Hello!

I tried to get some data from CAN-bus directly. Where I can find list of CAN ID messages with its descriptions?
For example, message with CAN ID nomber 0x201 contains RPM speed (byte 0 and 1 x4), vehicle speed (byte 5, offset 39).
I search message ID with information of fuel consuption. Can any one help with list?
As I understand, in project OpenXC this list present and software convert data from CAN bus.
I use Ford Fiesta 2008 and it CAN bus.

Thanks.

Unfortunately that information is not available through Ford, it is company proprietary information.

If using a pre-combiled binary firmware from Ford, the signals they want you to be able to measure are pre-compiled into the binary so that the user does not know them.
The OpenXC module listens for the codes Ford has in the pre-compiled firmware and sends a JSON message WITHOUT the ID (a pre-defined name in the messages file of the firmware) for use by the user's application.

In order to get these IDs you must sniff the can bus on your own.

I have been compiling a list of IDs we do know so far, unfortunately it is limited to the front console of a Mustang, but the Radio control codes actually come from a 2008 Focus, so the codes are pretty much universal across models.

See the thread we've been updating:

Also the Google spreadsheet where you can contribute any codes you fine:

Hello everybody.

I have one more ID but I don't know jet anyting about the meaning of every bit.

0x4EB comes from the turbo actuator (Hella 6NW 008 412). I mean, if I unplug the turbo actuator connector (5 pins) the ID 0x4EB isn't seen anymore on the CAN bus.

The car is a Mondeo TDCi 2.2, 155 HP

This is a screen capture from Kayak and it was done with the engine stopped (ID=0x201 -RPM- is 0). I thought it would be better to not run the engine with the actuator disconnected, as errors would be captured by the ECU.

My truck has GPSM module data listed at address 701-01-01 with the data 505a.  Does anyone have the details on this data value, specifically how to enable and disable the module?

Hello,

I am searching for an example CAN frame of the Ignition button press. Trying to power up a MKIII Focus cluster outside  of the car :)

Thanks in advance for any help.
