Frequently Asked Questions about USB ELM327 with MS/HS CAN for Ford

✅ What is the difference between MS CAN and HS CAN?

HS CAN (High-Speed) is used for the engine, ABS, and other core systems in the car.
MS CAN (Medium-Speed) is used for comfort and infotainment systems, such as door modules, climate control, and radio. Standard ELM327 readers do not support MS CAN – but this one does, thanks to a built-in switch.

✅ Does this ELM327 work with FORScan?

Yes, it is specifically designed for FORScan and works perfectly for reading/writing modules, resetting services, and performing advanced vehicle diagnostics on Ford, Mazda, and others.

✅ Which Ford models are compatible?

The tool works with most Ford models from approximately 2003 onwards that have an OBD2 port, including:

• Ford Focus

• Ford Fiesta

• Ford Mondeo

• Ford Kuga

• Ford S-Max

• Ford Galaxy
  and more.

✅ What does the FT232RL chip do?

FT232RL is a high-quality USB to serial interface chip that ensures stable and reliable communication between the computer and the car. Cheaper ELM327 units without this chip can be unstable or completely incompatible with FORScan.

✅ Can I program keys with this device?

Partially. You can read modules and sometimes gain access to programming functions depending on the car model, but for complete key programming, a dedicated programming tool is recommended.

✅ Which operating systems are supported?

This version works with Windows XP and Windows 7 32-bit. Support for newer systems like Windows 10/11 varies depending on drivers.

✅ How do I switch between MS CAN and HS CAN?

There is a physical switch on the cable:

• Set it to position 1 for HS CAN (pins 6 & 14)

• Set it to position 2 for MS CAN (pins 3 & 11)

✅ Can I use this ELM327 for other car brands?

It is optimized for Ford and Ford-based models but can also be used on other OBD2-compatible vehicles – though without MS CAN support if the car does not have the same structure.

Product Description

Introduction:
With this cable and compatible software, you can read modules that are not visible to standard OBD2 scanners. You gain access to fault codes, PIDs (parameter IDs), run tests, and perform service functions that standard ELM327 tools do not offer.

Basic functions:

• Clear fault codes / reset PIDs

• Modify vehicle configuration

• Run tests

• Perform service procedures

• Program certain vehicle models

Pin configuration:

• Switch position 1: HS CAN – uses pins 6 and 14

• Switch position 2: MS CAN – uses pins 3 and 11

Supported software:

• FOR-Scan

• Elmconfig

• FoCCCus

• FF2

• More software is also supported

Note:
Many Ford models (from approximately 2003–2004 onwards) have an MS CAN bus in addition to the standard HS CAN. Standard ELM327 does not support MS CAN as it is a manufacturer-specific solution that uses different pins than standard OBD2.
This modified ELM327 supports both HS CAN (pins 6 and 14) and MS CAN (pins 3 and 11).

Supported vehicles:
Many vehicles that use an OBDII port and can be addressed via ELM327.
