MAIN FEATURES • Fast OBD-II trouble code lookup • Support for P, B, C, and U code categories • Detailed descriptions of common diagnostic codes • Possible causes for frequently encountered faults • Recognition of generic and manufacturer-specific codes • Built-in offline code database • Additional web search option • Clear and easy-to-use interface • Automatic detection of the device language • Manual language selection saved between sessions SUPPORTED LANGUAGES English, Polish, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Dutch, Italian, Czech, Lithuanian, and Latvian. The built-in database works without requiring an account. For manufacturer-specific codes, the exact meaning may depend on the vehicle make, model, year, engine, and control module. Elm327 WiFi Codes is a reference and code lookup application. The current version does not connect directly to an ELM327 adapter and does not read or clear codes from a vehicle. Diagnostic trouble codes indicate the system in which a fault was detected. They do not always identify the exact component that must be replaced. Verify the result using appropriate vehicle diagnostics and service information.
