duffy1807 Posted October 24, 2017 Author Share Posted October 24, 2017 Also , after a new module with USB has been installed. am i correct to say the USB port wont even charge anything thats plugged into it because it needs changing on IDS first?

ToXIcG Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 If you get a Modified ELM 327 adapter like this one you should be able to do it yourself with forscan and you'll have a adapter for future use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USB port won't charge anything very well. Low amps. Better using the ***** lighter adapter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToXIcG Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 No problem, I was going to do the conversation myself because I have bluetooth hands free but not USB or bluetooth music but I decided to leave it for now as a module is like £80+ and I can just use the AUX for now.

duffy1807 Posted October 24, 2017 Author Share Posted October 24, 2017 try a scrap yard. i got my module for £30 (dont think the guy knew how much they were worth) i got the trim and the cable too for £25 so £55 plus £7 for this Elm 327. hopefully it all goes to plan. ill be selling my old module for around £45 so will get some of my money back too :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToXIcG Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I was going to try a scrapyard, just haven't havent been bothered to ring around or go and look yet, you got a pretty good deal there, The cheapest I've seen on eBay is £80 and they're £230 from fordpartsuk (bit ridiculous really but I guess it's because they aren't made anymore) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
