So I've had no luck with elm327 running dash command ect it only lets me code read no gauges I think due to car being ssm. I'm now looking at getting a kkl vag com 409.1 lead and running free ssm or even rom raider. Is this correct? Anyone using these give feed back or even got the elm to work ect?

 

If it`s a cheapo elm they seem to be hit and miss for some of the better aps, seems to be mentioned a lot on the web by reviewers and ap designers themselves......might be that? Torque lite read all the gauges that my ECU supports no problem. Torque pro will log some data, but you need to download and present the data yourself. If you just want gauges, they should be good. If you want to log data, then the vagcom and a lap top prob best.

 

It works for codes not gauges but on my bro's focus rs it works fine I read something about it being jdm Subaru select monitor ? So elm327 won't work?

 

Newage car?
Any cheap vagcom cable and romraider will do fine.

 

Anyone know if an OBD monitor will work ok with my simtek ecu?

 

a vag cable, laptop and romraider is probably the best way to data log on a standard ecu anyway. its more comprehensive and you can access far more data than apps like torque and dashcommand do, handy tho they are for general info and showing some nice gauges.

 

Obd reader wont be connected need to connect with lan cable and have software to access it

 

I brought a cheap eml bluetooth off ebay and it wouldnt connect. Ive just got myself a psi3 data monitor.

 

Just noticed, it may be because you are jdm

 

An obd reader will still read a jdm i could access mine before i went syvecs

 

Thanks jay

 

Ecutek delta dash works fine too for logging and road dyno but not as cheap

 

on my jdm but the elm wont show the gauges etc, but will for fault codes, this is because of the ssm.

there is a elm dongle out there that does read the ssm, but it is around £100 on its own

tried a elm 327 would not connect to the 05 sti wide track Jdm ecu that was messing with laptop functions ended up down loading ssm 1.2.5 and buying a cable of ebay .

 

I use this on my JDM Legacy GT and it works flawlessly!

can you put a vid up with yours working and what it displays please

thanks

I currently just have freessm on my laptop. I'm sure I heard somewhere about an app from carberry/rom raider being developed?

 

Don't mean to hijack your thread,it's a long shot anyway,is there any software for android that would datalog/monitor the older OBD1 ssm?

 

Just found this, I wonder if this will read the ssm?

is there a free ssm that shows gauges like the torque pro app please?
