I am having the most frustrating problem with this program. I am using the light version on my galaxy s. I can get the satellite emblem, What appears to be phone emblem, the Bluetooth adapter to all go solid blue, but what is this blinking car emblem beside the adapter icon? What does it mean? How can I fix? I have tried everything, including trying different cars, all different makes. Chevy, Nissan, ford, Mazda. Please someone help. Do I need the full version?

All these views on the topic but no one will respond. Wow, I guess not only is the program garbage, so is the support for it. Guess I will leave my negative review and take my business elsewhere.

My guess is the adapter is bad. What is the Adapter Error Count reported in the Adapter Status? if it's higher than 0 then the adapter is faulty.

The apps author is getting married so a delay from him is expected. Trust me ask anyone in here about his support and you will get glowing reviews. I bought a second copy for the girlfriends new phone just to support him. She will most likely never use it.

I agree with an adapter problem. The blinking car icon means torque cannot communicate with the ecu. I would try another phone or adapter. I have both a cheap and a kiwi adapter and the kiwi works much better. The cheap adapter is hit and miss.

I too have this blinking car icon on my Subaru Liberty 2004. It is connected to my ECU OK (top left) but no data is being transfered.

I have tried the ELM 327, and same phone on two other cars with no problems.

Please help................

Cheers

Hi

Can't do much at the moment tfor you as I'm on holiday,.... i take it that after the vehicle icon turns solid blue that you have 0 rpm displayed with the engine running?

Regards

Same problem with 2001 Elantra XD. Actually, I opened a new topic for my particular issue. It's frustrating!! moreover after getting 'Connected to ECU OK' status!
