nGauge/OBD2 question.

[BrantMcE]

So I apologize if this has been dealt with before. But is it possible to use two OBD2 devices simultaneously? I've read on the internet certain vehicles can depending on what info is being requested, or if they aren't trying to use the same pins or data at the same time. I know the internet is full of misinformation so I figured I'd ask here instead.

What I'm trying to see is if I can permanently mount my nGauge and have it plugged into my obd2 port, but use a splitter so I can simultaneously have a Bluetooth obd2 dongle for torque use. The other question is if people are able to use both the nGauge and an insurance policy tracking dongle such as the snapshot simultaneously. (Don't ask me why someone with a tune would think it's a good idea to use a device that lets their insurance company know of their driving habits though lol, just wondering if it's possible)

Thanks for the help,
Brant

I too was curious of this as I would like to use my Ngauge and my Aeroforce at the same time if possible to display more static PID's. I was unable to get a solid answer as yet.

Try it and see, and let us all know.

I will as soon as I get all my shit, and time to install..

Lol I guess I'll go ahead and order a y splitter cable and test it out.

If you plug the aeroforce first. Should work
