Thinkcar | THINKDIAG OBD2 Scanner Bluetooth, Ideal Diagnostic Scan Tool for Coding, Bi-Directional Control, 16 Special Functions, All Systems Diagnosis, Same as 2000-Bucks Auto Scanner

Since having this obd2 reader for about one week, all my maintenance work get done smoothly. I used this tool in conjunction with the thinkdiag app, and it is great to be able to see live data while driving.Of course, I was a little skeptical about if this scanner would work since my vehicle was kind of old, so I asked. The sellers gave me an answer in time and guaranteed that it would work for my car.Anyway, after I got it, I plugged it in, and download the app, and it worked flawlessly with no issues so far. It gave me an error code “p2647” with explanation. Not a big issue, and the problem could be easily fixed, my mechanic friend said to me and the truth it was! The amazing thing is that THINKDIAG is capable of doing the same work as much more expensive scanners do. Happy to get it.

Refuses to communicate with my vehicle.When I plug it in. The green light illuminates. I try to connect. Light turns blue for a few seconds, "connecting"...Then a pop-up says suggestion: "dlicense fail"And at that point, it stops the connection attempt and that's as far as ive got thus farThen I paid another 39.99 to test my other car, and what do u know? Same issue.No clear support contact info to get help.This company has like 3+ of the sMr app in almost exactly the same name. (Thinkdiag. Thinkdiag+, thinkcar, and a few other believe it or not)The manual / instructions say to install thinkdiagDo I went to the app store and search.There was no sign of any "thinkdiag"Only "thinkfiag+".(same company name of thinkcar)So I install that, registered, activated the device using the included serial # codes.It shows its linked to my acc.I try connecting, "dlicense fail" every time.So I went back and reread instructions, and saw it said thinkdiag not thinkdiag+I thought maybe that was the issue, but there no thinkdiag in the app store...So I searched online for a apk download of "thinkdiag" and found it. Installed, signed in.My same login info from the first app surprisingly worked.But under my devices, my scanner is not listed.So I try entering my activation code #s on this 2nd app, and get a error "not a valid serial # tdy again"Guys I have a bachelors degree in software development and I have yet to get this working.Thats not to say every car will create these same issues, but I've tried it on my '08 BMW M3, and my 2012 VW Jetta,and both vehicles give an error "dlicense fail"Which I assume is due to activating through thinkdiag+ instead of thinkdiag.However the regular thinkdiag app, (non "+") is no where to be found in the app store, so without extremely clear instructions, have 3+ of almost the exact same software, which all share the same login info, but don't share device activation status is extremely aggravating.Cant even find a way to contact these ppl besides a phone number which appears to be disconnected, and an email which I have received no reply from so far.I'll wait another 24 hours, then this thing is getting returned to whatever third world it came from

easy to use and a very usefull tools for diy.value for your money..i brought 1 dongle and after a couple of weeks the dongle stop working so i contacted the amazon and they replace with a new dongle...i just recieve the replacement yesterday... and i send also the old dongle.the tech support is very responsive for all of my concern..thanks....

Hard to find out how to use

I am a mechanic at a dealership and needed a bidirectional scanner for other makes and this fit the bill. I won’t be using it everyday but I also won’t have to pay for makes I’m not using since I don’t see them a lot but I do need to have it readily available. Very happy so far with it!

I replaced the ignition lock on my Honda accord. Consequently needed to reprogram the immobilizer. The Thinkdaig TKD01 unit has a function to do that, however I kept getting an error message. (tried about 20 times!) Contacted tech support, they asked me to take screen shots of the issue. I spent 2 hours running through every step and documenting action taken, then sent email off to them, no response. Called them 2 times, still no response. its been over 2 months and my car is still sitting in the driveway now waiting for a lock smith to show up. Non-existent tech support, The devise is now beyond the return window so I'm out $105. Don't waist your time with this devise.

Amazing device I messed around with t settings for my. Vehicle a little and even got better fuel economy

I bought this product because I liked the fact it was Bluetooth based snd thought it would be easy and reliable. It was, until I upgraded my phone. The app kept asking my to re-register the unit, yet wouldn’t accept the serial number or activation number provided in the box. I have been communicating with two separate support avenues provided for 2 weeks now and nothing has been done about the issue. I either want this replaced or a refund.I’m over it
