Caught the Bug
Just found out about this from my boss who is putting one in his motorhome, but thought it was pretty slick and some of you guys/gals may be interested...
You can get a bluetooth OBD2 reader (ELM 327 mini seems to be the best from what I have read) $12
Get Torque Pro ($4.95 on google play)
You can monitor just about anything your on board diagnostics spits out, check engine codes, clear them etc...
Tans temp, coolant temp, oil pressure, instantaneous MPG, calculated MPG etc etc
I dont have any of this stuff yet, so cant confirm that it works on a JK, but can only assume that it does.
My boss got a cheapo Galaxy 7" tablet for like $140 to run this and gps etc...
Sounds like a pretty good setup to me. Can use the tablet to run GPS, waypoints etc... then have the torque app with your customized screens spit out all kinds of crap you may be interested in.
This video is relatively informative even though the guy is kinda a goof...
From what I have read these bluetooth OBD devices dont work with Ianything... unless jailbroke because apple wont give up the permissions, but to anyone with an android phone or tablet it may be pretty useful.
