Extended PIDs? #266

Open TrentTheDude opened 10 months ago

TrentTheDude commented 10 months ago

I've been successfully able to read most PID's on my 2006 Ford F250 6.0L, but for whatever reason OIL_TEMP, isn't found. There are monitors / tuners that are able to read this, along with Trans temp, so I am wondering if anyone knows if there's an extended PID list for Fords?

Thanks,

No, I've been using the 'torque' app on my phone with a bluetooth obd2. I reckon to figure out the correct PID for it, you'd have to just 'listen' for all PID data coming through the program itself to see. I found a wiki page on OBD2 PID's but I don't think it's accurate. Essentially I think it's just trial and error until you get the correct one... I kind of gave up half way through to be honest but in the future I may attempt this again.
