The original data may be erronious and the reformatting process may have introduced errors into the codes or descriptions. The ties between the codes and the descriptions may also have been effected and made erronious. As such any part of this software or data may provide invalid or misguiding data or cause harm. Use this software and data at your own risk, no garentees or warrenties are provided with the software and data and absolutly no responsibility will be taken for and issues or damage caused during the installation or use of the software or data. Never use a vehicle on a public road with a device connected to the OBDII port or any other part of the CAN BUS. The CAN BUS is used to run the engine, any issues on the CAN BUS while the engine is running may effect the running of the engine or even damage the engine. ============================================================================== REQUIREMENTS (Perform operations here as root user) ============ This project is not supported, the source code is here only to assist others who would like to adapt it to their own requirements. It has been taken as far as for the use on a BMW R53 Mini Cooper S, any additional adaptions, modifications and supported data will be requrired to make use for other vehicles. This application has been tested with a USB ELM327 OBDII cable and a Bluetooth ELM327 OBDII dongle. This application has been tested intended to run on a Raspberry Pi. The following versions and packages where present when tested: cat /proc/version Linux version 4.14.34-v7+ (dc4@dc4-XPS13-9333) (gcc version 4.9.3 (crosstool-NG crosstool-ng-1.22.0-88-g8460611)) #1110 SMP Mon Apr 16 15:18:51 BST 2018 # Packages required to run the software: apt-get install python3 apt-get install python3-serial apt-get install python3-pygame apt-get install python3-pypdf2 apt-get install python3-reportlab # If you are running Raspbian lignt, you will also need the following to # provide a minimal GUI environment. # On a 4GB SD card after install 1685452 (~1.6GB) used and 1860924(~1.8GB) free: apt-get install xserver-xorg apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-mouse apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-kbd apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-* apt-get install lxdm # Optional for printer support, currently untested: apt-get install lpr # Optional for opening and reading PDF files from Raspbian: apt-get install evince # Packages for Bluetooth serial dongle: apt-get install bluez apt-get install bluetoothd Start application from the command line: ./PiOBDII.py OR: python3 PiOBDII.py ADDING MISSING PID SUPPORT ========================== PID codes supported by a BMW Mini Cooper S R53 have been provided for in this source code. Additional PID code support may have been added over time. But for other vehicles there may be missing supported PID codes. To add support for a PID code, add the PID code to the EML327 class using existing PID source code as a guide. And check the formatting of the data in the PID text file definitions. What does this mean for other vehicles: The trouble code reporting is standard to the OBDII protocol. So trouble code reporting should work. There are standard ISO trouble code descriptions which apply to all vehicles, these descriptions are present, and will be displayed with the trouble codes reported. Vehicle specific trouble codes will be reported, but with the description "[NO DESCRIPTION]", so you will still see the trouble code numbers which you can look up, or provide a lookup table for your own vehicle. The most common PIDs are supported, such as vehicle speed, engine speed, engine temperature, ... Any unsupported PIDs should appear with an unsupported message. You should be able to add them in the ELM327.py file. I am unlikely to have time to add them, but you can report them as missing and if I have time I will attempt to add them if you reply as to if they are working correctly after.

They don't always return all data, so they may send bad data to the ECU and cause serious problems: https://obd-car-doctor.com/en-us/thread/Attention-Bad-Bluetooth-adapters-/ EXAMPLE CONNECTING TO A BLUETOOTH ELM327 DONGLE FROM LINUX COMMAND LINE OR THE BUILT IN RASPBERRY PI 3 BLUETOOTH DEVICE: # Bluetooth service # ----------------- # Get the status of the Bluetooth service. service bluetooth status # If the Bluetooth service is not running, start it. service bluetooth start # Stop the Bluetooth service only if required. service bluetooth stop # Pairing a Bluetooth device # -------------------------- # Once a device is paired it should automatically pair in future. # Start the Bluetooth utility. bluetoothctl # Make sure the Bluetooth device is powered on. power on # Make sure an agent is running for the Bluetooth device. agent on # Start a scan for other Bluetooth devices in the area. scan on # Wait for the required Bluetooth device to be reported... # Stop scanning when the required Bluetooth device is found. scan off # Attempt to pair the required Bluetooth device. pair <dev> e.g. <dev>=00:1D:A5:F7:FF:0D # Pairing normally prompts for a password.
