FIXD OBD diagnostic tool

[hayjulz]

Has anyone seen this little gadget? I wonder if it's worth the $60 per unit to be able to do your own diagnostic and get the results on your smart phone?

There are many varieties of scanners on the market especially Bluetooth powered. Some better than others of course.
I have had this one for a couple years and like it because it will work with my Android phone or my iPad, log data in real time, store etc etc etc. Will also clear codes which a lot of others will not.

Thanks Dennis. This one is $60, or cheaper if you buy multiples. Since you have an OBDII type, I assume that's what the Thunderbirds have.

From the article in the OP,,,

"EVERY car built in 1996 or later is required to have this port." Referring to the OBDII port.

The BlueDriver is more money but has many more features. If all you want is to read codes the $60 version will do the trick. I was looking for a little more.

It is just another OBD scanner, you can find many models on Amazon. Found mines last year for sale at $38.00
