Troubleshooting:
My Kiwi® 2 Wifi does not turn on:
Is the Kiwi® 2 Wifi plugged into the OBD II port of the vehicle?
Verify that the Kiwi® 2 Wifi is fully plugged into the OBD II port. The fit
should be snug, but force should not be necessary.
Does the vehicle have the required pins populated for the Kiwi® 2 Wifi turn on?
The Kiwi® 2 Wifi requires pin 4, 5, and 16 to power on. Pin 16 is the
power pin. Pins 4 and 5 are grounds.
Tap the sleep switch.
I can’t see the PLXKiwi2 SSID:
Is the Kiwi® 2 Wifi powered?
Verify that you have 12v of power on your OBD II port using a digital
multimeter on pins 16 and 5.
Have you turned on your wireless adapter?
Verify that you have WiFi activated in your iOS device.
I have Wifi bars, but the applications are not connecting.
Verify that the IP address, Subnet mask and router are entered correctly.
Please note that you are setting the IP address for the iOS device, not the Kiwi® 2
Wifi. In order for the two units to relay data, the IP address for the iOS device must
be 192.168.0.11 Setting the IP address to 192.168.0.10 will cause the iOS device
and Kiwi® 2 Wifi to not communicate with each other.

iMFD Port
Only remove termination jumper if connecting iMFD Adapter
The iMFD port is for adding additional aftermarket sensors not typically found in
OBD II data like air/fuel ratio, EGT, vacuum/boost.
The iMFD Adapter is an additional part that connects directly to your Kiwi® 2 Wifi.
Simply remove the termination jumper on the back of the Kiwi® 2 Wifi, connect the
iMFD Adapter, and connect a serial data cable from any PLX Sensor Module to view
