A big day for my custom ECU interface
		
		
				
					
					
				
				
					
				
		
			
				
					Finally got the custom interface working with the TD5 ECU. Doesn't look like much, but the K-line comms to and from the ECU are the hardest part to get working and it's taken me ages to get it right. Running on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ with a 4" backpack LCD and a Thrustmaster MFD Cougar game controller 
Couldn't have done it without github.com/hairyone and github.com/pajacobson - I believe both are (or were) on this forum. Thank you gents.
I know the military MFD isn't everyone's cup of tea, but hey I'm ex-mil and I'm only building it for me. Now this is in place, I can add other sensors, alarms, gauges etc. Not intended to replace my Nanocom (which I love) but this gives me complete freedom to extend it into my dream car-computer.
