Hi guys, I recently bought an ELM327 diagnostic tool for my OBD2 P11-144, but I spent whole day trying to make it work. I've tried few different kinds of diagnostic software without success. Anyone got an idea how to make it work? Thanks

Is it Bluetooth, USB, Wifi? What are you connecting it to? Phone? Laptop?
I had a Bluetooth one that worked with My 2008 Mazda and a 2003 Toyota. Used with Torque on my Android Phone. It stopped working so I returned it to Amazon Now have a USB one that I use with with Forscan on a Laptop - Mazda/Ford specific Software. Also works on 2003 Toyota and 2001 Hyundai using Laptop with Scanmaster - Generic Software |

It's a USB one connected to laptop. I tried two laptops, one with win10 and another one running win7.

I use mine with Windows 10 and Windows 8.1
It should pop up in Device Manager. You may need to install a Driver. I am away for a couple of Days but can have a look when I am back if you are still having problems.

I installed a couple of drivers including one for USB to serial so it did pop up in Device Manager. Even the software recognized the diagnostic device but it didn't connect to ECU. I once managed to somehow connect to my P11 but it immediately disconnected and the software made some unsuccessful attempts to reconnect.

Well I have this one https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/JlAAAOSwr7ZW7Lgr/s-l1600.jpg
As it has USB i thought it might be good for sensor reading or some other stuff and not just reading codes. Do you mean standalone readers? |

Thanks, looks like bang for buck, especially if it does some sensor reading (likr O2, RPM, etc.
