JhonnyD It ist not just ELM327. It has to be named OBD2 or OBDII. Or else you can not pair it. You can try with your phone how the OBD dongle is named because you can pair everything with a phone, even nameless devices.
Christian_S Hi guys, I may have a solution for your problem. First, you have to tell what device you have. My solution was tested for 7862. Check with explorer /fem/app/ config.txt what value has in line sys.fyt.bluetooth. If you have it set to 0, then proceed to next step Get script for modifying bluetooth mod, is somewherw in the forum Modify lsec7862.sh and write value of 1 at the end of the line beginning with “sed -e …. Put everything along with config.txt on a clean pendrive and flash it. I had same problem, my blootooth device list was empty despite selecting elm327 category. Hope this helps, Cheers
caolz hafiz_tahir Can you find OBD devices in your phone's Bluetooth device list? Setup>System>Bluetooth, can OBD devices be found here?
jamar Well, if the OBD dongle has to be named OBDII, wouldn't be better to just remove this name filter from the device selection dialog? This will enable us to at least try some other and better dongles than those most and worst generic ones...
drivedynamix Yes, this a recurring issue, ELM OBD is not recognized and the headunit will not connect to it. I'll be happy to share any screenshot or video of the same.
