      So I built a few canbus/car electronic projects… anyone got ideas for more?

      By Gripless · Posted

      First boards turned up. waiting on the rest of the components to arrive so can test them.

      What have you done to your car today?

      By Gripless · Posted

      Painted some speakers.  Just tidying up some old high end speakers magnet mounts. Original paint flaking from that white oxidation or the alloy. Used some left over touch up paint, so colour matched to the car.

      Pretty much. The board and chip can read any can up to 1Mb/s speed what you do with it is open to how much coding you can do. The ESP32 that it’s based one has built in canbus support so it’s not as complex as it appears.   I’ll have some basic framework coding for it, along with the web config examples. That way there is no need for an app as the ESP32 can be a wifi access point and you connect to it, and it shows the settings. I have two prototypes running on the OEM stock canbus. One does rpm shiftlight the other is DCCD display. The tire pressure one hasn’t got off my desk yet as it has an annoying mounting system but it works, mostly. There is no discovery scan yet, you have to know the max addresses of the sensors. There is another bigger display that is popular CYD 2.8” with touch control for NZD$15-30 as well, that seems like it maybe a good idea to do as well. Power and canbus would be 1/4 to 1/3 that board the rest could be holes for whatever other electronics.

      So, these little gauges can hook into the CAN system and then ... read whatever? Clever! Another reason for me to get a Link..

      Have a week or two before the first version turns up and no improvements to make until I can test the board.   In the meantime I had the idea I could adapt what I have to a board that plugs into this… https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008877505362.html that way it’s really cheap to have a canbus connected mini display.   Anyone can cut or print a custom front panel or mount it behind a small cutout. Only a few screws hold it together which makes it simple to assemble. Being shipped from China as DIY no need for certification like CE or FCC for radio(wifi) devices. That board already has 3 usable buttons (plus reboot) and 3 spare in/out with serial port. 2 is enough for canbus board. It has place for power in so I just need to do a 12v to 5v section and the protection circuit.
