Title: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ecoboostsho on June 07, 2014, 07:59:06 PM
I finally spent some time this weekend trying out an idea I had and I believe it is working so far.  I am reverse engineering a few of the PIDs with a serial protocol analyzer and a scan tool that requests the information.  I basically request a parameter one PID at a time and capture the response from the car which includes the original PID and the value.  As such I am fairly confident in the PID however the "math" part of the equation is more challenging.  Here is what I have confirmed so far...

*Disclaimer - While these were originally done on my 2011 SHO I have since purchased a 2013 SHO model and have tested almost all of them and they are the same with notable exceptions (AWD, Tire Pressure). That said you should verify they will work with your car first. The 2013+ cars have a BCM (in lieu of a smart junction box) which may require different PIDs for some parameters. Additionally, I see no reason why they shouldn't be the same for the Flex, MKS, and possibly even other EcoBoost platforms.  As always do not tweak these while moving. ;)

Instructions for adding the PIDs to Torque are at the bottom of this post. 

For Anyone interested in trying this yourself here is how I am approaching this:

First you will need an OBDII adapter...I highly recommend the MX adapter because of its speed and ability to access the HSCAN AND MSCAN buses.  Although torque can't explicitly access the MSCAN bus other software such as http://forscan.org (http://forscan.org) can.  I purchased my MX from http://scantool.net (http://scantool.net)  I got the Bluetooth model and use it with my Android Phone.

Torque can be downloaded from the App store.  There are two versions - one is free and the other is "paid" but it's only like $5 and well worth it as I don't think you can add custom PIDs with the Free version.

If you are willing to you can download a free serial port sniffer - I used this one.  http://freeserialanalyzer.com/ (http://freeserialanalyzer.com/)

It has some limitations (30 minute max session time) but works really well and even sees Bluetooth COM port data.  You basically install that on the same laptop as you have your Scanning Software (Forscan works great).  You start Forscan and connect it to the car.  Then select the PID you are after (and just that PID).  Now before you hit the "start" button in Forscan you want to fire up the serial analyzer and then "connect" to the COM port that Forscan is using (this will vary).  Select "Packet View" and then "start" capturing data.  Switch back to Forscan and then start capturing the PID.  You literally need a couple of seconds of data as it will create a lot of lines in the serial analyzer very quickly.

Now comes the fun part.  Using the serial analyzer you can look at the data captured line by line.  You should see alternating Reads and Writes.  When the scantool is requesting a PID it will always start with "22xxxx" where the xxxx is the actual PID for whatever you were scanning.  The response will always be "62xxxx" which will include the same PID.  The next several bytes include the response from the car and they are always in Hexidecimal. 

In some cases you may need to determine the "Module" (i.e. ECU, BCM, 4x$) address.  If you go back to the very beginning of the lines in the serial analyzer you will see a set of ASCII codes it sends to the car to set up the PIDs it is requesting.  You are looking for a line right a the beginning that includes the following:
STCAFCP761, 726.  In this example the 761 is the module address of the AWD unit in a 2011 Taurus.  726 is the address of the scantool I believe.  If you find this command look for the 3 digits right after the STCAFCP...  That should be the module address you are after.  You take this and plug that 3 digit number in to the "Header" portion of Torque.  Add your PID and equation and you should be good to go.

I know that is a lot of info to digest but it isn't as complicated as it sounds once you get in to it.  The hard part is actually figuring out the equation.

2010+ Taurus pids

Knock 

Notes on how this PID works: This PID will vary from -4 to +7.5 although we have some people that say they've seen a -5.  If the number is negative then it is adding timing in real time (this is good)...if it is positive it is knocking (this is bad).   A couple of degrees isn't a big deal and the general consensus seems to be under 5 should be okay if you aren't highly modified.  The ECU is supposedly able to subtract a maximum of 7.5 degrees of timing and won't read any higher (not verified by me personally and may be tune dependent).

