ELM 327 Bluetooth v1.5 OBD2 Interface Scanner (Blue/Orange) Original CD

Today I received my ELM 327 Bluetooth v1.5 OBD2 Car Interface Scanner (with a blue/orange label) from Hong Kong.

The label is the same as the one in the picture above. The package contains the interface and a software CD. The software in this CD is a total crap!

CD contents:
Bluesoleil_3.2_VoIP_Multilingual_070406
scantool_net113win
User manual.doc

Neither of these programs worked with the interface. The interface paired correctly when using windows bluetooth but it did not paired with Bluesoleil, it did not recognized the interface. Scantool_net113win is a 16bit color application! More chinese crap!

A link to the original CD contents packed in a zip file is available here: (46.6 MB)

I tested the OBD interface on a 2007 gasoline car with the software listed below, on a laptop with Windows 7. Only a few worked with this interface, but those worked very well.
