π A.C.E. Mobile β Guide
A read-only health check, mileage log, inspection pre-check, and phone anti-theft for your car β all over Bluetooth. Nothing is written to the car unless you tap Clear and confirm.
π Quick start
1. Plug your BLE OBD-II dongle into the car's OBD-II port (under the dash, driver's side). 2. Turn the key to ON β engine running for live data (RPM, coolant, speed). 3. Tap π Connect to car and pick your dongle from the list. 4. Tap π Scan my car for a full read, or β Will I pass inspection? for an emissions pre-check.
ποΈ What each button does
π Connect to car β pairs with your Bluetooth OBD-II dongle. π Scan my car β reads live data + trouble codes, with plain-English fixes and repair-cost estimates. β Will I pass inspection? β checks your emissions "readiness monitors" + check-engine light so you know before you go. π Log mileage β records your odometer for a running mileage history. π‘οΈ Anti-theft / Kill β opens the A.C.E. Remote control (theft alerts + engine kill switch). ποΈ Hey JARVIS β ask out loud ("run a diagnostic", "what's my mileage", "email me the report").
π°οΈ Guard mode β real anti-theft test
Turns your phone + dongle into a live theft sensor: 1. Open remote.ace-auto.us and make sure it says ARMED. 2. Back here, Connect to car, then tap π°οΈ Guard mode (allow Location for geofencing). 3. If the engine starts while armed β or the car moves out of range β your phone gets an instant π¨ theft alert (push Β· text Β· email). Keep this tab open while guarding β it's a live test tool, not a background app.
π Which dongle do I need?
A.C.E. Mobile talks to your car over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), so you need a BLE ELM327 OBD-II adapter. Look for the words "BLE" or "Bluetooth 4.0/5.0" on the listing.
