This is a simple yet powerful library to effortlessly interface your Arduino with an ELM327 OBD-II scanner. With this library, you can query any and all OBD-II supported PIDs to collect a wide variety of car data (i.e. speed, rpm, engine temp, etc). Also, you can use ELMduino to view and clear your car's trouble codes - no need ot go to AutoZone anymore!
Install ELMduino using the Arduino IDE's Libraries Manager (search "ELMduino.h")
If you're having difficulty in connecting/keeping connection to your ELM327, try using 38400 baud instead of 115200. If you still have trouble, try all other possible bauds. Lastly, if using BluetoothSerial on an ESP32, try using the ELM327's MAC address instead of the device name "OBDII".
