Hey all,

 

In the last couple days I've seen a wrench light twice, with the useless message "see manual".  I need am OBD reader and was wondering what your recommendations are?  I recall one model someone said doesn't play well with the Energi's so I'd like to hear the good and the bad for the different models.

 

TIA.

Any of the OBDLink models and use Forscan on the software side. Best combo for Ford vehicles. If all you want to do is read codes, you can go a little cheaper and get a generic Bluetooth/USB OBD adapter on Amazon/eBay. I'd recommend finding one that can read MS-CAN as well so you get full coverage of modules.

 

EDIT: Here's a thread on the Forscan forums detailing their recommended adapters. They have a few tables listing out the OBDLink models and what's recommended for various tasks: https://forscan.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6142
