This looks great! Thanks for the great effort you have put in on this.

I have a different version of the ELM OBD2 interface that I was thinking of testing this with. I was thinking that the interface ID might be different to the ELM 327. Is there a way to adjust this if this is the case?

Cheers

Mick

I only have the 327 (version 1.1 at that) but the commands should be universal.
Let me know if you have any issues.

As for source code, well I am not very good so it is a complete mess, I may just upload the mess and let others try to figure out what I have done lol.

Hehe, well had a free hour this aft, so added a seach of .xls file to get Veh info cross referenced by OSID, and change the look of the Form a bit.

What do you think?

(will upload latest version later this evening)

Well, I started checking another PCM last night,
Seed was 33 E2
key was 42 CE

Only took 23 hours to get, so not too bad.


If you test it out, please let me know what the OSID was listed at and what vehicle it was, if you run it long enough to get key, plz let me know that too.

Was the PCM from the exact same model of vehicle?? Its using a different algorithm to your original seed/key combo.

No it wasnt from same vehicle type, two different Osids, first was a 2001 Impala, this was a 99 venture.

Many use the same algo, but it could be the same or could be different.

To be sure I am going to the wreckers soon to grab as many PCMs from the same vehicles as I can, hoping to find the algo.

Another Update while I test more Pcms and wait for the Hardware to be ready.

Not all Pcms have Mode 09 Pid 02 to report Vin# (1999 Venture for example)
So it took me a bit but have now change to 3c 01,02,03

Cleaned up some code for error traps and added Voltage report and some other details.

Zip now contains all Text files so more Vista friendly.

Next is Minimize to SysTray and Title is TaskBar

Please Send me any Unsupported Osids you come across with the Number and Veh info so it can be added