Most of the knock I see is at part throttle (less than 2 degrees) and isn't a big deal unless you are maxing out the gauge then something worth looking in to may be going on.  Knock at WOT is more important to monitor.

One note:  Do NOT use spaces in the equation and pay careful attention to the () or you will get weird results.

PID 2203EC
Torque Equation -  ((signed(A)*256)+B)/512 

Note: Many people find the logic Ford used "backwards" and think that a positive number should be adding timing and a negative number should mean knock.  This is a totally valid approach and you can easily change the formula to accommodate that by using the following formula:

Torque Equation -  ((signed(A)*256)+B)/-512

You can think of this as Cylinder Ignition correction - If it is positive then it is adding timing (good) if it is negative is subtracting timing (Bad)

Whatever way you decide to use it is just fine but make sure you remember :)  For the record I have switched to the second way as i find it more intuitive.

12-12-19 update - It was brought to my attention that some tuners are setting knock to "per cylinder" instead of "global".  If that is the case then this gauge will always read 0 and you won't be getting an accurate reading of knock.  You should be able to see it adding timing at light throttle on a fairly regular basis so if you aren't I would recommend consulting with your tuner before relying on this gauge entirely.

Fuel Pump pressure "desired" Fuel pump PID discussion starts on page 10 (This probably isn't terribly interesting until you compare it against measured fuel pressure (which is already available in Torque).  Most of us won't have an issue with this unless you are running Ethanol blends and are worried about running out of pump capacity.  I'm venturing a large discrepancy between Desired and Measured would be "bad".

Another note on LOR - It appears to only look at knock seen under 4k RPM and 1.5 load (Credit to AJPTurbo) in other words at part throttle conditions.  It won't look at WOT knock and adjust the LOR directly however if your LOR does change it is believed to affect your WOT timing.

Formula = "A/256*100" <-- try this formula it works. (FF = 256.. so if 256/2 = 128 points)
note that this value = 0 when you are using cruise control as it measure actual pedal position of the accelerator. This position % is the raw read of the pedal position.  Note that this will not ever exceed 80% as that is considered fully open.  I thought this was silly since it's accelerator pedal position (and not throttle body) so I use a formula of A/2 which gets you a decimal range from 0 to 100 when fully open.  It isn't technically correct but makes more sense to my brain. :)

Desired Boost Discussion on pages 13 and 14
I've been messing with the "Desired Boost" PID and it has been driving me crazy, but I think I've finally figured it out for anyone that cares!  It was never matching the boost gauge in Torque and didn't seem linearly related at all so I couldn't figure out the equation.  Then I stumbled on a PID called "Throttle Inlet Pressure Sensor".  If you remember our cars have (at least) two pressure sensors (there is an additional one for barometric pressure as well someplace) - one sitting on top of the manifold (also combined with IAT2) and one right before the throttle plate.  I figured out the throttle plate PID (22033E) and watched that and sure enough that is what tracks to "Desired Boost".  It makes sense actually since there would be a pressure drop across the throttle plate depending on how far it was open (and max is only 80% anyway).  So bottom line is the MAP sensor on top of the manifold will probably never match "Desired Boost" - although it should get close at WOT. I'm also guessing manifold pressure will be lower since air is being sucked out of the intake manifold and in to the valves - that and the combined larger volume of the manifold.

Application: You could create a differential gauge as discussed previously to see if your turbos were keeping up with the requested boost - could be useful to discover boost leaks etc...

