Yeah has something to do with apple's bluetooth protocol. As in, it'd not open like android's. There is a bluetooth adaptor made for iOS but it and the app are $100 last I checked.

Apple tends to want to control how the world works, so if you buy an iPhone and build your own application you have to buy a license to put it on the hardware that you have bought and paid for.
I looked into it and Apple wanted $395 a year for a license to put my own application on my own handset. Their argument was that they wanted to know where to application came from if there was a problem which in this case didn't make any sense to me but it is Apple.

Did installing new O2 sensors solve this failed test? I have the same failed test on my 2000 Cherokee.

Default Problem Fixed?

I don't have exact numbers, but I can practically watch the gauge drop after a half hour drive or so. No CEL or other trouble codes.



I found this thread which has been the most helpful so far. It appears the failed test references the upstream oxygen sensor. It all seems to make sense, but some other Google results have shown that people have replaced their sensors (on different vehicles) and still have a failed result.

I was wondering if any of you wizards out there are familiar with this at all or might have encountered it. I'm going to go ahead and order the O2 sensors because I have no idea when (if ever) they were replaced.

Other things worth noting:

-Full tuneup was done last Spring consisting of new NGK plugs, NAPA wires, NAPA cap & rotor, and new air filter.
-Temp sensor functioning correctly, reading around 199* and no higher than 205* typically.
-Brand new fuel pump and filter installed two weeks ago.
-Rebuilt 703 injectors installed a few weeks ago.

The Jeep runs excellent otherwise, but it does have a very slight stumble/misfire condition at idle. This was also present before the injector upgrade. Could this be caused by a rich fuel mixture? Exhaust seems normal and does not have any rich fuel smell to it.

Hey PocketsEmpty, did replacing the O2 sensors fix this failed test? I have the same failed test with a stumbling idle and back firing.

Yes, replacing the upstream sensor resolved the test and stumbling issues I was having.

Anyone using the torque app ever go into the Adapter Settings Information and look at the error count? I've done it a few times and I always have a number of errors which suggest that the adapter isn't working properly. Anyone have an adapter that has 0 errors? If so, which one? I'm thinking my adapter may be bad.
