Veepeak OBDCheck BLE+ Bluetooth OBD II Scanner for iOS & Android, Car Check Engine Code Reader Wireless OBD Diagnostic Scan Tool

Works well with BimmerCode and Re-Coding a Mini R56 ECU
So I used this device to re-code the ECU/ECM on my 2013 Mini Cooper (R56). For that purpose it worked great. I was able to edit the ECU and unlock a number of features. For example, in the stock configuration double clicking and then holding the unlock button on the remote will wind the windows down from the key fob. However there’s no way to roll the windows back up from the fob. I was able to change the roll down function to pressing and holding unlock just once, and enabled the window roll up feature by pressing and holding the lock button on the fob. I was also able to disable the seatbelt chime for the passenger front seat since that’s where my dog sits and it was incredibly annoying to have that going off the whole time she was up front.Next, I was able to enable some cool lighting features. For example, I enabled a module in BimmerCode that keeps my fog lights on while the high beams are on or while they’re flashed. I was also able to turn off hot and cold bulb warnings for a couple of lights (I have a modded rear bumber with fog lights from the JCW so I needed this to prevent errors from showing).Finally, I made a few changes for quality of life. I turned off the seatbelt chime for the driver seat since I always wear it and the constant reminder was just a little annoying. I enabled the option to automatically fold in the mirrors when locking the car, enabled the mirror to tilt downwards when putting the car in to reverse, adjusted the digital speedometer to show an accurate measurement instead of the slightly modified number BMW shows with the factory settings, and a few other relatively simple changes like that.I never had any issues with connectivity or any other problems with the Veepeak device. It worked flawlessly through all of this re-coding. From what I understand this device will also work with apps like “Torque” where you can connect to a tablet and show gauges like coolant temp, oil pressure, etc., right through the tablet. I believe you can also read codes through it as well with the right app as BimmerCode is able to clear any codes with every re-code. So there’s a wide range of what’s available to you with this device as long as you get the right apps. From what I’ve seen in my personal experience, there’s no reason to buy the more expensive options when the majority of your costs are going to come from the app purchases you’ll need to make anyway. Also, some people have complained that the Bluetooth devices or Bluetooth low energy devices like this have a problem with data transfer speed. I personally didn’t see a problem there. Re-coding was quite fast and I doubt the WiFi versions are any faster as I believe the bandwidth bottleneck is with the ECU/ECM and not with the transfer protocol itself (Bluetooth/BLE/WiFi).

Simple Application
This BT OBDII connector is simple in its application with the addition of a-required App which can be downloaded through the usual platforms for use with either an iOS or sn Android base phone. Some of the apps are free ad-based form, while others require a nominal fee for usage. This OBDII connector has helped (with the app) in ascertaining the vehicle’s diagnostics as well as operational condition. In this instance, it has been used to ascertain average fuel consumption, average speed, coolant and oil temperatures as well as transmission fluid temperature. It is a great means of understanding the vehicle’s condition and help with certain maintenance procedures. Depending on the app coupled with this connector, the information acquired can be made vehicle-specific, for instance, this has been used to reciprocate between 2 cars, and the information has been kept separate for both vehicles. In addition, the usual code verification is also easily performed, errors diagnosed, corrected and erased.A simple but essential tool to use.

Plugs in and works with free reader app
Works week with Ram Promaster 1500 van. Took a bit to get it connected, but after that reliable. Doesn’t seem to drain the battery to leave in all the time. Would be nicer if it had an altitude reading, my last one did and I didn’t realize that wasn’t a standard engine reading. Use it for a digital speedometer on 2019 van

OBD II knowledge of check engine lights is power…..
I have bought several of these and am pleased with their performance. I use it with a phone app called Torque which allows me to view the reason for the check engine light. As a result, i have been able to view and clear momentary faults rather than having to worry that something major is wrong. I look at this item as insurance against not knowing what can go wrong with my vehicles. I have also given these OBD II scanners to friends. I easily links with my phone and is so small that it easily fits in the glove box. I have confidence in the Veepeak products.

Is gemakkelijk om te verbinden

Product works great, straightforward, and easy to connect. One thing I wasn’t expecting was a paid option for the app. The free version works fine for me though no ads. Fit snuggly. Blue light stays on when cars’s off so you can’t leave it plugged in 24/7. I particularly like how you can set up a screen to monitor specific things like coolant temperature. And oil pressure. You can also record live data and play it back.
