Re: Developing a CAN ID table for the Golf V | Posts 16+

Nothing more is happening here. Should we perhaps give someone else a chance to handle this?

'Could you please provide me with a copy of the CAN-ID table?'

No!

yes, that's the way it goes

How are we going to handle the collaborative editing?
Does anyone have any other ideas?

No!

My apologies.

I wasn't trying to get information for free; I just wanted to use my time more efficiently.

If I knew what you've already figured out, I could spend my time figuring out what we *don't* know.

'I've learned some things since I originally posted. Is there anything specific you're looking for?' I would like to prove myself .

Seedman, Maxx, and everyone else:

'I also have a 2007 Golf GTI, and I've been working on and off for several months trying to reverse engineer the CAN-bus commands for my GTI.' I have identified many CAN IDs and bytes for different functions (turn signals, headlights, cruise control, paddle shifters, door locks, windows, emergency flashers, and a few others), but there are countless others that I have been unable to decipher.

My ultimate goal is to be able to control many car functions from the Mac Mini that is in my car. It's great that you're already working together, and I'd like to help out. We can share our knowledge and help each other.

I am very excited that others besides me are working on this.

Thank you!
Andrew.

Hi.

Okay, so how do we proceed now? It seems like everything has come to a standstill, or? And with more and more people getting involved, it really should be improved. Even though I don't have a test vehicle for it right now, I'd like to get involved. The real problem, though, is the publication aspect. It would be unwise to reveal everything just because someone claims to have a lot of information, only to later realize they said that to get information from you.

Okay, but ultimately, it's not really my decision, but rather the responsibility of the person who created the list.

p.ostrich:

I completely understand your hesitation. You might already know this, but to demonstrate my good intentions and that I'm not just taking advantage, here's some of the information I've gathered.
2007 VW Golf GTI (Fahrenheit) US Edition (2-door):
ID: 2C1 <- Turn Signals/Brights (byte 1)
byte # / bit value / HEX / result
1 / h01 / 01 / Left Turn Signal
1 / h02 / 02 / Right Turn Signal
1 / h04 / 04 / Temp Flash to Pass (Stalk towards you)
1 / h08 / 08 / Long Flash to Pass (Stalk away from you)

ID: 289 <- Cruise Control
Cruise Control On
?D 01 ?C 00
Cruise Control Off
?C 00 ?C 00
Paddle Shifters - Byte 4
h01 = Downshift
h02 = Upshift

ID: 291 <- DOOR LOCKS (byte 2,3)
byte # / bit value / HEX / result
2 / h01 h04 h10 h40 / 55 / LOCK Doors
3 / h04 / 04 / ^^^^^^^^
or
2 / h02 h08 h20 h80 / AA / UNLOCK DOORS

ID: 381 <- DRIVER DOOR
Byte 1 = Door Open/Closed
Byte 2,3,4 = Window

ID: 3B5 <- PASSENGER DOOR
Byte 1 = Door Open/Closed
Byte 2,3,4 = Window

ID: 531 <- Emergency Blinkers (byte 2,3,4)
bit value / HEX / result
Byte 2
h01 h02 h08 h10 / 1B / E. Blinkers On
Byte 3
h01 h02 h08 / ?B / E. Blinkers On
Byte 4
h08 / ?8 / E. Blinkers On

This may not be nearly as much as you have, but I hope that this will help ease your fears.

Thank you.

I created a spreadsheet that contains most of the information I know.

I don't understand why we need to keep this information so private. We should make everything as public as possible. The more information people have, the more likely they are to want to help, and the less time they will waste trying to figure things out that we already know.

Hi CAD.

Yes, in some points you are right, and I understand what you mean. But the problem is that it's hard work to obtain this information, and there are too many people who want to know everything but don't want to contribute anything in return.

Hello.
I am currently writing a thesis where I need to create CAN matrices, not just for the Volkswagen Golf V, but ideally for every manufacturer and model.

'If I could have access to your database or the Excel spreadsheet, I would be very grateful. It would give me a starting point for understanding how VW handles things, and I believe Skoda/Seat will likely have a similar approach.'

Creating K-matrices for every manufacturer and model is a lifelong endeavor. And if you're writing a master's thesis on this topic, you (or your program) should know how to contact the vehicle manufacturers and obtain the necessary information. 'The K-matrices are subject to the strictest non-disclosure agreements, and no one will readily reveal them.'

Rest has already been written above by p.ostrich.
'But the problem is that it's hard work to obtain this information, and there are too many people who want to know everything but don't want to contribute anything.'

Best regards,

Hey everyone,

I'm currently doing an internship where I'm tasked with equipping a test vehicle (a Passat CC). To my knowledge, the CAN IDs are relatively the same across all VW models.

My own attempts at decryption haven't progressed very far . However, I could offer to buy the IDs and bytes from you.

Specifically, it concerns the steering angle/speed, ABS/ESP intervention, brake light, and mileage.

Do you have this data and are you interested in a business opportunity?

Thank you very much for your answers .

Hello everyone!

Sorry for writing in English.
I have some free time and I'd like to contribute to the project.
My car is a Skoda Octavia II, model year 2008.

Where can I upload information?