Desired Boost
(This won't read vacuum but does vary slightly with barometric pressure - note I am manually subtracting 14.7 psi from this equation so zero boost is actually 0 and not atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi.  You can keep these in kpa by deleting the *.145-14.7 you just need to be consistent with all of your formulas)

PID: 220466
Equation: ((256*A)+B)/128*.145-14.7
Deg: PSI

Throttle Inlet Pressure Sensor
PID: 22033E
Equation: ((256*A)+B)/128*.145-14.7
Deg: PSI

Intake Manifold pressure - i.e. Boost Gauge Discussed on page 14 (already in Torque with a different PID.  I would actually recommend using Torque's built in boost gauge over this one as I believe the one in Torque is correctly compensating for actual barometric pressure.  If you knew the correction factor for your elevation you could adjust the 14.7 number in the equation below and it should close enough.  In MN at my elevation it was off by about a 1/2 PSI)
PID: 22F40B
Equation: A*.145-14.7

Catalyst Temp (Already in Torque)
PID:  22F43C
Equation: ((((256*A)+B)/10)-40)*1.8+32
Units: Deg. F

Torque Control Requested (Used during shifting to reduce torque...aka torque management.)
2203AF  returns 0 with car off...Determined this just tells you where the torque reduction request came from...i.e. Transmission, Lean Decel, Tip in...not terribly interesting so I'm leaving it alone for now.

Misfire Monitor
PID 220700
Response of "0" is interpreted from a scan tool response of 00820000 - need to figure this one out but my car never misfires...so may be challenging.

Misfire Trips  This is an incremental counter that will keep counting up (larger value) as long as you don't have any significant misfire events during the current drive cycle.  If it sees too many misfires then it will reset to 0.  I use this to make sure the car is running properly and this way you only have to check it every so often rather than catch misfires as they happen (although severe misfires will set other codes and you will probably notice them)
PID 2216DC
Equation: (256*A)+B

Current Misfires
PID 220345
Equation (256*A)+B  ?? (still investigating as this may return 4 bytes of data which would require the use of the C and D variables in the equation)  Car isn't misfiring so it is difficult to test...

Injector Fault (Note this is "bit encoded" so it will need interpretation...) May have to create a separate gauge for each injector...
PID: 220394
Equation: {Still working on it}  It returns 00000000 which I believe represents up to 8 cylinders (we obviously only have six) so a 00000001 means cylinder 1.  00000010 means 2 etc...?

Tire pressures: Discussed in detail on page 5.

6/12/14 update on Tire Pressures:  We can't get Torque to respond to these PIDs for the 2011 as I believe they are in a different module that it refuses to access...the 2011's are on MSCAN which may be preventing it and the 2013's have a BCM on the HSCAN which means the address is probably different.  No luck for now...

2013+ tire pressures (psi):

LFTP
PID: 222813
Equation: (((256*A)+B)/3+22/3)*0.145

LRTP
PID: 222816
Equation: (((256*A)+B)/3+22/3)*0.145

RFTP

Equation: (((256*A)+B)/3+22/3)*0.145

RRTP
PID: 222815
Equation: (((256*A)+B)/3+22/3)*0.145

Why can't I see ....?
Many people have asked for certain gauges such as oil pressure, oil temperature, and exhaust gas temperature.  They aren't available via any scan tool for one simple reason.  The physical sensors don't exist on the SHO.  If the ECU doesn't have a sensor to read there definitely won't be a PID to grab for it.

PID Installation Instructions:

{Updated file 9/9/2015}
Bulk Import: (Note I'm not sure this will really be easier for someone that isn't a little familiar with windows and basic computer functions.  You may be better off manually entering them one at a time – see procedure below.)

The following will let you add all of the PIDs defined in this post to Torque via the "Import" feature on Torque.

Your first step is to hook up your phone to your computer via a USB cable (the one you more than likely charge your phone with).  You can do this in other ways as well but you need to put the attached "Ford EcoBoost Ext PIDs.csv" file in the proper Torque directory on the phone. Open up a file explorer and then navigate to the drive letter that is your phone.  You should see some directories (varies by phone and number of storage cards).  Torque should be on your internal SD card (Unless you told it to go someplace else or your phone directed it there) and the directory you are looking for is labeled ".torque".  If you don't see .torque you are going to have to "show hidden files" in windows explorer – this varies by version so I suggest you Google it.  You then select the "Extended PIDs" directory.  Copy the attached file in to that directory and then disconnect your phone.

