OBDLink MX+ didn't work so I am using the OBDLink EX. Attached is the data details. Doesn't assist with issue. I resorted to a voltmeter and at the throttle body harness. Harness connected to EMISSION HARNESS (EM) Maybe I am overthinking this but does this mean I have short or open wire or wires?

Purchased the LAUNCH X431 PROS V+ 5.0 Elite Bidirectional Scan Tool. I am definitely not happy with what it can for my 2010 3 2.5 and 2012 Speed. I am returning and downloading the FORScan tomorrow and just purchased the OBDLink MX+. Let's see how things go.

Do you know anyone that uses it? I've read into this but what are you hoping to get? I see many talks but nobody really using on Mazda.

I just sampled the LAUNCH X431 PROS V there's a lot going on with this device. THe 2010-2013 Mazdaspeeds etc don't really have much on there but the graphs are great and live feed for data that is not working doing. They have nothing for sensors, polarity, shorts etc

I know many will say snap-on right away but are there any other options out there can diagnose extremely well especially like sensors, polarity, shorts etc?

OEM...I was thinking of getting a CS one because @Raider have been lucky with using so far. On the other hand, I was going to get a used oem one since they are cheap.

Should I post a data log for this test?

Update....didn't check spark plugs yet but I did a throttle body test because it was clean. The TB flap is not opening all the way at full throttle. See video: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/huz6r1v9uhp4v0akqy3yl/VID-20240727-WA0008.mp4?rlkey=4f9nehkvmjxlc5sg73lnlflxk&st=o6m33mbg&dl=0 I will...

Nice

I saw the same post

new OCV installed and struggle engine with P050A and P050B...I'm lost but I am going to google what is can be some more. so far and I am seeing dirty TB or failed spark plugs that I have to look into.

Changing out OCV tomorrow. Is the brown ground and the other positive? I am going to do a OCV power test on the old and new with a battery to see if this will truly solve the issue.

o_O:confused::2guns: I guess I am lucky I have a new OCV that I ordered last month. I am lost to why the code came up. I thought it was correct this time. Dam...so much cutting.

Sound good :dancer2:

sway the wires and even added a new female connector with new wire as that wire was exposed and the other side just came off. It seems something is off as the car is struggling with now a P2088 code. video 1...

Thank you for replying. I guess I messed up when swapping out the main harness and wiring the vvt extension wire backwards. I hope I didn't damage anything serious. I guess I need to reverse the wires and replace the OCV as I might have damaged it or maybe even the VVT actuator is damaged?

How's it going Matthew. I appreciate you continuing to be an innovator on our platform. Are you still selling products at this time? If yes, I need that VVT Extension ASAP...lol :aaaaa:

What would truly happen if the polarity is reversed? Meaning if a person wire the OCV connector backwards. I ask because I have someone that just install the extension kit. No code comes. After a few days, the car sounds like it is running on 2 cylinders. Anyone can assist? I think the wires...

How's it going. Just received your bcs as the one I had, was leaking from 2 locations. Where did you guys use the 90 degree backet? I'm trying to pick a new location away from the ecu on mounted on a HTP 51R battery tray.

With recommendations from @Raider , I went on their FB page and found a post from last year from Brandon Clark and it somewhat shows it might not work. See images from this post attached.
