Product Information
Product Information
You know the problem: modern engine control units can react to even the smallest changes to the system and register fault codes.

With the OBD killer we have created a universal solution.
The device cyclically checks for pending and permanent error codes and deletes them.

Error codes or entire classes can be isolated on request.
If an error occurs outside of the expected error classes, the deletion process stops.
Thus, the functionality of the fault memory is maintained.

We present the new generation of the OBD Killer

Teachable
The new OBD killer learns the entered error codes and is therefore suitable for all emission-related, sporadic errors

Automatically
While driving, the engine control unit is monitored for sporadic errors in real time

Fast
Already existing error codes are blocked
Even before an error message is entered

Universal
For almost all vehicles from 2008
(some earlier cars may be supported)

What is the OBD Killer?

"OBD" stands for "on-board diagnostics", the standardized diagnostic interface of motor vehicles.
The OBD Killer is a compact electronics module, which is simply plugged into this diagnostic port.
There it will monitor the error messages of the engine control unit in real time for possible entries.
If a pending error is detected in memory, the OBD Killer blocks it before the driver sees a message on the Instrument Cluster/Check Engine "MIL" is Illuminated.

As soon as there is an error messages of no concern registered, the OBD Killer intervenes immediately,
removes the pending error message before it comes to an entry in the actual fault memory.
If an error code has already been entered before using the OBD killer, it will also be removed.

For which vehicles is the OBD Killer suitable?

The OBD killer can be used on all vehicles from model year 2008.
There are also vehicles that already support the necessary standard in the years before.
These vehicles can be recognized if pins 6 and 14 are occupied at the OBD diagnostic port.
It does not matter if the engine is diesel, gas, natural gas or LPG.

Some engine control units do not support the deletion of fault codes while driving.
For these vehicles, the OBD killer is then not suitable.

Which mistakes does the OBD Killer block?

The OBD killer is capable of learning can generally block all emission-related error codes.
During installation, the OBD killer learns the registered codes as expected errors. This process can be repeated as often as you like.
One of the most common mistakes is e.g. in connection with coked EGR valves code P0401. and the error code P0420 occurs very frequently e.g. aged catalysts.
It also deletes vendor-specific codes that do not conform to the OBD standard.
As soon as there is an error message that has not been "Taught/Programmed", the OBD killer will not intervene.
Thus, the full functionality of fault memory and engine indicator light is retained for all other error messages.

Where is the OBD Killer used?

The OBD killer is ideal for all sporadically occurring, exhaust-related errors such. P0400, P0401, P0402, P0403, P0404, P0405, P0406, P0407, P0408 (exhaust gas recirculation): After a repair of the exhaust gas recirculation, sporadic error messages often occur which often cannot be adequately clarified. The OBD killer is here a cheap alternative to the multiple replacement of all components.
Otherwise the error class of the catalyst (P0420, P0421, P0422, P0423, P0424, P0430, P0431, P0432, P0433, P0434).
Often the engine control unit repeatedly reports a faulty catalytic converter, although it is still in order.
This comes, for example, when using sports catalysts.
For performance increases or unexplained turbocharger problems often occurs the error code P0234: Boost pressure limit exceeded.

What do I do when changing vehicles?

When changing the vehicle, you can continue to use the OBD killer for all vehicles from the year 2008 onwards.
If the OBD killer detects a new chassis number after installation, all learned values will be reset.
The OBD killer then acts as brand new.

Will repairs become superfluous?

No.
If a repair has already been carried out for a fault, but then returns prematurely or reoccurs too frequently or cannot be solved or if no fault was found during diagnostics.
Instead of replacing all the parts again, the OBD killer is the better solution for the wallet and protects the environmental resources.

NB. OBD Killer is not able to display Fault codes and is purely "Taught" which codes to block by plugging the unit into the diagnostic socket, unplugging then plugging back in again. At this point whatever fault code was logged will be blocked or deleted by the OBD Killer. A generic Code reader capable of displaying engine fault codes would be needed when "Teaching" the OBD Killer to check which codes you are teaching it to block/delete.
Only "Teach" codes you know will not harm your vehicle.

About ECU Reader / Fault Finder

Porsche ECU Readers & Fault Finders - Engine Diagnostics & Tuning Tools

ECU Readers and Fault Finders are essential diagnostic tools that allow Porsche owners and technicians to read engine fault codes, monitor live data, and identify issues within the vehicle’s electronic management systems. Accurate diagnostics are critical for maintaining performance, reliability, and safe operation—especially in modern, electronically controlled Porsche engines.

Available from Design911, Porsche ECU readers and fault finders provide fast, reliable insight into engine and system faults, making them indispensable for maintenance, troubleshooting, and performance tuning.

What Do ECU Readers & Fault Finders Do?

ECU readers communicate with the vehicle’s engine control unit to diagnose faults.

Core Functions:
Read and clear engine fault codes.

  • Monitor live engine data and sensor readings.
  • Identify performance and drivability issues.
  • Assist with tuning diagnostics and setup.
  • Support preventative maintenance and repairs.

Effective diagnostics are essential for accurate fault resolution and safe engine tuning.

Why Do Diagnostics Fall Short Without Proper Tools?

Relying on guesswork or generic scanners can lead to incomplete or incorrect fault diagnosis. Common limitations include:

  • Inability to read Porsche-specific fault codes.
  • Limited access to live data and system parameters.
  • Misdiagnosis leading to unnecessary part replacement.
  • Difficulty identifying intermittent or hidden faults.
  • Lack of compatibility with performance modifications.

Without accurate diagnostic tools, small issues can escalate into major engine problems.

Why Upgrade to a Dedicated ECU Reader or Fault Finder?

Porsche-specific ECU readers provide deeper system access and reliable diagnostics.

Upgrade Benefits:

  • Accurate Porsche-specific fault detection.
  • Faster troubleshooting and reduced downtime.
  • Improved tuning accuracy and safety.
  • Ability to clear faults after repairs or upgrades.
  • Ideal for enthusiasts, workshops, and performance builds.

Upgrading ensures you can diagnose and resolve issues confidently and efficiently.
