You drive a Toyota because it simply does what it needs to do: reliably get you from A to B. But sometimes you want a little more. Turn off an annoying beep, quickly air out your car on a hot day, or find out why that light is on yourself. You don’t need an expensive dealer visit for that. With OBDeleven, you connect your Toyota to your phone and handle it yourself. Below you’ll read what it can do: read codes, view live data, and activate some handy hidden features.
What is OBDeleven?
OBDeleven is a small adapter that you plug into the OBD2 port of your Toyota, under the dashboard. It connects via Bluetooth to the free app on your phone (iOS and Android). You don’t need a laptop or an expensive workshop computer. For Toyota (and Lexus), you use it for diagnostics and for a number of ready-made One-Click Apps.
Diagnostics: reading fault codes and live data
This works on almost every Toyota and is free in the app. You can read and clear fault codes, and view live data such as temperature, RPM, and sensor values. Is the check engine light on? Then you immediately see what’s wrong before going to the garage. Often this saves unnecessary costs and uncertainty.
Hidden features you can activate on your Toyota
Besides diagnostics, OBDeleven offers a number of One-Click Apps for Toyota and Lexus: ready-made adjustments you can turn on or off with one tap, no coding knowledge required. The most popular:
Driver seatbelt signal · turn the seatbelt warning tone for the driver’s seat on or off (on supported models).
Passenger seatbelt signal · do the same for the passenger seat, useful for sensitive seat sensors or if you’re carrying something on the seat.
Open windows with the key · open your windows remotely with the key fob or door handle, ideal for airing out your car on a hot day.
Note: OBDeleven is continuously expanding the offerings for Toyota. What exactly is available for your car depends on your model, year, and equipment.
How does it work?
- Plug the OBDeleven adapter into the OBD2 port of your Toyota, open the app, and log in.
