Hey thanks a ton for sharing the link! Cheers.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

FYI, I featured you and your tip in last week's episode. Happy New Year! ;-)

[@W1LDCH1LD1]

@@CheaperJeeperTV Thanks! All the best in the New Year :)

[@randylowden1902]

Great to know there is a reasonably priced programmer. Looks like a real winner! The 303 is a good prize and is highly regarded for UV protection on many surfaces. Congrats again on a well deserved 2,000 subscribers!

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey Randy. Thank you so much for the feedback and the support. It will be much needed as I try making content with this Canadian winter upon us. ;-). Cheers.

[@K8ttau]

This is awesome! Will be getting that ASAP. Cheers for the tips too on the headlights. Your videos are definitely helping make sense of this seemingly complex upgrade

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey Charlie, I’m glad you found the video helpful. Thanks for watching. Cheers.

[@AudiSportFan1970]

Activated the back-up camera, and adjusted the tire size to get a correct speedo reading with this awesome device/app!!

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey thanks for the feedback. Glad you found the info in the video helpful. Cheers.

[@SciRado]

The best and most important thing I purchased for my jeep. I highly recommend.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey SciRadio, Thanks for sharing. Cheers.

[@Tgauchsin]

I ordered this controller and downloaded the app. Im using it to add the backup camera into my 2016 jku. I have the stock navigation stereo. Adding a backup camera. Total will be under $100.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Nice! A true Cheaper Jeeper

[@Tgauchsin]

Also it can scan for codes. I had a wheel speed sensor go out about 2 years ago. It happened again yesterday so timing couldn’t have been better for my purchase.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Perfect!👍

[@JohnnyGarton]

Bought the scanner you recommend and tried the JScan app, the app is nice but I’m trying out a couple others to see if I like something else better. Having said that the JScan app did work to give me the code that was causing my check engine light. Thanks for the video

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey Johnny, I'm glad it helped. I thought for the price, it provided a great solution for a number of things. I don't know what else other products can do, so I'd love to hear back from you on your findings with regards to other products. Cheers.

[@JeepJL]

Just remember, if you want to use the JScan app on JL or JT you'll need a Chrysler 12+8 cable in order to bypass the Security Gateway Module. And you really need the OBDLink MX+ to get the most functionality out of the JScan app. That module is $130

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey David, Thank you very much for that information. JK owners get the edge this time! ;-) Cheers

[@TheCleverSoftware]

OBD Vlinker MX+ will also work very well

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

@@TheCleverSoftware Hey thanks for the tip. Just wondering, given that it is $100 US, how would that improve what we get from the JScan($26 CDN) & iCar Pro($20 CDN) ?

[@myblujl7503]

Congratulations on the 2K dude!

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey MyBlyJL, Thank you very much!

[@unforgiven101inc]

I heard with this you can also program a new key fob.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

I googled it…apparently so!

[@jeffaquilino1806]

Can you do a cam phaser cleaning with this app

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Sorry. I don’t know.

[@TrailWalkerCB]

Very nice! I will have pick that up myself. Much cheaper than a programmer for the tires. Great Video

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey TrailWalker, Thank you for the feedback. The App can do a ton of things. Running it on a tablet, mounted in the Jeep would be cool too. Plus, the price is right. The link in the description to the Adapter is the cheapest I've seen. Cheers.

[@TrailWalkerCB]

@@CheaperJeeperTV I will have to check that out. I think a tablet mounted on the dash somewhere with that information would be very handy

[@fredpennell5126]

Do you leave this plugged in while driving too? My superchips you don’t. I’m interested in this because a 2012 doesn’t give you the temperature for your coolant. Mine likes to run hot as does the 3.6 but I’m looking for a device I can tell me the real time temperature for the coolant. Great videos keep up the work thank you.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey Fred, You can leave it in, or remove it after you have selected your settings. One thing to be aware of though, if you choose to leave it in all the time, should someone have the know-how, they can hack into your settings via bluetooth and have some fun with it. Maybe not too likely though. I'd suggest leaving it in when using it, then unplug it when not using it, just to be safe. Thanks for watching. Cheers.

[@JohnnyGarton]

JScan is a good app, however I’m trying out OBD fusion and it has a really nice live dashboard that I think will give you what you are asking for. I’m going to mount an old iPhone and keep it tuned to this app all the time for live information. @CheaperJeeperTV I would love to see a review on OBDFusion. Edit: When I say trying it out, I mean I paid $13 for it and it works well.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

@@JohnnyGarton Hey Johnny, A used iPad with bluetooth mounted would be cool too. I'll check out the OBD fusion when I have a chance. Cheers .

[@Trekking_America]

Do you know if the j scan is compatible with my Android phone? I also have a j k jeep is why I am asking two thousand twelve

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

I looked it up and am sending you this link. It has download links for iOS and Android, so it appears so, yes. jscan.net/#:~:text=Install%20the%20OBD%20JScan%20app,And%20you're%20ready.

[@grizzbuck]

Great information in this video! This is one app I'll be looking in to getting.

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey Dennis. Thanks for the feedback. It is actually an amazing app. Use the link in the description for the OBD 2 adapter, as most vendors try to sell it for more that the $19.99 of this vendor. Cheers

[@MixtapeMessiahDaily]

Hey I ran the tire size change and the abs light cut on now it’s a grinding noise on the front I have a WK2 grand cherokee

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

I don'y know whats happening in your circumstance. Sound like maybe you entered an incompatible tire size or the App has an issue for the WK2 Grade Cherokee tire size code. I'd check with the App to see what they say.

[@jividenpower8195]

Thanks for this tip!

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Hey Jividen, You are welcome. I’m glad you found it helpful. Cheers.

[@johnviera3884]

Does it read error codes?

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

Yes. Google it and read up on it. It does a lot of tasks and is not expensive, compared to other similar tools.

[@danielson7642]

Put the playback speed at 1.25 or 1.5, he’ll sound normal, you’re welcome

[@CheaperJeeperTV]

LOL, Hey Danny, You're right. I've been working on that.☺
