Designed for standard OBD-II diagnostics, it retrieves trouble codes, freeze-frame snapshots, and real-time parameters so you can understand what your vehicle is reporting without expensive shop visits. Note: this model does not support ABS, SRS, TPMS, transmission, EPB, or oil\/service resets and is not compatible with hybrids or fully electric cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I connect the LB03 to my phone?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnecting is quick and depends on your device. iPhones use BLE and automatically link after opening the app with Bluetooth enabled; Android phones require manual pairing in the phone’s Bluetooth settings using PIN 1234.
