Diagram 1: Selecting the Correct FCX3

note ¹
Check Your 2006/07 Car:

To determine compatibility, use a flashlight to view the OBD connector under your dash.

If there is a terminal in position 7, (and positions 6 and 14 are empty), the R5/FCX3-16 or the R5/FCX3-U should work.
If postion 7 is empty, (with terminals in positions 6 and 14) the car is incompatible with our tool.

Pin 7 = "ISO". Pins 6 and 14 = "CAN"

We are presently developing a tool capable of CAN, which we will announce on this site when ready.
