"Hidden" OBDii PIDs Punto 199 1.3 Mjet
Posted: 24 Oct 2020, 09:53
Hello all,
For a project I am working on, I need to retrieve some realtime information from the car. I already got a lot of realtime data from the OBDii protocol, like speed, RPM, Turbo boost pressure,etc. The only thing I can't get to work is Fuel level.
It is part of the OBD protocol, but manufacturers can decide for them self if they want to implement it or even hide with a different PID.
Can someone help me to get the Fuel level OBDii PID? Or should I get that info thru the CAN bus system (CAN message) and if the latter is the only way, what message do I look for? Header, ID, Bit value, etc.
Here is some background info on what my prroject is:
I want to build an instrument cluster like Audi's Virtual Cockpit for my car. All the warning lights and indicators will be moved to a bar at the top of the cluster, so I can get rid of the needle servo's.
But to get rid of all dials, I need to get Fuel level to display on the display, so thru OBDii.
Thanks in advance.
