This utility allows users to monitor the status of various car components through the standard on-board diagnostic (OBD) protocol.

The application requires an OBD2 adapter to function and is compatible with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth ELM327 adapters. It is important to note that ScanMyOpel is not intended for vehicles that employ a different on-board network or protocol, which limits its applicability to a specific range of Opel models. Overall, this software provides a practical solution for those needing to diagnose and maintain their Opel vehicles efficiently.

During actuator tests it is possible to monitor livedata parameters. Actuator test lasts 30 seconds, then it stops automatically. User can stop test at any time before 30 seconds expired.

The app requires a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth OBD2 ELM327 compatible adapter to work.

Recommended ELM327 adapters brands: OBDLinkMX (best), Viecar, V-Gate, Carista, LELink, Veepeak or any ELM327 compatible with v1.4.

If you are going to buy one of the cheap china OBD2 ELM327 clones from ebay / amazon, then make sure it is not v.2.1. These adapters have very limited functionality and most likely will not work with our application.

Some info about ELM327 interfaces:

Also, in case of any issues it is possible to save log and forward it on info@opel-scanner.com for troubleshooting. Log creating can be enabled from the application menu. Log files will be stored on the SDCard in "ScanMyOpel" folder.

Attention!!

The ELM 327 adapetr uses only pin 7, so in order to benefit all features of ScanMyOpel application, please connect together pins 7, 3 and 12 in the ELM327 adapter and you will be able to connect to other modules, like AT, ABS, ...

Please try our free Lite version to see if your car is being supported properly BEFORE purchasing the full version.
