I made a computer system that controls all the heating, and air conditioning , auto climate, and starting the car, popping the trunk, gps, cell phone, all that crap, it runs windows XP embedded with some custom software that i wrote...

The major thing that i am lacking is the ability to access the engine PCM because i would really like to display my own guages on the screens. Without using 3rd party software.

Has anybody here figured out how to read pcm data using .NET controls?
I could sure use some help to finish off this project.

Thanks,
Ryan

 

I really need some help with this bad, there has got to be some programmers in here that messed with reading engine data ?

I guess it wouldnt need to be written in .NET it could log the paramaters to a db and i can read that.

 

The info you need is out there, but doubtful that anyone has assimilated it for you.

There are open source projects that read ALDL data streams.

There are documents on the net describing some of the data streams.
