OBD2 Fusion (GMC Suburban 1500)

[thebmrust]

I just bought an OBD2 Bluetooth adapter. I am using OBD2 Fusion from OCTech on my iOS phone.

I bought it primarily to observe transmission cooler temps.

But, there are obviously a LOT of other parameters to add to dashboards.

aaannnnd many don't work.
Specifically: (PID that do NOT work in my setup)
Air temp
Oil temp
Oil pressure
Fuel rates
Barometric presure
and several others.

As stated above, I have a 99 GMC Burb. Looking for others with similar setup so I can learn from and for those with different setups to share their hardware, OS, device, and software setup and experiences to compare so we all learn. Especially those who run tablets with OBD2 monitoring.

I did end up resetting the dashboards back to original, but I can't find a "reset app to defaults" (I'm sure I could delete and reinstall... I'll try that later today).

Anyone found a good wiki or website that has a good forum for working with Fusion? OCTech doesn't have any resources that I have found.

Also... is the current version of OBD2 Fusion the old (OBD2) Torque app that was only available for Android?

No one uses an OBD2 device or an app to read data?

I'm using an Ultragauge in my Hummer H3. I have it reading coolant, air intake, and transmission temperatures, as well as voltage, engine load, fuel economy info, trip mileage, and a few other things. Cheaper than a Scangauge, looks nicer with a much better display, and can display up to 8 gauge values on each page and it can cycle through several pages of gauges with individually controlled intervals per page.

Msybe try the Torque free version?
I use the paid version with a wifi adapter to my Droid.

When I search for "torque"
It ends up with "OBD Fusion" so I wonder if it's the new (same) version?

Maybe Torque isn't on IOS. I use it on android, it's one of the biggest of the OBD2 programs. It tracks most all of the sensors in my Toyota. I think there was one that didn't work but you can custom design your own sensor settings to read the OBD2 outputs. I found the correct settings online and was able to manually add the Toyota signal it didn't recognize.
