ALDL Mode 8 for adx

Post by EagleMark »

I've been working on getting a working version of a $EE.adx for TunerProV5 for a few months with no success..

I've read the ALDL Basics thread:
https://pcmhacking.net/forums/view ... f=10&t=219

The PCM for this car is 16188051 or 16191333 $EE mask

Since I see a lot of non US stuff here it is for 1994 and 1995 LT1 Engines used in Corvette, Camaro, Firebird, Impala SS, Caprice cop cars (9C1) Buick RoadMasters.

There was a said working version of an $EE_Autoadx and $EE_Man.adx years ago for Corvette but no one seems to be able to get itnow adaysk nowadys? I don't know why, even since most laptops now are USB instead of Serial port all my other files work fine with 160baud or 8192baud

This is where my question on Mode 8 Mode 9 come into play when building and ADX file for TunerPro. Looking at wiring diagram the serail data from PCM comes in on $F4 to an OBDI pin "M" but I see also AntiLock Braking system, ABS (EBCM) $F9 and SIR $FA and HVAC at $EA also tied into the serial line. There is also a $FO for Corvette Digatal dash on some... Would I use Mode 8 to silence all of them and then Mode 9 to resume just $F4 ?

you need to silence the bus master by sending it the mode 8 message (disable normal mode communications).
The bus master is whichever module requests the normal mode messages from each of the other modules on the bus (since they only send data in response to a request, they do not initiate it).
once you have silenced the bus master you can request mode 1 etc. packets from the PCM or whichever module you like.
send the mode 9 packet to the bus master once you have finished your communications, to allow normal scheduled communications to resume.
