  • Flawless
I wanted a wired adapter so I purchased this one based on the recommendation of the FORscan website. I'm so glad I did. Flawless performance. Drivers installed automatically. Connected to vehicle and got the green light as soon as I powered up the laptop. Initialized the FORscan program and the rest was a piece of cake. Very fast data transfer. No HS/MS-CAN switches to flip. Vehicle recognized and all modules showed up. Great feeling when no DTC codes appeared. Did one mod on my 2019 F-150 truck that has been bugging me for years. As far as I'm concerned, that one alone was worth the price of the adapter. I have a few more mods to try. Eager to explore some other features of the FORscan program. ... show more

  • Absolutely awesome! Saved me a HUNDREDS of dollars!!!! Absolutely awesome! Saved me a HUNDREDS of dollars!!!!
My 2020 Mustang has stiff suspension. The adaptive cruise uses a radar sensor that has two ball mounts and a singled lower bolt bracket. One of the ball mounts popped loose pushing the sendsor out of place which disabled adaptive cruise and automatic emergency braking. Quickly diagnosed the issue with the scanner. --- Then applied for a 2 month free extended license (just search "forscan support request" copy in your scanner ID and they'll give you a 2 month trial!) --- - With the extended license I was able to run the Radar Alignment "Service" drove the car above 30mph for 5-10 minutes and the "Radar is not aligned" message disappeared!!! Service successful! and I've driven it a few times and the Adaptive Cruise works perfectly! --- --- This $70 it saved me a trip to a radar servicing center or worse a dealership that would've charged me HUNDREDS on top of costing me time which is precious! --- Compatible with most Ford Vehicles 1996+ (including mazda, lincoln & mercury) Installed the forscan software on a Windows 11 laptop and it worked perfectly. It provided perfect information I needed to resolve my issue. Connected via USB 2.0 just fine and was recognized immediately The software is easy to read and understand. ... show more

  • Gold standard
OBDLink EX FORScan – The Gold Standard for Ford Diagnostics. As anyone who owns a Ford, Lincoln, or Mazda vehicle knows, having the right diagnostic tool can save you a fortune in dealership fees and countless hours of frustration. After hearing many recommendations, I finally invested in the OBDLink EX specifically for use with FORScan software, and I can confidently say it's been an absolute game-changer. Performance: Exactly What It Promised (and More!) This device delivered exactly what it was designed for. The connection with FORScan was rock-solid and instantaneous. There were no frustrating connection drops, no lag in data streaming, and no compatibility issues whatsoever. The speed at which it communicated with my vehicle's modules was impressive, allowing for real-time monitoring and quick diagnostics. I was able to diagnose and link with my computer no problem, accessing various modules, reading codes, and viewing live data with ease. This level of seamless integration and reliable performance is precisely what you need from a diagnostic tool, and the OBDLink EX provides it in spades. Value & Experience: Top-Tier All Around Beyond its exceptional performance, the overall experience with this product was fantastic. The price was very good, especially considering the professional-grade capabilities it unlocks when paired with FORScan. It's an investment that pays for itself many times over by enabling DIY diagnostics and even programming functions that would otherwise require expensive dealership visits. Adding to the positive experience was the fast shipping. The product arrived quickly and well-packaged, ready to use right out of the box. This efficiency always enhances customer satisfaction. No Complaints Whatsoever – A True Five-Star Product! Honestly, I have no complaints at all about the OBDLink EX. From its robust build quality to its flawless connection, excellent value, and rapid delivery, it hits every mark. It performs exactly as advertised, making complex vehicle diagnostics accessible and straightforward for the average user. For any Ford, Lincoln, or Mazda owner who wants to take control of their vehicle's health, perform in-depth diagnostics, or even unlock hidden features with FORScan, the OBDLink EX is the definitive tool. This is a five-star product through and through. It's not just a diagnostic tool; it's an empowerment tool for your garage. ... show more

  • Works with All Cars, Subscription is the Only Downside
This works great and connects without issues. One of the best things about it is that it works with pretty much all cars, which makes it really versatile. The only downside is the subscription for some features, but it does come with a free trial period to start, which helps. Overall, solid tool that does what it’s supposed to do. I’d still recommend it. ... show more

  • Awesome product
Genuine article and an absolute must for Ford owners wishing to use FORSCAN for enhanced diagnostics. I was very doubtful about this and the software so I started investigating. After many long sessions on the computer and much discussion with far younger “tuners” than my aged self, I was sold. Best decision I’ve made in a while. Fixed an intermittent fault with the ABS on my old Ranger pickup. Dealers said it was too old to fix. Just scrap it. Also found source of occasional fault in horn and cruise control circuit. If you work on your own Ford product you need this tool and the FORSCAN software. ... show more

  • Works great for ForScan and AlfaOBD
I am a professional automotive technician with 24 years of experience. I specialize in diagnostics. This item works great! I purchased this to use with my Android car stereo to have additional gauges using ForScan. It works well for that. I have never had an issue with battery drain over 4 years of use. The vehicle it's installed in gets used infrequently too, so the battery saver feature definitely works. I love having real time live data on the dash, from all modules. The first unit I ordered never arrived. Amazon took care of that. The one that did arrive worked great. I installed it under my dash with an OBD2 splitter cable, then plugged the USB into the stereo. For the last several months, connection has been spotty. If eventually stopped connecting altogether. I finally pulled it out today to see if this interface or the stereo were the culprit. The power light stays off on the OBDLink, even after disconnecting and reconnecting it. Sadly ot has died, just outside of the generous 3 year warranty. 4 stars for the death right outside of warranty. However, I'm here buying another. 9/15/25 Update This item has been revised since my 2021 purchase. It still works well. The powersaving feature when not in use still works as well. There is 1 caveat to my particular setup though. (ATOTO A6 performance running ForScan.) The first OBDLink wouldpower up and work fine from a sleep state. Occasionally, it would take a couple tries, but would work. This revision makes me disconnect both ends of the device, then reconnect it. Otherwise I can not get it to work and the LED is red. This is not convenient for a setup installed under the dash on a splitter cable. My workaround was to rewire the leg of the splitter cable to have IGN+ on pin 16, rather than B+. Benefits with this setup are that there is no doubt that your battery will not be drained by this unit. It also seems to connect to ForScan more reliably on startup. By using the splitter cable, the OBD port for diagnostic tools to connect to is unaffected by this change. Downside is that this adds an additional later of difficulty to an install like mine. Overall, if you're using this device in a setup like this, then this modification is probably trivial to you. I still recommend the device, and will likely put one in any OBD2 equipped Ford I own. ... show more

  • A must-have for Ford EV owners—saved me hundreds!
This adapter has worked flawlessly on both my F-150 Lightning and my Mach-E. It easily paid for itself after the first use by allowing me to troubleshoot issues myself instead of heading to the dealer. Being able to access specific repair procedures is a huge bonus and a real money saver. It’s a 5-star tool for sure, though I do wish they offered a native USB-C cable option to match modern laptops without needing an adapter. ... show more

  • Works great. Works great.
ODBLink EX Forscan cable works great with Forscan program, easy to install, easy to use. Long cable and quality build adapter. Featuring a High and a Medium CAN bus at the same time, no need to switch. Able to clear the codes, program modules, and add extra features.
