I have found most of what I need but I was wondering if anyone has been able to get the message for blinkers left/right, e brake warning, and door ajar? Also, has anyone been able to pop the trunk, roll windows up and down, or alter AC systems through canbus? Thinking about running a tablet in the center with the realdash software with a custom template made only for the above car control functions.

Thanks in advance,
Very nice. I've not seen that before.

This guy used an Arduino to talk to the canbus and wrote his own Android app to talk to that and control the HVAC.

I'm looking to do something similar myself.

The HVAC won't work on the base model unless you swap out the control unit because the base model one doesn't have canbus control.

That looks interesting. I have access to Vector CAN tools so that's what I've been using. I'm currently making a database file (dbc) for the 370 that I'll share when I'm done.

I figured that would be the case regarding the HVAC after seeing things mentioned in the FSM.
sig11, Paul_S and Uxi like this.

I don't mind swapping the module if needed to talk AC via canbus but not sure what the commands are for the AC. They don't seem to be in the system.

I've not checked into this in detail yet, but if you read the comments on the YouTube vid you'll see some links to all the source code
