OBD2 diagnostics for Abarth

What Final OBD reads and does on Abarth cars. The basics work on any car with OBD2; the rest depends on what each control unit answers, and here is what the app knows about the make and its 8 models.

Tested on real Abarth cars, plugged in, not just on paper.

What there is for Abarth

Figures for the whole make. On your car the app shows what its control units answer, no more and no less. The needle shows which version each feature is in.

  • Free

    Gauges and engine faults

    Standard OBD live data and engine faults explained, free with Free.

  • Pro

    Faults from every control unit

    Engine, gearbox, ABS, airbag, body and the rest, explained, with how the car was running when they happened, and cleared once fixed. 15,821 codes specific to the family, on top of the generic ones.

  • Pro

    Roadworthiness verdict

    What the Spanish ITV test centre reads through the OBD socket, judged by its official manual: pass, fail or something still to read.

  • Pro

    Make specific data

    2,325 readings that standard OBD doesn’t give and that the make stores its own way, depending on each model.

  • Pro

    Mileage check

    The mileage stored in the control units, next to the dashboard figure. If one of them holds more, it’s the classic sign of a clocked car.

  • Pro

    Service functions

    1,166 service and maintenance jobs the car expects to be done from a diagnostic tool, on the control units that accept them.

  • Workshop

    Component tests

    4,601 tests to run a part from your phone and see whether it responds, without taking anything apart.

  • Workshop

    Control unit adaptations

    496 adaptations to switch features on or off or tell the car you’ve replaced a part. The app reads every value back before and after.

  • Workshop

    One tap changes

    17 ready made changes per model, without having to know which value goes where.

Abarth models

Each model with its years and engines, and what can be done on it. A yes means the app has it for that model; on your car it shows up if the control unit answers.

Shares its diagnostics with Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Jeep.

The security gateway

Since 2018, Stellantis group cars have a security gateway so that only the manufacturer’s tools can write to the control units. On those cars Final OBD reads everything, but it may not be allowed to clear faults or change anything. Older cars don’t have it.

Can I clear the fault codes on my Abarth?

Yes, with Pro: it reads and clears the faults in every control unit that answers, not just the engine. Clear them once the fault is fixed; if it’s still there, it comes back. On models with a security gateway they are read all the same, but the car may not let you clear them.

Can I reset the service light or do the maintenance on my Abarth?

With Pro, the app has 1,166 service jobs for this make. Which ones work on your car depends on its control units, and the app only shows you the ones yours accepts.

Which OBD2 adapter do I need?

Any ELM327 type will do for the basics. For every control unit and the Workshop features, a good one, like a vLinker or an OBDLink. It’s all in the adapter guide.

Does it help with the roadworthiness test?

Yes, for the OBD part. It reads through the socket what the Spanish ITV test centre reads and tells you whether you’d pass under its official manual. Full details in the ITV and OBD guide.
