  1. Hi guys,

    I guess this is a dumb question, but I can't find the ODB port, can anyone tell me where it is?

    Br,

  2. If it's like the R26 it will be at the bottom of the centre console infront of the gear stick.

    Will be behind a plastic panel.

    I could be wrong though :tongueout:
     
  3. Centre console under the radio, plastic panel that pulls off. It's held on very firmly as the two clips are massive over kill to hold it on.

  4. Hi, yes I found it but I can't get the darn thing off..
     
  5. I did so carefully using a thick allen key as a hook. Like I say, very stiff, massive overkill, usual Renault they put massive clips to hold a small panel on but fiddly little clips that break at the drop of a hat on anything else.
     
  6. It's their anti remap system :wink:
     
  7. This is an absolute ballache to get off, took me ages and sliced my hands to bits lol...
     
  8. Yes I finally got it off.. took a screwdriver and with some force I managed to get one corner out and so on.. luckily I didn't break the thing :smile: Thanks for your help.
    Now is just part that my odb reader doesn't seem to be working.. nothing happens when I connect it..
     
  9. Have you pressed the start button? without starting the car.
     
  10. No I haven't. I will try this.

     
  11. 100% agree!

    But this doesn't matter regarding performances of the car!
     
  12. I can't get the odb meter to work.. going to have plug it in to another car and see if it works there.
     
  13. Put the keycard in the slot and while in gear press and hold the start button without the clutch down. The car will turn the ignition on without starting the engine. You will get a message on the screen along the lines of "remove keycard".

    This is the same technique we have to use while remapping via the ODB port.
     
  14. Thanks, I will try this when I get home.
     
  15. Are they compatable with android and also megane 3?
     
  16. yup
     
  17. It'll arrive with a plastic moulding that reads 'made in china', probably over the road from the ones above.

    It's your money though...
     
  18. Here's some info:
    STN1110 (ODBLink LX -> uses the STN1110 chip) is the world’s smallest, lowest cost multiprotocol OBD to UART interpreter IC. It provides an easy means of accessing vehicle data, including diagnostic trouble codes, MIL status, VIN, Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) information, In-use Performance Tracking (IPT), and hundreds of real-time parameters. To maintain compatibility with existing applications, STN1110 has full support for the ELM327 command set, while outperforming the original ELM327 IC in every category: stability, performance, and features.

    So the the cheaper ones use the old elm327 chipset while ODBLink LX uses the STN1110 chipset
