Hi guys, when ordering the ELM327 look for the latest version v2.2. And the Torque app, I think is just in Google Play Store, the Amazon Fire has Amazon apps, no Play Store, unless you want to install Google Play Store on the Amazon tablet: https://www.howtogeek.com/232726/how...n-fire-tablet/.

That may be harder than I thought, from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELM327
Would have to use this app to identify: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...entifier&hl=en

OK guys after researching these OBDII scanners, and ELM's website this afternoon, I'm thinking most if not all, in the $5-$15 range are incomplete knock-offs. I did find 2 companies (foreign) that basically guarantee their chips and boards are to ELM's specs.
1. totalcardisgnostics.com (Australia) ELM327 Bluetooth Auto Diagnostic Scanner: OBD Scan Tool for OBD2, OBDII Cars, Vans, Trucks
$37.00 plus tax and shipping
2. elm-327.eu (Romania) ELM-327.EU - Genuine ELM327 2.2 OBDII Interfaces
$57.92 plus tax and shipping
I'm curious, will anyone who buys a scanner please check it with the identifier app https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...entifier&hl=en, and see if it is the actual claimed version. And those who already own one, please check it also, and let us know, thank you.

That ID app. But all is well. I had to make the phone forget the ELM and start over. I'm not sure what the app said, as in I'm not sure what to look for. And as soon as I shut the van off, the screen cleared.
