Need to read fault codes, reset the service light or check a warning lamp on your Tipo / Egea without a workshop trip? Motortune turns your iPhone and an ELM327 / OBD-II adapter into a scanner for the Fiat Tipo / Egea (type 356): it walks every control unit it can reach, names each fault in plain language, resets the service reminder and runs guided service routines. Free to scan; the one-time $18.99 Motortune Pro adds the write features.

Adapter

12 of 19 control units — including the engine — sit on the standard OBD pins, which any ELM327 v1.5+ adapter reaches. 5 more are on the slower interior bus (MS-CAN, pins 3/11): reaching those needs an adapter with an MS-CAN transceiver, such as the OBDLink MX+ or vLinker MC+. 2 sit on a second CAN or the body bus that only a vLinker MS switches to by itself (untested on hardware so far).

Reading codes is free; clearing them is part of the one-time Motortune Pro.

Can I reset the service light on a Tipo / Egea myself?

Adaptations & resets, Calibrations, DPF & exhaust, Gearbox learns, Battery registration, Tyre-pressure sensors — 13 guided routines across this model’s control units. The app confirms each unit’s software version before offering one, so what you see on your car can be a subset. Part of Pro.
