Some questions: 1)where can I find the sources? Here I see only the zip compiled files 2)is it possible to use canable to make the cheapest immobilizer for cars, by injecting messages on canbus? I think yes, but why no one made it? You can use one usb wire as enabler (using it as digital input) for its function.

I’m using with success slcan sources at this link: https://github.com/normaldotcom/canable-fw

if you need hints on how to rapidly setup the development environment just ask for it

I also found, but not tested, the following sources: https://github.com/moonglow/pcan_cantact

Generally speaking you can find many repositories if you search on GitHub canable, but I don’t know if all supports all hardware versions.

on the computer I used with success Savvy with its sniffer functionality: https://www.savvycan.com/

The mainline candleLight_fw currently supports the MKS CANable 1.0 (no longer available for sale from MakerBase) but does not yet support the MKS CANable 2.0.

There is work underway in that repo to support both CAN and CAN-FD on the MKS CANable 2.0, it builds and works for me: https://github.com/candle-usb/candleLight_fw/pull/176
