FORSCAN ADAPTER OF CHOICE

OBDLink EX is an affordable, user-friendly, professional-grade OBD adapter designed from the ground up to take full advantage of all of the features of the FORScan software for Windows. In turn, FORScan takes advantage of exclusive OBDLink functionality. FORScan team recommends EX for its connection reliability, lightning-fast data transfer speed, and support of the proprietary Ford CAN buses.

OBDLink EX can access 100% of Ford ECUs and get access to more functions than the official Ford dealer scan tool. You read that right: FORScan has capabilities that are locked out in the proprietary software used at Ford dealerships.

Electronic switching allows access to advanced functions such as simultaneously reading parameters from ECUs on different CAN networks and initializing some modules (e.g., “Remote Keyless Entry and Start”). OBDLink switches seamlessly between HS-CAN, MS-CAN, and J1850 Ford networks. “No switch” means no worries about messing things up if you accidentally transmit on the wrong network.

VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY

OBDLink MX+ OBD2 Diagnostic Scan Tool works with all 2006 & newer model year cars and light trucks sold including all American, European, and Asian vehicles.  Most newer non-U.S. vehicles are compliant with the OBD-II standards.

Installing USB drivers for OBDLink EX

Most of the time, OBDLink EX installation is a smooth process: the USB drivers should install automatically as soon as you plug it in.
Unfortunately, certain laptop models feature a non-compliant USB 3.0 controller which sometimes causes problems for our customers.
If you receive “USB not recognized” or similar error messages, try one of the following solutions:

  1. Plug OBDLink into a different USB port
  2. Connect OBDLink via a USB 2.0 hub
  3. Manually install the FTDI USB drivers

If none of the above solutions work, please contact OBDLink Support.
