(Tested) Mini ELM327 V1.5 Read and clear Mercedes W221 DTC fault codes

Hi to all! I wrote this blog simply because I recently tested this Mini ELM327 V1.5 OBD2 Bluetooth diagnostic scanner OK to read and clear DTC fault codes for my Mercedes w221! Below I will show you how I did that.
Two things you first know:
  1. This Mini ELM327 V1.5 is a 16 pin OBD2 connector. So I plugged it into my car’s OBD2 port then turn ignition on.

  1. It is compatible with Torque Pro. So I downloaded the app before use it.

  1. Now I will show you how I read& clear W221 fault codes.
First, I go to Setting then click Bluetooth, search and find ELM327 Bluetooth named “OBDII”. It asks me to enter pairing password and says I can try 0000 or 1234. I input 1234 and pairing successful.

By the way, I bought this $8 little plug-in scanner just for fun but I must say is worth every penny! I haven’t tested it on other cars, but at least my w221 bimmer works well!