Once that file is there you can select the "settings" menu off the main screen...scroll down to "Custom PIDs" and then "Import".  You should see "Taurus PIDs" listed in the menu.  Select them and then go add them to your screen!

WARNING: You may choose to "clear the list" of the existing custom PIDs to keep things cleaned up, but keep in mind this will strand any gauges you already have on the screen unless they are named exactly the same as in the import file.  This means you will have to add them back to the screen one at a time and you may be "irritated". :)


Adding a single PID:
Add a custom PID in Torque by going to the "Settings" section off the main screen.
Enter the following for the fields it prompts you for:
"OBD2 Mode and PID"  =  221E1C
"Long Name" = Trans Temp
"Short Name" = Trans T
"Minimum Value" = -40
"Maximum Value" = 260
"Scale Factor" = 1
"Unit Type" = deg
"Equation" = (((signed(A)*256)+B)*(9/8)+320)/10
Leave the OBD Header blank

Adding gauges to your Torque Screen:

Go to the Realtime Information display from the main menu and then find a place on the screen you'd like to put your new gauge.  Long press and then "Add Display".  Pick a gauge type and then scroll to find your new PIDs.  Position it on the screen and then repeat the whole process until your gauges are all populated on the screen.

*Final note.  If you open the .CSV file in Excel be careful as it will immediately interpret two of the PIDS as "exponential notation" and hose them up...You can open the file without issue just don't save it unless you know what you are doing!  Your safest bet is to open it with Notepad :)

12/31/2015 Update: Fixed the Knock formula one last time to be consistent with other threads.  Also updated attached file to include both 2010-12 and 2013+ specific PIDs.  You will obviously only be able to use the PIDs that correspond to your year.

Wish I could be of more help in this project cause I'm sure enjoying the results. In that spirit it seems the best I can do is try plugging the PID's in ASAP and giving you back my observed results for what ever aid that can be. My extended testing results on the knock PID is just non responsive. Tough because a non response is the desired reading, but a hick up once in a great while would be reassuring that it indeed was functioning.
I will try the edit on the knock PID, and I'll try the Cyl head temp, the charge air temp, maybe the IAT2 (especially neat if we find out where that sensor is residing)

Larry - The Knock pid should give you values if you just drive around on the interstate at light throttle.  You should see negative numbers which means it is adding timing...positive numbers are what you want to avoid during WOT.  That said I never see those much either.

IAT2 is reading after the CAC at least that's the way it is in Forscan. I have done data logging with both IAT and IAT2 the second is always higher than the first. I also forgot to reconnect the sensor just before the throttle body and I got a 0 reading and error code to go with it.

Exactly, I will try to work out the delta between the 2. I would guess this would have an impact at the track. What would be really cool if we had a way to trig the fans to high speed when in the line for a run at the track. I had noticed how the IAT2 temp climbed like crazy before a run when I was data logging with my lap top last year. This is also true as my best time was doing back to back runs with minimal time before the next run.

We could do this via the PCM if we knew the PID and the bits to set...assuming we had a program that could transmit that on the CAN bus. I know Torque can do that for predefined tests and such but I don't know about individual PIDs...

I would assume that it's the temp of the CAC it's self. I dunno if there is a sensor there. I believe that that the map sensors can also read temperature. Hence the 0 temp reading I got above when I disconnected the map sensor right before the TB. Now that you mention it. The sensor before the TB could be CAC temp and the one in the top of the intake could be IAT2.

Torque has advanced plugins for just about every other manufacture out there. See below for the Nissan adv plugin. But not ford?

(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/09/hamaguge.jpg)

The IAT2 seems to be working correctly. However ambient was acting weird. Ambient was 17C but I was getting a reading of 13C?

