Technical Bluetooth OBD2 adapter stuck...

[CMaughan96]

Hey everybody...
I bought a Bluetooth OBD2 adapter to try and read a fault code on my phone, as I don't have a laptop to use.

The scanner doesn't work and I can't unplug it again. Is there a latch or anything necessary to unplug it? It is quite small - it might be that I'm just not able to get a good grip on it.

Can I unplug the cables either side to get a better grip, or will that mess things up? What are those cables?

Doesnt clip in. If you cant get a good grip i know you can unplug the one on left but dont know off the top of my head what the one on the right is

Id personally disconnect thr battery to play it safe

And then you should be able to get a pair of plumber pliers in there and wiggle it out
Once the 2 multiplugs are disconnected

Okay, thanks guys.

However, I was just doing something wrong, evidently, as the adapter does actually work.
I've got the relevant codes, and will post them in a new thread.

You can delete this, as it's a little pointless

Maybe not
Somebody may get in a pickle similar to this with an adaptor getting stuck
