the APP see them but it does not connect to any of them

Do you mean that you saw the red message "OBD default" in the top right corner ?

If yes, then your OBD devices are definitely not compliant with the OBD norm.
If no, let me know what message you have.

Yes. The first one gave that message at ones. The other gave that message after trying to connect (in yellow I think) for 20 seconds or so.

I tried to order a "good" one from Amazon but they would not ship to Norway :-1-: so now I have ordered a VGATE from eBay (hope it is the real deal and not a fake brand).

Very interesting app 

I have decided to try it out and have ordered the same OBD device as elektrolux.

If you manage to include fault reading and clearing it would be GREAT!

Setting the car in the different charge modes and clearing water service would also be very nice

I'm working on it

Setting the car in the different charge modes and clearing water service would also be very nice 

It's already possible : in the page "Charge", you have 4 buttons, one for each charge type. Click on the desired charge and it wil change the charge type in about 5 to 10 sec.

The Charge menu must be to set chargemode. What is needed i addition is to cancel programmed charge. Cancel charge is needed when starting a fake initial charge after changing program/settings.

[Steens]

To cancel an unwanted charge, you just to have click on the button "normal charge" if you want a normal charge .

You can even cancel the equalization charge that is periodically set by the ECU. Then, the ECU will set it again for the next charge. Sometimes it can be useful if you don't have time on the next day to wait for a longer charge and want to delay it of one day.

Of course I didn't think of that

Oh, great!  Then it is only fault reading and clearing that are missing out of the functions I use the most with my old Lexia/PP2000 software on the bothersome old laptop (win XP)

Ja, jag har köpt min på Kjell&co för android och den fungerar med appen.
Jag har en Samsung S6.

[elektrolux]

Plug and play for me. Well done!

Any way you could do the same for Think Classic? There are perhaps 200-300 cars left that need water service, and only 10 ore so service instruments available.

Why not extending the app to other cars. But is the Think ECU similar to PSA ECU (Sagem) ? Or at least, is the communication protocol similar to the Sagem ?
The big point is to identify the communication protocol (how you start the communication, how you request information, the format of the reply, etc.). Maybe someone already did that ?
Then, if the protocol is identified and compatible, the rest of the app (bluetooth connection, OBD management, data post-processing, display...) would be totally re-useable.
But first : is there an OBD plug in the vehicle ?

Maybe you could ask BauDemo (Nikolay) if he is willing to share some views on that?  He has made an EV-monitor for Think Classic that requires an old Palm and a cable.

[elektrolux]

Good Idea! And yes it has OBD plug , but not sure if connections are standard.

Think is not same as Sagem, so you really need to get info from Bau Demo ore even RAV4_EV that also has hacked his way into the Think BMS.

[Steens]

Hello,

The version 1.3 of Checkelec is available, identical to previous version but providing Norwegian translation (thanks to Elmo) and Swedish translation (thanks to Saxo56).

The update will be automatic. You can also force the manual update under the Playstore if you deactivated the automatic updates in Android or if you are impatient ! 

Enjoy !

I have created some MSDOS programs to unlock and/or reset the Think Simovert controller. I also have the BMS and charger protocols.
