Fixd OBD2 sensor for Android and iphone

Recommended Posts

Has anyone used the Fixd OBD2 sensor and app on any vehicle they have ? I have been trying to get my 05 GT going ,it keeps showing o2 sensors stuck rich on both banks ,i have changed every sensor and still no good ,i took it to ford and they claim they cant find the problem but they want to change everything to figure it out,i am not quite that dumb ...yet!  Just wondering if it is worth it for diagnosis .

Usually those readers read the generic emissions related OBD codes and clear them using free apps;  unless specified, they do not read the manufacturer specific codes, ABS etc with the free apps. I have a couple of them I paid about $5 some time ago that I read generic codes and see live data (if vehicle supports it) on vehicles with free apps. Also have a more expensive one and a paid app that reads BMW specific codes. I believe the chip inside them matters depending on the vehicle you will use them. Don't expect much from it eventhough it says "professional" in the description. If it was that good, why would shops pay thousands of dollars for their scanner/readers? With all that, they are still good to have on hand when check engine light comes on.

If you assume the O2 sensors are working correctly, then you may have a bad fuel pressure regulator causing you to run rich.

Or, one of the engine temperature sensors is not working and is failed low, telling the EFI to run rich.
