Hi guy's, just took my XK out of hibernation and fitted the display. Unfortunately my OBD11 sender unit ELM327 ( https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-WiFi-....c101195.m1851 ) is an old one about four or five years old and the display cannot connect with it. Is my unit the wrong one? Which ELM327 units are you all using?
Thanks for any advice.
Please ignore above, have found the answer inside the thread.

No other updates available.....
on the other hand, I developed a device which runs on a lithium-ion battery due to the lack of a cig lighter in my car.
If there are more folks who have connection issues, I could update the software with a version which increases the time interval of data requests from the ELM.
Currently it is set to ~400 milliseconds.

Hi guy's, sorry to bring this up again but do not want to get the wrong unit again, it seems there are three variants to the Vgate Icar from what I see on Aliexpress. One is Bluetooth v4 for Ios and Android, 2) Wi-Fi V2.2 for Ios and Android, 3) Bluetooth V3 for Android only. I am confused and think the one I sent back may have just been the wrong one. Here is a link which lists the 3 different types, Vgate iCar Pro ELM327 OBD2 Scanner Bluetooth 4.0 WIFI ELM327 V2.2 For Android/IOS ELM 327 V2.2 OBD2 Car Diagnostic Auto Tool|Code Readers & Scan Tools| - AliExpress any advise would be much appreciated or a link to where the correct unit can be purchased.
Kind regards,
Arty

Everything you need is on Bob's website - even the correct file for the 3D printing for the housing.
