Comprehensive OBD2 Diagnostic Features
The inCarDoc OBD2 adapter is packed with features designed to empower you with deep insights into your car’s operation.
Instant Fault Code Scanning and Resolution
One of the most critical features is the ability to scan and clear OBD2 fault codes. The dreaded “check engine light” can cause anxiety, but with the inCarDoc adapter, you can quickly identify the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) causing the alert. Not only can you read these codes, but you can also clear them after addressing the issue, turning off the check engine light and giving you peace of mind. The freeze-frame data feature provides a snapshot of your car’s parameters at the moment a fault code was triggered, aiding in more accurate diagnosis.
Detailed Logbook for Diagnostic Data
The inCarDoc OBD2 adapter and app allow you to maintain a detailed logbook of your car’s diagnostic data. This functionality saves historical OBD2 data, including fault codes and performance parameters, enabling you to track recurring issues or monitor the effectiveness of repairs over time. You can even send diagnostic reports via email, making it easy to share information with your mechanic or keep records for your car maintenance history.
Advanced Mode 06 Data Access
For users who require more in-depth diagnostics, the inCarDoc OBD2 adapter provides access to Mode 06 data. This advanced feature allows you to delve into detailed diagnostic information, going beyond standard fault codes for enhanced troubleshooting and a deeper understanding of your vehicle’s internal systems.
Real-Time Parameter Monitoring
Beyond fault codes, the inCarDoc OBD2 adapter excels in real-time monitoring of your vehicle’s dynamic parameters.
Live Data at Your Fingertips

This live data stream from your car’s sensors gives you an immediate understanding of how your vehicle is performing under various driving conditions. This is incredibly useful for both performance monitoring and identifying potential issues as they develop.
Customizable Charts for Data Visualization

Control and Analyze Fuel Consumption
