Hi Laurynas,

I have came across your build while searching for this exact crankshaft type build, I came across one that didn't really say much with regards to where you place certain code yours is much more informative

My question is this is there any way to modify the code so i dont have the SWC options as the screen i am going to be using has touchscreen functionality, I have a rpi 3b+ and a arduino nano also the latest version of crankshaft all up and running just waiting on a screen to arrive as i am retrofitting a screen into the car as it didn't come with navigation

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

thanks Dave

Hi Dave,

you you don't need steering wheel controls and use touchscreen instead, it should just work. Actually you could drop Arduino & LIN bus transceiver in this case. You could just send serial signal from RPi to the RTI screen when you would need to raise the screen.

So, you wouldn't need Arduino part at all in this case, but you would need to implement serial signal sending on RPi.

Cheers! Laurynas
