Re: ZombieVerter CAN for Instrument Cluster


This has nothing to do with the engine ecu which we are replicating. You need to get into the airbag ecu via OBD and figure out what you did. and reset it.


Hi Tom,

I’m having a little trouble resetting the codes on the car, the OBD doesn’t seem to be reading any on the car, could it be because ...

Re: ZombieVerter CAN for Instrument Cluster


have you connected it to the BMW PT CAN? Then use the BMW E6x option. Do not have anything else besides the vehicle on that CAN bus.

The vehicle will need to go to sleep and wake up properly for the Zombie to try and keep the vehicle happy. If this is not the case we will need CAN logs to review ...

Re: Leaf Gen 1 Inverter Board


Basically yes, the board is a heavily modified Arduino Due so you’ll want to make sure you have Arduino Due Native USB available in the boards manager. You’ll also want to download all of the library files referenced at the top of the code.

If it’s your first time configuring the board you may ...

Hi Damien,

Does this process work the same way for the Gen 3 Stack?

It appears that the inverter and PMU have separate CAN Pairs in the Gen 3 stack Are they tied together and then connected the the CAN on the ZombieVerter?
