How it works

Understand car diagnostics

Diagnostic fault codes (DTCs, also called trouble or error codes) identify a particular problem area outside the normal range and show where a fault might be occurring (i.e. fuel mixture too rich) even if the warning light is not showing it.

BMW 3 Series

The modern vehicle contains data from up to 80 complex electronic control units. Carly reads out the data, interprets it and visualizes for you in an easy and understandable way.

Most Common Questions

Why should I make regular diagnostics?
Arrow down
The faults can appear even before the engine or other warning lights turn on. These minor issues can turn into bigger problems in the course of days or weeks, and when the warning light is on, it can already be too late or very costly.
Which electronic control units does the Health feature cover?
Arrow down
This depends on your car brand. Brands such as BMW, Mini, Audi, Skoda, Volkswagen, Seat, Toyota, Lexus, Mercedes, Renault, and Porsche have been in development for a long time and have more functions available. This includes manufacturer-level diagnosis on systems such as, engine, transmission, emissions, ABS, airbag, multimedia, and more. Other brands were implemented more recently and so we currently offer the OBD functions (OBD health or diagnosis, OBD parameters and Emissions check) for the time being, which covers the most critical systems.
How do I know which features will work for my car?
Arrow down
You can check the available Carly features for your car brand (and model) here. To be sure of which functions are supported bby your car’s hardware and software, you will need to connect the adapter and the free Carly Lite app version. We offer you a 30-day money-back guarantee for the Carly adapter so you can test it together with the free Lite version of the app. If it is not as expected, you can send the adapter back to us within the given period.
What do I need to get started?
Arrow down
You just need the Universal Carly Adapter and a mobile phone to download our app — Carly. If you have a car older than 2001, you will need the adapter extension, too. The app runs on both Android and iOS and works for almost all car brands in the world. Plug the adapter in the OBD port, connect to the app, and start running your first diagnosis. Get your set here.
