How to run bluetooth LE with vLinker MC+ ?
jlneveu > 06-21-2024, 11:30 PM
Hello,
I've bought the vLinker MC+ wich supports automatic wake-up with my electric vehicle to replace iCar pro BLE.
I want to use it with ABRP on my Android smartphone but I can't get the OBD connection for the moment.
The pairing is successful with Android bluetooth (after pushing device button and entering code 1234).
I got a successful upgrade with VgateFwUpdate Tool. The new available version of the vLinker MC+ is 2.2.90 now.
The vLinker MC+ run on Car Scanner App with a Bluetooh connection, no running with Bluetooth LE connection.
With a bluetooth scanner utility, I don't detect any Bluetooth LE device nearby.
In this status, ABRP can't detect this OBD device.
What can I do other ?
Nota : the ref on the box of the device is B088LW211V.
Thank you in advance for your answer. -

ABRP connects via BLE, and the BLE Bluetooth name of vLinker MC+ is "vLinker MC-IOS", you need to select vLinker MC-IOS instead of vLinker MC-Android when connecting in Android. -

Ensure you select the correct Bluetooth name, you should be able to establish a successful connection between the vLinker MC+ and the ABRP app.

Since you successfully updated to firmware 2.2.90, check with Vgate’s customer support to see if there’s a specific setting to enable BLE mode.

If it still doesn't work, maybe ABRP doesn't support vLinker MC+ Block Blast over Bluetooth LE well. You can check on ABRP forum or contact Vgate support to see if there is a newer firmware version. -

To resolve the issue with ABRP not detecting your vLinker MC+, try the following:
1. Check ABRP Settings: Ensure the correct OBD device type and connection method are selected in the app.
2. Bluetooth Settings: Disconnect other Bluetooth devices to avoid interference.
3. App Permissions: Verify ABRP has permissions for Bluetooth and location services.
4. Device Compatibility: Confirm the firmware version is compatible with ABRP.
5. Restart Devices: Restart both your smartphone and vLinker MC+.
6. Contact Support: If the issue persists, reach out to ABRP support with your device and firmware details.
These steps should help establish a connection.

7. Firmware Recheck: Double-check if there are any additional firmware updates available for the vLinker MC+ that might improve compatibility.
Alternative Apps: Test the vLinker MC+ with another OBD app to ensure the device is functioning correctly.
9. Bluetooth LE: Since the device doesn't appear as a Bluetooth LE device, ensure ABRP is set to use standard Bluetooth, not BLE.
10. Device Reset: Perform a factory reset on the vLinker MC+ if possible, and then re-pair it with your smartphone.
These additional steps might help in resolving the connection issue with ABRP.