I can confirm that IAT1 is the sensor in the air box, CAC is just after the CAC just before the TB and IAT2 is the one on top of the intake manifold. Readings as follows IAT1 21C CAC 33C a and IAT2 41C ambient was 18C. At the time of the sample. According to Forscan.

Well I added a couple of gauges to my display and tweaked/rearranged. It will take a while to get used to the new arrangement.
About the ambient, you can see that the OE displays a temp at the top of the NAV screen. That NAV temp is almost always cooler than the Torque Ambient. Must be two sensors/locations. I think one is right side in front of the radiator. That is the only one I have found.
I'm still puzzled by the CAC reading. It seems to read a temp unrelated to the two IAT's although cooler so it must be reading the CAC temp rather than the air going through it. I would have imagined air temp readings at all three points. Actually four points if you count the ambient.
The Cyl head temp appears to be reading the exact same as the coolant temps for me too. Makes me wonder which of the readings is in error.

That's a lot of gauges Larry!  I like it. :) 

I figured out the wastegate status %:
PID 220462
Formula A/128*100

I also found the PID for the PWM modulation of the rear clutch.  PWM = Pulse Width Modulation...it sends more current to the rear clutch to tell it to "lock up" more and engages the AWD.  0% is not engaged and 100% is obviously full engaged.  I haven't tried to see if Torque can actually read the 4x4 module or not as this parameter isn't in the PCM.  Still have to figure out the formula but since its a percentage it shouldn't be hard.

AWD PWM Clutch Status
PID  22D128
Formula TBD

I also don't know that the CAC and IAT2 readings don't make sense...the air would be at its coolest right out of the intercooler.  IAT2 is literally sitting on top of the hot intake/motor and the air has to travel in a pipe (no matter how short) to get there which will cause additional heating.  I actually think it is probably pretty close.

Misfire Monitor
PID 220700

Returns a very long response of "00820000"  indicating 0 misfires on the scantool.  Need to think about this one for a bit.

I am also updating the original (1st) post so you don't have to go hunting through all of the individual posts to pull everything together.

I have an excel CSV file I am working on that will just let you import all of these in Torque as well.

I'm not sure about this one, when taking the readings with Forscan CAC is higher than IAT1 and then IAT2 is a bit higher than that, maybe someone on here can give us some more info on this. Which to me makes sense, I believe that the CAC cannot cool the air after the turbos even close to ambient.

Okay I actually agree with you - I just didn't state it very well.  I guess I meant to say the CAC should be the coolest of the two readings between CAC and IAT2.  I did not mean to imply it would be ambient.  That said if you aren't creating boost then the air isn't being compressed and therefore very little heat would get added by the turbochargers.  I can see the CAC temp being close to ambient in this situation.  Now if you are getting on the car then the temp should definitely rise above ambient (and it seems to?).
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: Larrylu on June 09, 2014, 11:06:19 AM
This morning test ride at one point showed ambient at 68, IAT 1 at 79, CAC at 35, and IAT 2 at 116.  Hate to add my confusion to the mix but my IAT readings all make sense to me but the CAC seems way cool. Like way lower than ambient. Now if the CAC was chilled and we were reading CAC chiller temp and not CAC air temp, all my readings would be making perfect sense. The CAC is not chilled....right?

Larry, when you say you 'added a couple of gauges' how did you do that? My Torque Pro app doesn't offer CAC or IAT2.  Did you add the PID's or what was the process?  Keep it 5th grade level if you can, I'm a hardware/pull a motor kinda guy not a software/write code kinda guy :-[
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: Larrylu on June 09, 2014, 12:43:22 PM
QuickSilver I'm the student in this thread just following instructions.   One of the first thing you run into with Torque Pro is the lack of some of the cool gauges that other Mfgs seem to have out there but not for us Ford folks. It seems Ford PID's are very hard to come by. Then ecoboostsho decides to singlehandedly make some PID's available for the rest of us grateful users by reverse engineering. He has already put out some very good instructions for using the "add custom PID" menu in Torque and you should be able to easily find it.  If not ...speak up. Someone will help. I will pause to let more knowledgeable people handle your questions

