Works Like a Charm,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: goPoint Technology GL1 OBD-II Accessory for iPhone/iPod/iPad (Electronics)
Just starting out as a DIYer, I'd been looking into code readers but was put off by the price of many scan tools that can do more than pull the trouble codes. I was skeptical about this at first and spent weeks searching the internet for reviews. Then my SES light went on after doing some work myself and I finally decided to purchase this little cable. I couldn't have been more pleased.
Why I love it: Totally easy plug and play technology. Plug it in to the OBD II port and the iPhone, turn on the car, the iPhone vibrates once it has made the connection, start the app. That's it. Awesome. Reads and clears DTCs. So instead of going to a mechanic and spending $50 for him or her to tell you you forgot to plug a sensor back in (or your gas cap is loose), you can find that out yourself. Scan your car and clear the codes twice and this thing has paid for itself. It DOES charge your iPhone--or at least provide A charge to your iPhone. If the iPhone is plugged in and you're not running the app, the phone charges. If you're running the app, the charge decreases, but very slowly. My assumption is that due to how resource heavy the app is, the drain on the battery is more than the incoming charge and so even though the phone is being "charged" you're still going to loose some. All in all, this is a great little tool(/toy), and I look forward to it getting even better with updates to the app in the future.

Needs more testing - More or less a BETA product now,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: goPoint Technology GL1 OBD-II Accessory for iPhone/iPod/iPad (Electronics)
I bought one of these and tested it on 4 different cars - 1999 Miata, 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2007 GMC Canyon and 2010 Sienna. It will read some of the data from the OBDII port but not all and I found quite a few displays resting at 0. GoPoint says they have new software in the works but I didn't want to be part of their BETA test team so I sent it back for a refund. Good idea just not there yet.

Very helpful for "check engine" light,
This review is from: goPoint Technology GL1 OBD-II Accessory for iPhone/iPod/iPad (Electronics)
I recently used the goLINK to diagnose the OBDII codes for "check engine" in my 2001 Mazda minivan. I did not trust the dealership and wanted to know the codes myself. I was truly impressed with the ease of use and effectiveness of the product. Just download the free app, plug it in and scroll through the menus. This little device saved me hundreds of dollars in repair bills.
