Default SimTek ECU and OBD2 diagnostics

Hi,

I can't find too much information about that - does SimTek ECU provide OBD2 socket and OBD2 diagnostics as original Subaru ECUs do (at least those newer)?

Or is there any other way to connect to it and watch some working parameters?

Cheers

You cannot use original diagnostics but you can purchase the software and view some logs from the ecu and the map.

No, you need the specific SimTek software which costs around £100. This comes with a dongle and cable. Install the software on a laptop and connect via the COM port on the laptop.
