I got a OBBlink MX+ and have linked it yo Car scanner successfully. The next step is to link it with ABRP. I disconnected from car scanner and still see the device in BT. When I pull up the live data page in ABRP I don’t see the device.

Anyone else seen this?

I had some issues too the first time - I believe I had to connect it via bluetooth on my phone itself and then the app saw it (though I could be mistaken, it was a while ago)

ABRP only works with the BLE connection. It may not show up if its connected to your phone using regular BT. Disconnect it from your bluetooth settings, then scan again in the app.

I see from ABRP it only works with the CX. Not a big deal since I already had the MX for my truck.

Ahh yeah. The MX doesn't have BLE so it won't work.

MX+ won't work with ABRP. Need a BLE adapter instead. It's a dumb limitation.
