First, let's ensure that everything is working fine!

Here's how...

Windows Vista/7/8/10: Control Panel » System » Device Manager

Windows XP: Control Panel » System » 'Hardware' tab » Device Manager

Notice any device with any one of the following names:

1. FT232R USB UART
2. Prolific USB-to-Serial...
3. USB Serial Port
4. USB2.0-Serial
5. Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge

NONE of above devices should have a yellow mark () next to them.

If none of the above has a yellow mark, then congratulations! You're ready to begin scanning your car(s). Click here on how to connect to your car in the next 5 minutes...

If any one of above devices has a yellow mark, then:

1. Right-click on that device » Uninstall
2. Unplug cable
3. Restart PC
4. Download and unextract DRIVER PACK 6
5. Double-click on 'InstallUSB' to install
6. Connect cable to laptop. Yellow mark should now be gone. Success!
   If yellow mark is STILL not gone after doing 1-6 above, then do this:
   

   a) While cable is plugged in, right-click on device with the yellow mark.
   b) Click on: Update Driver Software
   c) Choose: Browser my computer for driver software
   d) Browse to and select folder where you unextracted Driver Pack 6. Make sure 'Include subfolders' is ticked ON.
   e) Click on: Next
   f) If you get RED warning, choose: Install this driver software anyway
   g) After it installs successfully, another yellow mark may appear under 'Other Device'. Eg:
   h) If g above is true, then do steps a-f for 'Unknown Device'. It may also show as 'COMx'.

Even DRIVER PACK 6 didn't help? Then likely it's a 'Code 10 error' next to 'Prolific USB-to-Serial' device. Click here to fix that.

Even 'Code 10 error' fix didn't help and yellow mark () is STILL not gone? Go to Troubleshooting below.

Step 1: Install your OBD2 software (if you don't have it — checkout TOAD OBD software). Do NOT launch it yet.

Step 2: Connect ELM327 USB to your computer and car's OBD port (usually underneat dashboard/steering wheel).

Step 3: Place the key in the ignition and turn it forward to 'ON' position. (Position where all dashboard lights are on. This is one position before engine starts.)

Step 4: Start your OBD diagnostic software. Click 'Connect', and it should auto-connect to your vehicle. That's it!

TIP: If you want maximum data reported from the car — turn on the engine.

Yes, you can safely drive the vehicle while ELM327 is plugged in and application is monitoring car's data. Keep eyes on the road at all times.

Common Solutions:

If you're unable to connect successfully to your car, then that's because of 2 reasons:

1. Your vehicle is notOBD2 compatible.
   
2. Random issues that can be fixed with below solutions...

Here are solutions in recommended order:

1. First check that ELM327 is physically working (not defunct). When you plug in the cable into a USB port, all the lights on ELM327 interface/device should flash. And then it'll return to 1 red light (power).
   Condition of a defunct ELM327 interface: All lights will not initially flash, and only red light will be on.
   
2. Restart computer (while keeping cable connected to laptop). Try again.
   
3. Plug USB into different physical port of your computer. Try again.
   
4. If all above solutions fail, then we will help you (only if you are Total Car Diagnostics customer). Here's all you need to do...
   

   Connect ELM327 USB cable into laptop. (Don't need to plug the other end to car)

   Step 1: Go to Control Panel.

   Windows Vista/7/8/10: Control Panel » System » Device Manager
   Windows XP: Control Panel » System » 'Hardware' tab » Device Manager

   Step 2: Expand 'Ports (COM & LPT)' and 'Other Devices'.

   Step 3: Take picture of the screen (Press 'Print Screen' key on the keyboard then paste into any graphics program. Or take shot with camera/phone.)

   Step 4:Contact us and attach the picture.
