AU2/3 you limited to a degree, but i can't say how much. BA/BF i have just started on. have reset faults & done the two keys. there is more you can do but i'm limiting myself so i don't change a wrong setting lol. the swith is for changing from one system level to another (not a really good explanation i know) altho i think i read somewhere that it needs to work seamesly (but that might have been for FG?) i did mod one awhile back & didn't seem to do anything ? but i'm still new at this. hopefully someone with a lot more knowledge will chime in and fill in blanks. also go to forscan web site & have a look around |

Instead of making a new forum I'll just add to this topic/post I have an AUII V8 ute and I have an ELM327 cord that connects to the car and forscan but I can't seem to find the "mode 6" test to sus out misfires etc
The ELM I have doesn't have a switch on the side of it like most (I had to buy from ob2australia website as I got suckered into a clone knock off from ebay) it only shows four tests but I've seen other videos and posts with more options... is it a AU thing not having 'real' OBD2 setup or is it the cord not having the correct connections in it?

No switch? I just got one from OBD2Australia today, its got the switch. Sadly, Goolge Play store has axed the Forscan app as of last Sunday for not offering anything new compared to like apps. https://forscan.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=15224 Anyone got a copy of a working apk?

My mistake I ordered the wrong one apparently and that apk I googled it and found a few sites that are current as of Jan 2020 not sure if that helps you in this instance
