Hi
I have a Usb Elm327 which I can connect to using the Android app of Forscan
software connects to the device but then when connecting to Ranger 2017 Wildtrak an error message is shown

saying:-
unable to connect to vehicle ------ if PCM has a custom tune installed please enter the strategy/calabration name or part number of factory PCM (ex.5l3a-12a650-ayh)
if i cancel still no connection

any ideas
thanks
Andrew

My guess would be that the dongle isn't compatible.

You may need a dongle available from this site, just wait for Stewart to reply.
