OBD Fusion tips and tricks

Yeah u can select it, but no data comes up. Stays at 0.

 

You only can read tpms info if you are connected to network D.
Go to Vehicle settings and select Promp for Network when connected .
Select Network D and add PIDs.
I cheated with techstream to link TPMS to the corners

 

I seem to be having issues with No Pids showing up under Network A. Ive purchased the appropriate Toyota pack and it shows that Ive purchased it, but when I go to add a display, nothing shows up under Network A. Anyone have this issue before?

 

Have you gone through the process of scanning? I think you have to let it do its 3-5 minute thingy to confirm all the pids from the truck. You have to be connected to do this.

 

Yah ive done that a couple times. Its weird because it showed up after the first time i scanned it, then the pids disappeared

 

Probably something simple, and then you’ll

 

Spent the last hour putting together another dashboard. Took some inspiration from my weekender, but this one is geared mostly towards work mode; towing.

That little red dot in the rpm gauge??? It turns green when the TC locks up. At least that’s the theory. Will find out in the morning.

I could put the gear # into the rpm gauge too, but I’d have to do away with the background gradients to make it clean.

The other weird thing is I have the right side gauges rotating counter clockwise.

Oops, need to put ranges on the rpm gauge.

 

That is REALLY very nicely done..........

 

thats a lot of gauges, are you using a tablet or a phone?

 

I’m using a phone, but admit that it’s right on the edge of good visibility. I have a Scosche mount that keeps my phone close to the edge of the dash so it’s in a good line of sight and not too far away. Later, I’ll move it to the multi mount from taco garage once I print a custom mount.

All the digital gauges are easily visible and it was easy to memorize which were where anyways. The radial gauges are a bit hard to see the scale on, but correct colored ranges should serve the purpose.

Since this was meant for towing, it has all the temps and gear status info, as well as gas performance.

I think there are PIDs for wheel speed and ABS stuff, so it could be fun to build an OffRoad dashboard to monitor all 4 wheels as well as temps and gear.

I reached out to the developer and asked if they planned to create a linear version of their round gauge. They said it was a great idea and they would put it on their list, but no guarantees.

It would be awesome if the developer built in a little logic; if this then that type of stuff.

Also, the red/green dot worked as intended. It’s red when the TC is unlocked, and green when locked. I wonder... did I choose correctly for the color scheme?

 

Are you guys creating these intricate dashboards on your phones? I would really like to create a dashboard on my big computer monitors and then export/import to my truck’s tablet...

@RushT that most recent dashboard is amazing. I would love to have the patience to put something like that together..

 

I wish you could export a dashboard. I gave up on painting one.

 

Oh you can...

I downloaded a few from other sites.

 

In OBD Fusion app?

 

Yea, upper right corner under menu.

 

Are they shareable? What other sites?

 

I'm glad I asked..
Thanks

 

I see afew posts before here here that files from Fusion can be exported . Any chance you could/would share the dash you made . I see it as a awesome towing dash .

 

You bet! Let me get an export done and I’ll pm you the link or file. You’ll need to configure your OBD to connect to a Dropbox. Dropbox is the import export vehicle. Once exported, you can share it around. But it has to be in the linked Dropbox to import.
