Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought a Wifi enabled ODBII reader for my car so I could display real-time information on the iPod touch that I have mounted in my car. The iPod touch is connected to the radio via a cable from Becker Sound. This works very well, but is not the point of this post. Separately, I set up a gym in my basement and have a set of speakers there that are connected to my B&O system upstairs. I downloaded remote control software for my iPod and iPad (Tango). I dock my iPod upstairs and use my iPad to remotely control it when I'm in my gym. They need to be connected to the same WiFi network in order to work. I had a thought. If I have my WiFi ODBII reader plugged in, would I be able to use that Wifi network and have my passenger use my iPad to remotely control my iPod and play the role of a D.J.? The answer is Yes! I can even listen to music while the iPod is displaying the ODBII data. So my passenger uses my iPad to tell my iPod (that is about 18 inches away) what to play. Thank you Rube Goldberg.

Ok, that's 5 minutes of my life I'll never get back. I need a beer.

Really? If it took you five minutes to read that you probably should take a reading course. It was meant as kind of tongue in cheek, but someone might actually find it interesting. It would allow you to Skype to someone in the back seat. We all know how useful that ability is.
