OHP FORScan ELM327-based OBD2 to USB Diagnostic Scan Tool with MS-Can/HS-Can Switch for Ford Lincoln Mazda Mercury Vehicles

Good product

Works great just a heads up it does take some time to set up but not to bad to do.

Works with Forscan, was able to program a second key fob, replaced ABS unit and loaded factory config. Great tool for Ford vehicles.

I bought this for use with the Forscan program in making some modifications to my 2017 XLT F250. It works as advertised. I've been able to remove undesired, and add desired features to my Super Duty. For example, I turned off the chimes that indicate when a door is ajar, when the key is in the ignition, and the 3 chimes when you first key on the ignition. Ive added the "Hill Descent Control" feature with the use of Forscan & the installation of a $12 button, which is a feature found on FX4 packages. I am in the process of adding Powerscope/Powerfold mirrors to my truck, and without this cord, I'd be forced to hand the truck over to the dealership for them to activate everything. This has also given me the capabilities to view & clear DTC's. It will give you data logging capabilities as well but I havn't gotten into that yet. The only problem I had with this cord is, when it first arrived, the locknut on the HS/MS Can switch was loose, so I figured the switch was most likely not oriented properly. It took a few minutes of trying to connect to the truck to figure out that the switches orientation does not match the label. This is why it lost a star.

Good support from OHP. *DOES* have a physical switch for MS/HS CAN and works with FORScan on 2010 Ford SUV.

Any OBD2 should be able to diagnose and 'fix' the problem codes. This does that. Many reviews say that the USB cable is flimsy. Mine is not. The switch could be better in location, as it is difficult to switch between the two modes. and too, the toggle switch seems cheap. Usage of this on a regular basis, I can see the switch going bad first. The LED do it's job as well, The indicators show what is being worked on at the time. For the money, this is excellent for a wired OBD2. My choice as I have yet found a BT or WiFi that accurately reads correctly. There are no instructions. Not an issue, if you have no idea how to use this, don't. No sense having a brick for a car because the one system change. An oops moment that you do not want. Software is a link on a biz card. The basics, unless you decide the membership part to unlock all the features to do a real tweaking on the vehicle. I bought a year for what? $10.. yes. It's worth it to open the software up for what you really need to do. One that really I needed it for was the Sync and the MyKey feature. With only one key, I did brick my Ford. I backed up the configuration in case this would happen, and I ended up having to make a key, because Sync has an issue with the one.. that is not a Admin key. The OBD2 w/software did it right by just resetting the whole system, giving me no Admin or Valet keys. MyKey no longer is enabled, thus PATS is disabled for the transponder. Now that it is gone, I can upgrade to a push button start. Again, if you do not know what you are doing, don't. I backed up my configuration, not difficult, but a little hard to find. Ford wanted to charge me 350 to remove the MyKey feature. I did it for 100. And I can use the equipment and software for a year, thus making me money. Especially since I figure out that nuisance of MyKey. Well worth the money for the hardware. Durable and small enough to wrap up and put in the glovebox.. or tool case.

Unfortunately zero stars is not an option. The device would not connect to any computer I attempted. The website listed for downloading drivers no longer exists. They sold me a device that is broken and unsupported. I returned it and was charged a damaged item fee. Amazon corrected this but this third party seller still made profit for selling defective product. Amazon lost out on the fee.

It worked as expected, I was able to connect and communicate with my car as soon as I downloaded the Forscan app, good tool to check issues on my ford car.

Perfetto

Delivered as described and on time. It working fine with FORSCAN for my Ford explorer 2014. It is not connecting with FOCCUS but this is not due due any issue in the device. The device function is perfect

Fonctionne très bien avec mon nouveau ford Mach-e 2021 et un vieux PC windows. Vraiment très simple d'utilisation et le piton H-L fonctionne très bien. Le logiciel nous dit quand le mettre à H ou L. Bref pour le prix, tu peux pas demander mieux.

Package is simple, just a bag with device and CD. Device is clearly some kind of China import, HS/MS switch is wrongly marked (on my device it is marked as HS/HS, confusing but from original picture I was able to determine which position is HS and MS so I don't take it as an serious error). Disc contains driver and Forscan software, both outdated, but it can be easily updated. Device was used with latest Forscan and plugged to Mondeo Mk3 TDDi, reading and programming works flawlessly. I am very satisfied.
