hey guys,

decided i would try and assess my CEL codes and try to fix the issue myself, i have grabbed a ELM327 of a fellow OH member. it looks like this!



this is where i have tried to plug it in.

under the steering wheel, on the left of the foot well.





my question is for anyone with experience in this product or very similar,

it keeps asking me to "configure a COM port for the bluetooth connection"!

Q- why would i need a bluetooth connection if it has a direct usb connection??

Q-is this connection the right one, and if so, is meant to be a very snug fit?? i almost have to force it on!

Q- what is the best software to use for reading the CEL codes??


any help would be much appreciated!

cheers
