The M.1b is designed to work on vehicles manufactured from 1996 to current with On Board Diagnostics, OBD-II. The vehicle will have an OBD-II connector located inside the car, usually under the steering wheel, along the bottom of the dash. The M.1b simply plugs into this connector with the provided cable and transmits the vehicle data to the unit.

We use acronyms for the gauges your will see. Click here for a definition of the gauges.

We also have some special applications for particular vehicles and/or family of vehicles. For example, the MUT protocol, Mitsubishi's own, will be coming soon for Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX, VIII and others. The new 2008 Mitsubishi vehicles don't need to wait for this, since they are on CAN and offer plenty of high speed data.

The SSM protocol for Subaru is also on the way. This again, is for those Subarus on the ISO protocol for the OBD-II, not the 2008 models, which are on CAN and offer high speed data, (you also get the wideband and boost gauge on the 2008+ WRX STi).

The Consult II protocol for Nissan is very close to completion as well. All these will be on the products page shortly.

If your vehicle is a Mitsubishi, Subaru or Nissan/Infinit, let us know which one and send an email to marketing@magden-auto.com.

For PRE-OBD-II vehicles, utilize the M.1b + Zt-2 package. This allows you to add the sensors you need to monitor. Hot Rods and Custom Car builders, please let us know what late model engine you are using. If it has an OBD-II port, the M.1b can be the cleanest install for custom gauges and you can also use the Zt-2 to add more sensors if needed.
