GEN 2 OBDLink MX and similar code reader

[smurfslayer]

Anyone using one of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JFRFJG6/?tag=fordraptorforum-20

or something like it?

this one and several others can interface with a bunch of apps to read some of the sensor data. I already have Forscan and a win doze tablet, but wanted to have one that could display some useful real time data like IAT, etc.

I have this one. It works fine on everything I've tried it on from 2010 to 2019 Fords. Has the switch for both HS and MS CAN bus access.

Wireless is OK for using it as a gauge/datalogging setup, but I'd only do programming changes with the wired option.

I have the MX+.
I've been using since April when I got my Truck.
Overall I'm a fan. It reads all modules and codes and it's damn simple to use. Only pairs with one Bluetooth device at a time, so if you do work on a laptop then want to use Torque or something you have to repair the device.
the ONLY problem is that when I have it plugged in I occasionally get weird vehicle errors.
they are not predictable nor are they repeatable. However, every time I remove the device, said errors go away.
I don't know if that is a Raptor sensitivity thing or and MX+ thing but I can say in the same time period i've used the MX+ on my Infiniti with NO problems.

Hey.
So...are you able to show me or send images on how you do it . Because I have the same (Obdlink MX+) and I don't really understand how to program it. I have a 2017 Raptor.
Thanks

I have this one, just got it for my birthday:

BlueDriver LSB2 Bluetooth Pro OBDII Scan Tool for iPhone & Android

It has it's own APP and works well with a bunch of options to display.

I used a Scangauge 2 on my other vehicles, but this far outshines the scangauge.

I'm happy to try and help, but I need a little more info.
Are you asking for Forscan help? or are you asking for OBDLink MX+ help?
Or just a generic "WTH?" kind of help?

Well. Both. I have all the spreadsheets info related to Ford Raptor. So I'm learning . But I don't understand the videos related to Forscan because doesn't look similar to the ones I get from the car using Obdlink Mx+.
