I just bougth Torgue Pro and a OBS scanner for my 1995 truck.


Thought it might plug into the connector under the dash just to the right of the trans hump, to read the fault codes and clear them. Had an issue with the CEL


I guess I just Pi$$ away my money

 

So it does or does not plug in?

I know nothing about torque but there are some very knowlegable guys here on that subject.

 

Are you saying it wont read codes? or the actual connection don't fit?
If its not reading you have to take it to a dealer to get the ecu reflash to make it obdII compliant.

 

Even if it's been flashed, it's not exactly plug-and-play. If you're not a member over at "the Nation", you should join up there, and check out the "Torque Pro Android for OBS" thread (or some similar name) in the OBS section there. There's a fair amount of setup to do, but in the end, since you already have a device to install it on, it's cheaper than the "traditional" devices used to communicate with our trucks.

 

Where does it plug in on a 1995 ford? The port where I thought it would go is a square and this thing I have is kind of square oval shape..


I just felt of the plug under the dash....I did not try to plug it in/

 

Take a look. It should plug in. Yea passenger side of the hump

 

Some of the connectors point aft, toward the passenger, and some point downward. No idea why. One of ours was pointed downward (I re-mounted it pointing toward the passeger). Yours might be one that's pointed downward.

 

How about posting a picture

 

My plug on the truck is a perfect rectangle and is pointed down at the floor


I just went out to the truck and plugged in the OBS thing. I got a red light that says power.


As I plug it in I see a yellow light flash then a green light, only the red light stays on


My I-pad says ...Not connected


I have tried it about 5 times now


Now what???

 

Never mind Guys


I got about as business with this stuff as **** on a boar hog.


I do not understand one thing about this thing...I read 32 pages on PSN about the OSB stuff...Did not understand one small bit of it


So don't waste your time here with me


Thanks anyway


Joey

 

Your truck's made of OSB?.... KIDDING....

Look back over there on PSN, on that thread; maybe there's a member who's gotten Torque Pro to work, who lives near you, and can help you directly with yours. That's the beauty of these forums, even though they're global, you can make local connections.

 

It might as well be OSB. That is as far as I have gotten....LMAO


I can not get it to connect to my tablet....I have been hunting for a blue tooth connection for the last 2 hrs on this tablet....None seen


under the torque app it says it is not connected
it does not know the scanner tool.....Vgate Bluetooth scanning tool
I bought this one because I saw pictures of it on this site and PSN


My tablet is a android 4.4.2 ever what that means

 

Plug the BT dongle into your truck.
On your tablet go to your Bluetooth settings and find the option to pair with a device.
The PIN code is usually 0000, 1111, or 1234.
Once you've paired your tablet with the BT dongle, then go to the Torque Pro App. It should connect.

 

(On your tablet go to your Bluetooth settings and find the option to pair with a device)


That is the main issue. I can not figure out how to do that....Been trying all day
looking at youtube...Torque app....settings on I pad


The Ol' Truck is running OK now....But I would like to know what the CEL was on for if it had nothing to do with the vacuum pump going out


OH Well

 

It seems like you are unfamiliar with your tablet, not problems with Torque.

Android 4.4.X is the operating system of your tablet AKA KitKat.
Here are some instructions on how to pair a new Bluetooth device on Android KitKat
HP Tablets - Connecting to Bluetooth Devices (Android KitKat, Jelly Bean) | HP® Customer Support

When you are searching for devices, make sure the OBDII reader is plugged into the truck and the key is on (don't have the engine running). once it pairs it will ask for a pin it is usually 0000, 1111, or 1234 as cowmilker said.
