my screen in the vehicle. I am looking for one that does tach, speed, mixtures, codes, etc. If anyone has some great recommendations on which to use, Id appreciate it.

You can get one of these or go on ebay and get any OBDII scanner with wifi, or apple with bluetooth.

I use dash command and got one off ebay, it took a second try from ebay as the first wouldn't connect.

 

EDIT: ELM 327 is what you want off ebay.

This works perfectly fine for me

what it reads will depend on what the vehicle monitors through OBD. you could use a Maestro RR, but again it's limited to what your vehicle reads through OBD.

My iphone wouldn't play nice with the ELM 327 bluetooth version had to get the wifi version to use the  EngineLink app

I am mainly looking for tach, speed, voltage, and ratio's. All of which Im able to read with my Launch CRP Pro. So I know the computer has the parameters to show. I'm just looking for a good wireless dongle or whatever everyone calls them, to install in the truck permanently. Ill check out ELM327 and see what I find.

This is also what I use (actually a very similar device). I have an android tablet with the Torque app installed and I can read any information that the ECU produces. I am able to clear engine codes as well with it. Its a very cheap solution.

I use an android phone for exactly this reason it works very well for me as I'm able to monitor all sorts of sensor and investigate and clear any error codes my ecu spits out

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the help. I wound up going with the Dash Command app and 1 of the inexpensive adapters. It was able to read voltage and all parameters I was interested in.
