Then one day I was in Birmingham picking up a HID kit from ebay and spotted the mini VCI on sale there. I started with the ELM 327, but wanted the ability to bleed the brakes to change the fluid among other things.

I am kind of thinking of getting ELM327 first and Android App, this way I can at ease and no time just plug the device and try to read data. I am mostly on the move and if it happen that I suspect a trouble then I will be keen to know the issue immediately. The only problem with Mini VCI is that it will require laptop. This gives a dashboard readout of just about every parameter available, and records HV battery module voltages and other information to a file. I use an ancient IBM laptop with XP loaded bought for £22, “rather than risk damaging my house machine loaded with Windows 7” and gets over the minor difficulties of getting the program to run on W 7/8.įor purely monitoring purposes I use an ELM327 (bluetooth version) and Priidash (free).

I think the best tool for your requirements is the Mini VCI with Techstream software £22. With the Scangauge you’ll also be able to leave it hooked up to your OBDII port and read real time (real time enough) data with the user selected gauges and x gauges. If you just need to read codes and set some user settings, then Scangauge 2 is also a good choice. +1 on mini VCI cable with hacked Techstream software. Mini VCI with Techstream software. I use it occasionally to keep an eye on the difference between min and max battery module voltage, which I think is a pretty good indicator of battery health. I originally bought it to turn off the idiotic internal reverse beep. On the iPhone, the app can be set up, and there are downloadable PIDs for the Prius so you can monitor all the battery module voltages, temps, whatever you want. The app was a few buck, but I don’t remember. I use an iPhone app called EngineLink that uses a WiFi dongle hooked to the port. It connects and reads codes much quicker than a Mini VCI cable. Version 2.0.4 will connect and read codes. U codes are can bus communication errors. Version 1.4.1 instantly disables the car and reads a bunch of “U” codes. There are more Xhorse made expensive versions out there that have newer firmware 2.0.4. It is much faster and more reliable than the Mini VCI cables, It uses Techstream just as the Mini VCI.

Which is the better one to choose?įollowing are the Toyota Prius real owner experiences on OBD code scanners: With complete coverage, you can get the job done right the first time and prevent dreaded "comeback".I’ve been looking around for a scanner that can read all the various Toyota Prius hybrid & ABS codes, since my extended family owns an ’05 with almost 180k, an ’08 with over 200k, and a ’12 plugin with about 68K. Don't waste your time or money with simple code readers or hand-held scanners when AutoEnginuity's® OBD2 scan tool can not only read your codes, but it can also show you live data, actuate components, and run system tests. But without live data and bi-directional controls, you may not have enough information to properly perform the repair. So you read your vehicle's trouble codes, now what? Reading the trouble codes from your vehicle is easy. What's also important is having access to the most commonly required service features like brake deactivation, service resets, and transmission adaptations-and we do that too.
