Very informative video !! Didn't answer the ? I was researching....does the Fixd stay in place always, or do you plug it in only when engine light comes on? I guess I'll keep searching. Thank you!

@Stephen McGraw when this video was released there were no additional fees. Since then they have added what they call "FIXD Premium" as an in app purchase for a cost of $69.99 a year or monthly for $8.99. If you are a DIY'er then you may only want the sensor which still reads codes without additional costs. If you are a technician working for yourself then it's probably worth it because you can join a community of technicians that offer notes and advice on repairs. If you navigate to your App Store you can find out anything you need to know about it.

Please note that We are NOT affiliated with FIXD at all and only bought the sensor and reviewed the product for ourselves and our audience.

Thank you for this video. Is there a monthly charge for using the app?

[larebe]

Do I need to buy one for every car or can I use it in multiple cars?

[baheejahali]

He did not mention in the steps you have to put in your car year, make, and model, because perhaps you want to run this diagnostic on cars. I have had mine FIXD for over a year and I am very pleased with it. Yes, I have reset or cleared my check engine light with the item, but if you do not fix the ongoing problem it will come back on in a few hours or days. This is compatible with most cars, go to their website and you see a line to allow you to check for auto compatability. Love this item for its convenience, and possibilities of solving a problem, and it can clear a check engine light.

Thank you for this great video!!
Please don't laugh at My Question....Do you leave the FIXD Sensor in place. Or Do You Remove It & place it only when attempting to Diagnose a potential vehicle problem or using it for Maintenance purposes?
( I have the minimal Instructions, but it doesn't Say what to do after the 8 Steps).

Great (how to) video installing Fixd! How long does the car need to be running to complete from start to finish to get a complete diagnostic scan?? My potential issue is a recall from Fiat in regards to excess burning of oil! Do not like to run engine long when not in motion! At the moment they are testing vehicles for exact oil usage mileage and time!

[geetavadnagra]

Does this give you the error code and can one delete the same

[kateflorin]

Just installed mine and was able to clear engine light and now my worries are gone since scan results did not show any problem. Took me 10 minutes . Thanks for the video. Thanks.

[paulmorphy]

Did you have to input your VIN before the scan worked. Do you have to input your mileage. I saw another vid on FIXD and the person had to input those things. It surprised me that this scanner couldn't read that info from the car's computer.

I was kind of hoping to see you do a step-by-step installation, showing screens with registering etc. But I think I got the jist of it. I've been watching various videos.

[johnhany]

The video mentions an Android cell phone but not an iPhone. Does this work with the iPhone?

[chee-chee]

The instructions said you also have to see a blue light come on when you install the Fixd to see if you have power on

[christineczyryca]

Where do you insert the FIXD part in a 2012 Toyota Yaris?

[nonakabyrd]

Wonder if you need a device for each car?

[gilbertlugo]

their is one thing they don't say" do you live the fixd plug in to the car? or you remove it and use it when you need it?

[stephenmcgraw]

Can you tell me is there a monthly fee for this device

[Redmeatsteak]

Couldn't find the place for my 2010 jeep Patriot for the fixd

[STONE_]

How much per year for the APP Service?

[danjacobsen]

Wish there was something like this to plug into my wife when she’s off
