I have bought a OBD2 Wifi connector from amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XRVYDMG/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_tai_2lkxAb...#immersive-view_1516052760812), I'm able to read the data from their app. But when I'm trying to read from Raspberry Terminal through netcat as specified in the blog (https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/61424/wi-fi-enabled-odbii-script) by passing the Mode (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OBD-II_PIDs) its not showing any result.

Please advice how to read the OBD2 data.

Thanks, PSA

  • This is a very broad question, unfortunately lacking a lot of details to be answered. What exactly happens, when you communicate through `netcat`? Can you show us a communication log? ELM327-compatible adapters need to be initialized using `AT` commands before you can communicate via `PIDS`, did you do that? – DrMickeyLauer Mar 04 '18 at 13:24

I was finally able to make this work. Had to make a virtual serial port ttyUSB0 with socat on raspbian stretch.

socat pty,link=/dev/ttyUSB0,waitslave tcp:192.168.0.10:35000&

Then I followed these instructions

python obd_gui.py
