Ok so I bought a elm 327 wifi adapter and downloaded the dash command app,I then added all the tech info to the app, now I can get the app to say it's connected to the wifi on the elm but I'm receiving no data at all, I cannot get the PIDs to validate so abit stuck now
I've had a look through snet and seen there have been some difficulties in the past I guess I'm wondering if anyone has the same set up working on a newage jdm and what's required I have a 03 spec c ..


Thanks CSF

Anyone,,,, I've read all the scoobynet posts on the dash command with the elm
Is anyone able to give a final verdict on wether it will work or what is needed for it to work or have I just wasted £20 on the app and the elm dongle ?

AFAIK Dash command is pure OBDII/EOBD whereas most JDM Subaru's require SSM

The ELM 327 seems compatible with SSM's ISO 9141 protocol.

Have you looked at Torque app as I believe it's now (since 2012) been compatible with SSM

Hi Don, according to that link you posted above the cheaper elm 327 adapters don't work and I would need to purchase a obd key product for it to support Ssm ? @ £85 for a obd key dongle and + I have no android devices with Bluetooth at present I guess it's gonna cost me a few £££ to get the set up.

wouldn't mind but !! I already have a iPhone with dash command installed, a iPad Air, a kindle fire ( amazon market place ) and a cheep android tablet with Torque pro installed ( no Bluetooth ) then I have both elm 327 wifi and Bluetooth dongles non of which I can seem to make work.. starting to get stressed with the whole bloody thing !

Romraider states SSM uses an ISO9141 interface

http://www.romraider.com/RomRaider/SsmProtocol

According to ELM, the 323, 327 and 327L are compatible with ISO9141-2

https://www.elmelectronics.com/products/ics/obd/

However it appears they use a fixed AT command set.

From SubaruOutback.org

What adapter works?:
The software works with all ISO-9141-2-/ISO-14230-1-compliant (K/L- and KK/L-) interfaces, that serve as simple voltage level converters ("Dump"-interface) or have a "pass-through"-mode.
The interface must be selectable through a serial port, which also includes USB-interfaces whose driver provides a virtual serial port (e.g. interfaces with FTDI-USB-chip).

This is a (incomplete) list of interfaces that should work with FreeSSM (no guarantee !):
- all interfaces that work with VW-Tool and VAG-COM up to version 311.3 (409)
- openPort-interface 1.2/1.3 (not 2.0 !)
- interfaces with AGV2055, AGV3000, AGV3001, AGV3100, AGV4000, AGV4500 chipset that provide a switch to activate the "transit mode" (e.g. OBD-Diag®-interfaces)
- "Jeff Noxons" interface (-design)
- "Andy Whitakkers" interface (-design)

Interfaces with ELM-chip (ELM320, ELM322, ELM323, ELM327) will not work, because they use a fixed AT-command-set which is not compatible with the SUBARU®-specific protocol.

The OpenPort 1.2/1.3 interfaces are actually ISO-9141/ISO-14230-pass-through-interfaces with minor extensions (serial status/handshaking lines are used for e.g. switching the program voltage).
______________________________________

With that being said, if you already have one of these adapters congratulations! If not you can decide which one you would like to get.
My recommendation: Vag-Com KKL 409.1 can be found for $18 on ebay from a U.S. seller.

How about Free SSM? however it's a pc based software so not suitable for phone/wifi/bluetooth setup.
