Vgate iCar 2 | ELM327 Interface (WiFi)

The Vgate iCar 2 ELM327 Interface is a compact and user-friendly diagnostic tool for vehicles. This device connects to your vehicle's OBD2 port and communicates wirelessly via WiFi with your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. It is designed to provide access to onboard diagnostic data, enabling reading various vehicle parameters and identifying potential issues.

This ELM327 adapter offers functionality for reading and clearing diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), including generic and manufacturer-specific codes. Additionally, the Vgate iCar 2 can display real-time sensor data such as engine speed, speed, fuel consumption, and coolant temperature. The built-in intelligent sleep mode feature ensures low power consumption when the adapter is inactive, protecting the vehicle battery.

Application and functionality:

The Vgate iCar 2 ELM327 Interface is used for performing various diagnostic tasks and monitoring vehicle performance via a compatible app.
