This will hopefully build on the Wiki page here: https://openinverter.org/wiki/CAN_table_CAN_STD Looking to see if we can standardize towards a CAN Table for a Generic PDU/Remote IO device to build into Zombie The actual end device shouldn't matter too much could be as simple as a bluepill and some ...

Hey All. Wondering if anyone has any sources for a MQB and MLB canlogs. I have the DBC files already, but just looking for some examples to work with to write a Zombieverter CAN plugin for MQB and MLB models. Lots of shared addresses between these two, as well as the Porsche 9x1/Macan. I've got the ...

Canbus update: The 'Private CAN' network that is used for the 'Smart Actuator' contains 4 Can Messages: Still working on a DBC, but here are my initial findings: 0x100 - Some data, but difficult to decipher other than one value counts up, while the other counts down... Maybe it's a position SP for t...

Great points to consider all around. I do fear that more forks of hardware will dilute the whole ecosystem, the main purpose was basically to get the board assembly cost down to $100 or so, shrinking the size to make custom boards easier while still using the same circuitry. My ultimate goal is to s...

Hello All. Inquiring to see if we can set some requirements for a 'Mini' Zombieverter. I'm careful not to fork and crowd this space too much; but I seem to think that there's some space in the Stm32-vcu line for a non-toyota focused VCU, while still maintaining compatibility with the project as a wh...

I'll bite on this one.
Been hoping to mess with seeing what protection is in the Raptor ECUs
Would you be willing to ship to Canada?
Just a flat rate international box will do.

Would the best path forward to be to condense the VCU into a footprint that can be just copy-paste into a PCB design for each connector/enclosure type? Ultimately with that many pins available, it's easy enough to add a few SPI IO chips and extend the IO to whatever space isn't used by the base VCU ...

Also used on some Korean cars, either the full plug, or just the smaller 60 pin, with the 94 pin left pin-less The later Porsche sdi3+ ECUs use a similar plug, although slightly different layout (Still 154 pins, but large pins are in different places with a 58/96 pin plug layout) That version is als...

Axles: A relatively major milestone. After some/many hours of measurement and trolling thru various online catalogs, I managed to find some suitable CV axle shafts. For Stub Axles, I purchased the Zero-EV 930 stubs during my mockup phase as I knew I wanted to stick with as close to a factory axle as...

Hey Folks, Just going to try to formalize some of my sleuthing related to the Iboosters for VAG cars. @larsrengersen has about the most current info in his blog series https://www.evcreate.nl/installing-the-ibooster/ Great work Lars! Feel free to take some of whatever info comes from this tread for ...

I'm not too confident that the 5QE modules are flexray only, as it seems they're used in the Mk7 and it appears that they're still using powertrain CAN connected on Terminals 16(CAN-L) & 25 (CAN-H) If you notice the Q7 wiring terminations in my previous post these terminals are unused, so I'm li...

Do you know whether the VW iboosters are CAN bus or Flexray (or do they support both)? I've been digging into this lately, From all the VCDS configuration items I can find for this unit, there isn't any switch to swap between CAN/Flexray The unit I have is unfortunately Flexray. There are many VAG ...

I've been using a PIWIS 3 38.500 image, along with a VAS6154 interface. I can give you more detail of my setup if you need (and image), it's easy enough to setup if you want. Another positive point is that it'll still identify all modules with the ECU/TCU missing. The only issue is the automatic mod...

12V Battery System The Porsche system uses a Battery Management System. This is easily bypassed, but I may try to work within the confines of the system. Haven't dug too deep into this system yet either, but it'd be ideal if a VAG charger using the existing alternator LIN protocol exists. The best ...

HVAC System I'll list some details more related to the HVAC integration here. My base plan is to use the HVAC CAN status signals to drive a VAG HV compressor. I may try to investigate other options, but from the initial testing the canbus should give me everything i need to know the demand required...

Cluster / OEM Integration This will be a dumping spot for some of the fine details for the integration. Also to document some of the Fails of the journey. Cluster: I was hopeful that the engineering option of turning on the Hybrid menus in the Gateway/Cluster/Radio modules would allow me to hijack ...

Battery Mounting Much more work to be done for this task, Once I have the front mount fabricated I'll be able to design the battery tray mounting points. There is enough places to make a box which can be mounted directly to the chassis points using factory threaded points. I've started mapping this...

HV HVAC heater The 3kw PTC heater has been fitted to the HVAC box. This task went pretty straightforward once I settled the fact that it'll require some cutting and adjustment of the plastic of the factory box. Some heat and the plastic was easily formed to allow the heater core to be retrofitted. ...

HV Circuits Purchased 5 of the cheap Kilovac contactors from Batteryhookup, This should get me started and hopefully let me get started on designing the HV Junction box. The harvested Panasonic relays/contactors from the Chevy spark battery pack I have will be used for the various heaters and prech...

Electrical/Canbus I haven't been too focused on this lately. Building off my previous work, I've been using the Teensy 4.1 I'm hoping to base my VCU off of the example by aot93 here: https://openinverter.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2167 I'll mimic the enclosure and some base programming. The Electric...

Motor Mounting I've also created 2 clamshell mounts that fit over the existing chassis rails. From this I'll use a 1.5x3" Aluminum Rectangular Tube and have it bolt onto these mounts, welding flanges onto them to cradle the cross brace with thru bolts. Since the chassis is aluminum, for these ...

Motor mounting: Rear mount is fabricated with the help of SendCutSend, It mounts onto the transmission mounts of the rear subframe. I plan to release my mount for anyone who wishes to use it. Fabricated out of 1/4" aluminum *Sharp eyed people may find the mistake I made... The mount is symmetr...

Hi All. Quite a bit delayed with a progress update. I may adjust the format of the build thread to have some posts reserved to allow me to update the various sections of the build. Brake Booster: The Audi 4M2 brake booster has been mounted, this wasn't too difficult but needed about 8mm trimmed from...

A bit offtopic, You can also decompile the cluster binary with Ghidra There are some differences between the 970 and 981 clusters. The VDO clusters are locked, but the 970 isn't. You can find the PBX file within PIWIS, Unzip and access the uncompressed/unencrypted binary. ID50 appear to be the main ...

I have 0x640 updating at 500ms, Check my project page for my breakdown, would be interesting to see if they align with your findings. (Yes I just copied by setup block 🙂 - For the Bit breakdown I left that to the Block Mapping) //-------------Motor_07---------------// uint8_t iMotor_07_Checksum = 0;...
