Hi I have a 7/2003 Holden RA 4x4 Rodeo with a 3.0L turbo diesel engine and a manual trans(possibly known as an Isuzu D-Max outside of Australia). It has an OBDII diagnostic plug under the dash and while it isn't common rail injection it has a certain amount of electronic control ie trimming sensors like a throttle position switch and MAF sensor. It also has ABS and Air bags. I would like to buy the Torque Pro App and an adapter but I want to make sure it will work on my vehicle first.
Could you tell me if the App will be able to extract DTC's and PID data from the ECU, Air bag module and ABS module?
Thanks
You'll need to find out if your vehicle supports OBD-II fully.
I'm not sure how much it supports OBDII, It has the right connector and the manual lists the ECM code as P0 prefix which indicates OBDII but the air bag DTC's use the B0 prefix and the ABS DTC's use the C0 prefix. The manual also has a list of serial data that can be accessed which sounds like OBDII. Of course it doesn't mention any where I found if it is OBDII compliant or not. The factory tech 2 scantool is used for all these systems and I think it works for OBDII as well.
How would I find out for sure? I tried Google but didn't get a good answer.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Try the the free Torque app first and see whether you will be able to communicate with the vehicle. The free version will help you find out whether the vehicle is compatible before going pro. I am assuming that you already have the obd2 adapter....
Not yet but I may be able to borrow one...
I bought a cheap bluetooth adapter off ebay and the torque pro free version communicates with my ecu but not the abs or srs so I'll have to just use a jumper wire and count warning light flashes for those.
cant do. ELM327 can not read ABS/AIR BAG sensors.
you will need better device for that.
example: autocom cdp or something else that support your vehicule.

is torque compliant with autocom's ? i've burn't my ELM trying it on 24V and i found some autocom that are compliant with 24V, but no info about torque, and they're not in torque's compliance list.
