Hey lads

i recently got an elm327 wifi and connected it up and it worked. The problem is each time I turn the ignition to 'on', I have to pull out the elm327 from the obd port and plug in again otherwise the phone won't register the device. Is this what is meant to happen? Or is this a problem with the device

As I wouldn't want to be having to do it every time I get in the car.

Thanks for an assistance offered

Sorry I should have added I'm using it with iPhone 6 and dash command app

Thanks

I'm surprised it works at all
I'd get an obdii extension cable and find the power wire using a continuity test probe.
Then wire it to a switch or relay to simulate the replugging scenario...
Maybe google around that as you'd not be alone with the issue...

Yeah I've tried asking Mr Google but couldn't come up with anything. Not sure if anyone with a Bluetooth version has the same issue?? If that is more favourable I'll try do a swap with the place I got it from

Thanks for the reply aswell bigbadbenny

Ive got a Bluetooth ELM327 working with Torque Pro on my Galaxy S3, it works all day everyday i leave it plugged in wile car is parked over night no problems in the mornings either

Thanks for the info madman

Bluetooth seems like the go as most people have that. Id have to change phones but as iPhone won't work receiving info via Bluetooth
