Description

OBDLink EX

The OBDLink EX is a USB adapter built specifically for FORScan. If you're working on Fords  or Mazdas and need proper module access, this is the adapter the FORScan team itself recommends over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi options. It plugs straight into a laptop and gives you a stable wired connection for module programming, PMI (Programmable Module Installation) and full network diagnostics.


Key Features & Highlights

  • Built for FORScan, not a generic ELM327: Electronic switching between HS-CAN, MS-CAN and the legacy J1850 network happens automatically. No toggle switch, no guessing which position matches which module.

  • Stable enough for module programming: A wired USB connection holds steady during PMI, BCM replacement, key programming and other flash procedures where a Bluetooth dropout costs you the job.

  • Full module access: Reads and clears codes across engine, transmission, ABS, SRS, BCM, PCM and other Ford and Mazda specific modules that a generic OBD2 scanner can't reach.

  • Fast: Up to 20 times quicker than the old toggle-switch USB adapters. No lag scrolling through PIDs or waiting on module scans.

  • BatterySaver mode: Draws under 1 mA in sleep mode, so it's safe to leave plugged in permanently without flattening the battery.

  • 12V and 24V compatible: Covers light commercial Ford and Mazda utes as well as passenger vehicles.
