ELM327 Bluetooth OBDII Scanner thing

[JudgeM]

Hello everyone,

I would like to get your experiences on the ELM327 OBDII scanners. I just bought a couple (yes the cheap ebay clone ones, but seller assures that they are good quality and work well) . I am having some trouble pairing it up to my Vitz.

I have the Torque pro app and some Scantool app on my computer. Now they both detect the adapter with no problem, but I cannot get any information from the ECU. There's not much information on the web about these adapters so I checked here and some of you have experience with these.

I saw a video on youtube of someone who used this with their Yaris and it was working quite well.

So, my problem is that I cant read anything from the ECU. The app and bluetooth connection seems fine, but I can't get any readings (RPM, speed etc). Any suggestions on what I should try with settings or anything else ? I am really keen to get this to work. Also if the adapters are faulty I want to return them then.

I've got a 2005 Vitz RS 1.5 JDM spec.

Thanks.

here's that link for youtube video:
