With the holiday visitors coming I needed to clean up my test bench area. After
tossing everything in a cardboard box I was unhappy. Doing some testing during my time off would be fun. Decided to take my first day off and use it to mount all my E90 modules into an old computer tower. There is a Kombi, IHKA, JBE and DME. Soon there will be an EKP. Need to do a little more to finish but it's quite portable now.
This will help keep my desk from being too cluttered and the test setup is wired up much better.

Here is another video of the test bench. Added a bit on to it.
This is some excellent work here. Really interested to see more of this :)
ReplyDeleteAre you using a Microchip MCP2515 CAN Controller and MCP2551 (or similar) CAN Transceiver with your Arduino?
I'm using two 2515's and 2 different transceivers. For K-can I use "NXP TJA1055". For PT-can I use a 2551.
DeleteNice test bench. Can you send 18 pinout and how you power and connect to can of the cluster. I can't find anywhere wiring diagram. Thanks
ReplyDeleteAll wiring data I got from online. Search BMW WDS for sources.
DeleteWould you be wiling to share the arduino code you're using to mimic the DME?
ReplyDeleteSorry that's not in the cards anymore. I attempted to a group project for this on bimmerforums but got very little participation. When I got bored of this project my son sold the software to get some more college money. Wouldn't be right for me to publish it now.
DeleteHi Thaniel. Can you please suggest if fault tolerant transceiver is required to turn on ihka on a bench? I'm trying to use mcp2515 with no success..

DeleteI think you mean the transceiver MCP2551. I was unable to get a MCP2551 to work reliably with a fault tolerant CAN bus (K-CAN). The wave forms of a Fault tolerant CAN and High speed CAN bus are pretty different. I use "NXP TJA1055" and it works flawlessly. (Either chip can be used with the CAN controller chip MCP2515)
