Can you tell me which diagnostics to buy for my car.

The simplest is to buy an OBD reader - bluetooth. It can be connected to phone. Download Torque Pro application.

 

Otherwise Forscan in a laptop computer with a special wire that it can be connected to OBD.

FORScan is the best by a long way, either the Phone or the Laptop version.  https://forscan.org/download.html

which obd do you think i should buy, is it possible for you to write or send me a picture. I had ELM327 version 1.5 - WORKS but it says not for my car, so I wanted to buy another one, which is compatible with my car, can you tell me which one to get

You have already been advised to use FORScan which is free and which you say you already have on your laptop so why would you want to pay for something that won't be able to read all Ford codes on both the HS and MS can buses? You won't get anything better. If you're saying you have an old version of FORScan just download the latest version.

Everything a Ford owner will need for diagnostics:

FORScan (for use with Windows Laptop) : https://forscan.org/download.html

It's what many Ford owners use including some Ford technicians.

forscan is ok, but I think the device is not ok, I used this one, I think I should replace it and get another one. It opens everything for me, but before that it tells me that it is not the device for this car

You are correct. That lead is not capable of switching between the two different can buses. You need the one suggested by @unofix above.

UK eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225681548493?

UK OBD2 Shop: https://www.obd2shop.co.uk/wholesale/vgate-vlinker-fs-elm327-for-ford.html

UK Tunnelrat Electronics: https://tunnelrat-electronics.fwscart.com/product/vgate-vlinker-fs-usb

Probably best if you do not buy from Aliexpress, they have a lot of fake products.

Yes it will show the vehicles mileage or in kilometers.

Can I suggest you amend your profile to show you don't live in Kent, UK?

Also it would be much easier to read your posts if they were not in inverse video. On my browser they show as grey text against a black background.

Personally I would avoid this eBay seller. Although they claim the item is located in Manchester, UK they are in fact based in China. The item may be genuine or a Chinese fake. However it's your choice.

I believe Tunnelrat test all their cables before dispatch (at least they used to do so unless anyone knows otherwise).

I made changes to my account, if something else needs to be changed, please let me know. Now I don't know what to do with ordering on eBay?

Still inverse video. I doubt it's my browser as I don't experience this with posts from other members. It would be interesting to know if others on the forum are seeng the same as me. Maybe one of the moderators knows what needs to be changed.

Are you using a translator ?

If you are copying and pasting text from a translator like Google it can cause it to invert the video.

Само тестирам да видим да ли је видео обрнут

Користите преводиоца ?

Ако копирате и лепите текст од преводиоца као што је Гоогле, то може довести до инвертирања видеа.

Yes bro , google translate

I wrote the previous post by myself, without google translator 😁. Now I'm logged in and using google, it seems that when I copy, the background is black, but I can't change it
