The OBDSTAR x200 will will clear any light that comes on the dash and tell you what the reason for the light is. It has many functions which include resetting intervals and a normal OBD code reader/ clearer.
Really? Suspension and transmission failures on a GT?

I'd love to see a video of that please

When i scan it does not show any codes on this reader... but when i click erase all it erases the check engine light for a day and then it comes back..

I need a better scanner i guess
 
I just bought a BlueDriver by LeMur that has very good reviews on Amazon. But it doesn’t seem to fit my 2016 GTS. The car’s OBD port looks to be rectangular whereas the scanner socket is of a trapezoid shape. The OBDStar X200 Pro also appears to hav a trapezoid socket. What am I doing wrong?

All OBDII ports are the same size and configuration. You should be able to connect any scan tool that has an OBDII connector. Post up a picture of the connector on the scan tool.

WHS. The connector on the GT is a bit awkward but it does fit

Would this devise work to turn off the check engine light?
I own a 2009 GT.
I don’t have a green service light. I have a yellow check engine light.
I’ve checked everything out under the hood along with all fluids.
Everything looks fine and runs fine.
I also tightened the fuel cap just to be sure.
Light is still on.
Wondering if this devise might work?
Thank you!
 
It will allow you to reset trouble codes which will likely turn off the check engine light. However, depending on the issue your car has it may well come straight back on. The key thing is to use it to determine the trouble codes and then research what they mean. Tons of info online. Depending on the code(s), you can try a reset but it may also mean going straight to the dealer. If it is serious you should not reset the codes as the dealer will need that info to diagnose the problem.
 
Those gents that said this device had worked on their car, plz clarify if it did worked on Ghibli, QP, Levante, GT etc etc. Sometimes, it may work on other models but not the GT. Thanks ?

If the light is on, there's a problem. Any generic OBDII can read and clear check engine codes, but as pointed out, unless you fix the problem it's going to come straight back. And you really should find out what the problem is as it's not beyond the possible that you're destroying your engine.

I have researched quite a bit about small handheld devices that could reads a day clears codes for the GT there aren't many except for those expensive units. While all regular OBDII will reads and clears engine codes (Check Engine Light). Many cases that reads other codes such as ABS, SRS, EPB, Light Con troll ECU, etc, etc. I end up bought the Foxwell NT-510 for the GT specifically. It does reads codes for multiple systems in the GT. Surprisingly. I found that some units advertised as it could read all Maserati cars reality is not. The GT computers are different except for the Engine Code, which is standard with all cars in America from what I understand. I have the NT-510 unit for sale as I decided to acquired OE level diagnostic system for future use and business endeavor. Message me if anyone interested in buying it. Thanks.

Did you end up selling this? If not how much do you ant for it?
 
Got an X200 from Amazon last week. Worked as advertised on my 2014 GT Sport Convertible. Was surprisingly easy for a rook like me, once I found the OBD port.

It resets to only the 12.5k mile interval, though. Didn't see a way to customize.

I can't quite imagine why there would be a way to customize it? It's what Maserati recommend, or am I missing something?

PS I have one and it works on mine too :)

I agree. Maserati recommends the 12.5 service interval so why would you want to change it? If you want to change your oil more often, just do so. That's what I do. The tool worked perfectly on my 2013 GT Convertible and I bought it specifically for resetting the service wrench symbol, as the local Maserati dealership won't reset it unless they perform the maintenance.

My guess is that it's a 3rd party software issue, because in referencing the reset protocol for some earlier models, Maserati evidently allowed customization of the service interval without a tool. I'm curious to know why the company stopped this practice. It's pretty ham-handed to stick a scarlet letter on your dash until you return the car to THEIR service department. Bad form.


I would like to have the flexibility to change it because the one-length-fits-all reset renders the purpose of the display worthless. I'm not comfortable running a car 12,500 miles without an oil change, regardless of the capicity of the crankcase or the quality of oil.
 
Is there a feature list available for the OBDStar X200 Pro?

I bought a foxwell nt520 pro but i can't reset service interval on my QP 2007 Automatica :(
don't want to buy another scanner only to find that it doesen't work for my car.

Autel MS906 as alternative is a bit expensive.

I've never see a feature list for the tool, but when I was using it on my 2013 GT convertible, I did see that the QP was listed as a choice of cars to choose from. I'm pretty sure that it can be used to reset the service interval on your QP.

For the Foxwell NT510 you can request one free extended software from any one manufacturer (in this case Maserati) so I think you can do the same for the 520, no?
