FIXD OBD2 Scanner
How does the FIXD app tell me if my car is safe to drive?
The app's main screen shows a big colored circle—green, yellow, or red—along with a health score. This simple design lets you know at a glance whether it's safe to drive to the store without needing to understand complex graphs or numbers.
Can I use FIXD to track maintenance for multiple cars?
Yes, you can add multiple vehicles to your account and monitor them all from one phone. The app also sends maintenance reminders, like when your next oil change is due, so you don't have to remember everything yourself.
What should I do if the FIXD app takes a long time to connect to the sensor?
This can happen occasionally, especially after an app update on Android phones like the Pixel 7. Try restarting the app, making sure your phone's Bluetooth is on, and reinserting the sensor into the OBD2 port to re-establish the connection.
Can I clear a check engine light myself after fixing the problem?
Yes, once you've fixed the issue—like tightening a loose gas cap—you can clear the diagnostic code right inside the app. It's satisfying to see the light go off and stay off without needing a trip to the mechanic.
How does FIXD compare to getting a diagnostic at a repair shop?
FIXD gives you the same type of code reading and description that a shop would, but instantly and for free after you buy the scanner. For example, it can tell you a small evaporative leak is just a loose gas cap, saving you a $150 diagnostic fee for something you can fix yourself.
