    There’s a dutch group working on OBD2 communication with Renault EVs (ZOE, Kangoo and Fluence) using readily available OBD2 adapters.

    http://canze.fisch.lu (it’s in English)

    It’s early days, but they have already managed to read significant battery data and other information. I think that the amount of readable information will grow rapidly as more users get involved.

    I’ve just ordered this adapter: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151753972025

    I case anyone does not know where to find the socket on their ZOE, it’s under the rubber mat in the SD / USB/ cigar lighter compartment. See http://canze.fisch.lu/user-guide/

    as being on the NL forum i had posted this before but here in the UK none seams to be interested other then bashing Q210 against R240 and or Leaf bashing Zoe. very boring IMHO hence i’m abandoned the UK forums.

    I’m very interested in an odb tool
    Had software for my old Fiat and it was invaluable.

    @andyfras how did you get in with that elm Bluetooth unit?

    It works fine with my Motorola Moto G phone, but not with my Acer Iconia B1 Tablet.

    The guys at CanZE are releasing a new software version on Sunday which will test the connection, so that may indicate what is causing the problem with the Iconia. I hope that this can be made to work eventually, as it’s very hard to see what’s happening on the phone. It’s not a Bluetooth issue as that connection is OK; it’s just that it shows ‘ELM is not responding’.

    One request I’ve made is for the display to have a miles option instead of km. It may happen eventually, but I’ve been told it’s a low priority.

    I’ve tried to order the ELM unit, but the website doesn’t say what the version no. is. I’ve emailed the site and am waiting for an answer as I am keen to get involved.
    At present I have a RCN data logger plugged in like jit187 so I assume both units will work together.

    Mine arrived today. Glad to report my battery is at 98.74 health, so barely over 1% loss in 8000miles, happy with that.

    The battery of Zoe number 2 Zoe reports 101% @ 2300miles so chuffed 🙂

    I am just rendering a video about the OBD bluetooth dongle and the CANZE app that I recorded today. Happy to report 98% on the battery after nearly two years and almost 15,000 miles. Very pleased too. I used the dongle that andyfras linked to and it worked fine. Fascinating, in fact.
