No one?

Hi

Did you try adding the predefined ford extended PIDs (Settings->Advanced->Manage Extended PIDs->'Menu'->Ford then creating a display for the new sensors - hopefully that will work for you

Transmission temperature does depend largely if the ECU allows the data to be read or knowing the correct extended PID so you can enter it in the advanced settings and read it yourself

Ian

Thanks, I didn't even know that was there

There is nothing there for EOT. Also the trans temp always reads the same as the coolant temp which doesn't seem to be right.

Engine Oil Temperature
PID: 221310
Unit: Deg.F
Max/Min: 300.0/-40.
Equation:
((((B*256)+C)/100)-40)*(9/5)+32

Alberk on here posted this a while back. it works for me too....

I just tried it. It didn't work on my 03 6.0.

It worked yesterday I just updated to the latest version and it doesnt work for me either....I also have an 03 6.0L. This isnt fun. trying to figure out why my custom pids will not work at all on the new update.

Does your trans temp always reed the same a coolant?

yea it does come to think of it....thats not right. I will look into that.

With the fixing of a bug in the recent release this formula is now correct to:

Engine Oil Temperature
PID: 221310
Unit: Deg.F
Max/Min: 300.0/-40.
Equation:
((((A*256)+B)/100)-40)*(9/5)+32

... as the formula variables moved (B is now A, C is now B, etc) This was unfortunately required due to a bug (and there was no way I could do it automagically in the update). However it does mean that it is a lot easier to work out new PIDs going forward!

The Blind man see's.....

thanks Ian!

Any idea why the trans temp doesn't read right?

Not yet, but I will make that a priority to figure that out this weekend.

I will start a new thread...

I have a bunch of useful extended pids solely for the 6.0L powerstroke fords. I need someone to test them out to see if the readings are the same as mine.

oooohhhhh man this stuff is EXCITING...

Thats very cool! 🙂 If you're happy to share them, when you are ready, I can then add them to the predefined lists in the next app update so that others can use them without spending hours keying things in!

Sounds good to me....

I have around 40 of them....

Can't wait for this!

n00b question here.

When I enter into the field labeled "Equation (eg: A*B+20)" the following:

(((A*256)+B)/100)-40)*(9/5)+32

the torque app on my (motorola) droid tells me:

Equation: This value is invalid:
-37.43*1.8+32

That value, -35 and change, is between -40.0 and 300.0 so it should be valid... right?

Any clues for teh n00b?

Thanks!

You have not enough left-handed brackets in your equation 🙂
