## Description

Buy OBDLink EX FORScan OBD Adapter: Code Readers & Scan Tools - desertcart.com ✓ FREE DELIVERY possible on eligible purchases

Review: Flawless - I wanted a wired adapter so I purchased this one based on the recommendation of the FORscan website. I'm so glad I did. Flawless performance. Drivers installed automatically. Connected to vehicle and got the green light as soon as I powered up the laptop. Initialized the FORscan program and the rest was a piece of cake. Very fast data transfer. No HS/MS-CAN switches to flip. Vehicle recognized and all modules showed up. Great feeling when no DTC codes appeared. Did one mod on my 2019 F-150 truck that has been bugging me for years. As far as I'm concerned, that one alone was worth the price of the adapter. I have a few more mods to try. Eager to explore some other features of the FORscan program.
Review: Great ODB cable for use with FORSCAN - I got this to use with the FORSCAN app on my 2023 F150. It is compatible and worked great. I was able to easily load the required drivers on my DELL laptop by following the included instructions. This allows me to do factory technician level diagnostics, and adjust settings through the FORSCAN interface. This is a great cost savings for those who are computer literate.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it work through a usb2.0 hub? (Obviously yes but upvote this to the top so people can see it and fix their problem!)**
A: Yes. Matter of fact: 
I could not get it to work when this was
connected directly to my laptop.
..After alot of investigation and stumbling...
I found a very small blurb mentioning usb hub
(2.0)...
Connected an old usb 1 to 4 and
Connected this to 1 of the 4 usb2.0 jack's
and viola!!
It work's!!

**Q: I have a windows 10 hp spectre and this device will not connect. the light stays red. any suggestions?**
A: Make sure you're connecting using a 2.0 USB port on your HP Spectre laptop.  The device is not recognized if plugged into a 3.0 USB drive.  I had the same problem on my Dell, luckily it's got 2x3.0 USB ports and 1x2.0...  The company that makes this device doesn't make that clear on the packaging or super obvious on their website (though I did find that answer there).  I tried installing their drivers - WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE btw.  For me, plugged into the 2.0 USB port and Windows 10 recognized the device and got a Green Light on the device.  Worked as expected after that...  Good luck!

**Q: I can not get the drivers to work on windows 10. Does not install  Automatically and tried to down load at support site. What else can i do?**
A: I had some difficulty when first trying to install the OBDLink EX FORScan Adapter in my computers also. I went to this site https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP and downloaded the latest driver available on both of my computers (Windows 10 64 bit and an older Acer laptop with Windows 7 64 bit) Once the driver was installed, the EX adapter worked as it should. Now whenever I have the cable adapter connected to the computer, it shows a split second red light, then changes to yellow, then as soon as I connect it to the ODB II port on the car, it goes to green and it's ready to go.

**Q: will this work with other OBD 2 programs or only forscan?**
A: The OBDLink EX will work with any program that is compatible with ELM327.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ODB cable for use with FORSCAN

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best buy I have made this year!
*by G***C on June 9, 2026*

There are a lot of online videos of the FORScan App. If you own a 1996 or newer Ford, Lincoln, Mercury or most Mazdas, this is the best tool in the box. When the repair shop is charging over $200/hour labor, this pays for itself in one application and diagnoses. This scanner works with my Dell laptop and provides way more information when paired with the FORScan App. Not only does it read and modify codes but reports on things that do not trip your Check Engine Light. My 1998 Lincoln Town Car was experiencing a slight misfire that I could feel but it never gave a Warning light. By going into Mode 6 of the App, it identified which cylinder was the problem. It also allows you to change the factory settings, reprogram remotes, and monitor everything from brakes to your A/C compressor. This scanner when paired to the App gives you as much information as the scanner your dealer uses for a whole lot less time, and money. Best buy I have made this year!
