AlfaOBD

For diagnosing supported Fiat-group vehicles

AlfaOBD is an Android diagnostic and configuration tool for vehicles from Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia, Dodge, RAM, Chrysler and Jeep, plus Peugeot Boxer and Citroën Jumper. It suits owners who want access to more than generic OBD-II fault reading, provided they have a compatible OBD interface. Support depends on the vehicle and its control units, so check that your model and the functions you need are covered before relying on it.

What you can do

• Read fault codes and related ECU information, and clear codes.
• View live data from supported systems, including engine, gearbox, ABS and climate control, with graph plots.
• Run available active tests and configuration procedures for vehicle systems.
• Program electronic keys and remote controls where supported.

Check the connection and access limits

The app needs an OBD interface it supports; an incompatible or faulty interface can prevent communication with the car. Some FCA vehicles from model year 2018 onward have a security gateway that restricts third-party diagnostic access. Full access on those vehicles may require an SGW bypass. For Fiat 500X and certain Jeep Renegade or Compass models, the bypass must also support the relevant second high-speed CAN bus.

Is it the right choice?

Choose AlfaOBD if you own a supported vehicle and want vehicle-specific diagnostics or configuration options, and you are prepared to confirm interface and gateway compatibility. It is less suitable if you only need a simple code reader or expect every procedure to work on every model.
