FORScan forum

I can't understand why people scrimp on the most important part, especially if you are going to attempt to program modules.

Buy cheap, buy twice as they say (and hopefully not brick any modules on the way..)

Due to low attachment file size, the video is low quality.

If desired, can be seen in this link: https://youtu.be/zbmaNWp3xRo

DISCLAIMER: That's a link with the same video in high quality with the same content and with monetization enabled.

In FORScans opening post in this thread they have listed two protocols that FORScan needs, that the ELS27 clone makers have left out of these Chinese ELS27 clones and that is PWM/SCP/J1850 and ISO 9141 and if the vehicle you are connecting to is the 2003 Focus in your signature, it only has the the SCP and ISO Module trees! There will be no connection to this vehicle because there is nothing in these clones to connect to it with!

This is exactly the behaviour I would have expected from these Green board Red ELS27 lettered clones!

Thanks. Lucky me, I requested a refund and Aliexpress decided on my part. I sent the very same video I posted here as proof of "not working" and the seller replied "yes it does, if the customer [me] doesn't like it, he just send it back". But I insisted and got my money back and kept the adapter.

I now ordered the Vlinker FS by using the links posted in FORScan download page and I hope it does its job as it should.

Just seen this on Amazon UK but I don't recognise the brand "Juta" being associated with the Vlinker and thought these were made only by Vgate. If you can confirm the following is approved by Forscan. Thank you.