Great job on this! Next step will be to make a csv file so people can easily import the PIDs into Torque
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ecoboostsho on June 09, 2014, 01:56:42 PM
PID Installation Instructions: (also updated in first post)

Bulk Import: (Note I'm not sure this will really be easier for someone that isn't a little familiar with windows and basic computer functions.  You may be better off manually entering them one at a time – see procedure below.)

The following will let you add all of the PIDs defined in this post to Torque via the "Import" feature on Torque.

Your first step is to hook up your phone to your computer via a USB cable (the one you more than likely charge your phone with).  You can do this in other ways as well but you need to put the attached "Taurus PIDs.csv" file in the proper Torque directory on the phone. Open up a file explorer and then navigate to the drive letter that is your phone.  You should see some directories (varies by phone and number of storage cards).  Torque should be on your internal SD card (Unless you told it to go someplace else or your phone directed it there) and the directory you are looking for is labeled ".torque".  If you don't see .torque you are going to have to "show hidden files" in windows explorer – this varies by version so I suggest you Google it.  You then select the "Extended PIDs" directory.  Copy the attached file in to that directory and then disconnect your phone.

Once that file is there you can select the "settings" menu off the main screen...scroll down to "Custom PIDs" and then "Import".  You should see "Taurus PIDs" listed in the menu.  Select them and then go add them to your screen!

WARNING: You may choose to "clear the list" of the existing custom PIDs to keep things cleaned but keep in mind this will strand any gauges you already have on the screen unless they are named exactly the same as in the import file.  This means you will have to add them back to the screen one at a time and you may be "irritated". :)


Adding a single PID:
Add a custom PID in Torque by going to the "Settings" section off the main screen.
Enter the following for the fields it prompts you for:
"OBD2 Mode and PID"  =  221E1C
"Long Name" = Trans Temp
"Short Name" = Trans T
"Minimum Value" = -40
"Maximum Value" = 260
"Scale Factor" = 1
"Unit Type" = deg
"Equation" = (((signed(A)*256)+B)*(9/8)+320)/10
Leave the OBD Header blank

Adding gauges to your Torque Screen:

Go to the Realtime Information display from the main menu and then find a place on the screen you'd like to put your new gauge.  Long press and then "Add Display".  Pick a gauge type and then scroll to find your new PIDs.  Position it on the screen and then repeat the whole process until your gauges are all populated on the screen.

*Final note.  If you open the .CSV file in Excel be careful as it will immediately interpret two of the PIDS as "exponential notation" and hose them up...You can open the file without issue just don't save it unless you know what you are doing! :)

(I removed the file from this post and am going to just leave it on the first post so I only have to update it one place.  Just click on the "1" to get to the first page of the post.)

QuickSilver you might want to just add one custom formula at a time by following the above "add a single PID" instructions. I think it's easier to start with.  After inputting all the info at the bottom of the screen you will see a test button press that and if you get a "result" you can press the save button. Then go to your gauge display to where you can add a gauge and when you scroll the list of available gauges you will find the one created by your new custom PID.

I don't know if it will help anyone but I also use an App called "Smart App Locker". I utilize an older Droid phone as my permanent Torque screen. It doesn't have cell service enabled (or even a SIM chip).  I've always been worried someone will swipe it and then technically have access to my Google account (email, etc...)

The app lets you put a password on all the apps on the device and essentially locks every app including the app store.  You can't uninstall anything either.  I lock everything out but Torque and maps/navigation.  At least if someone gets the device they won't get my data.

It looks that way, I went through Forscan and I couldn't find it. There is Engine Low oil pressure. But no # to go with it. Weird?. I did find a few other ones that were cool, mostly useless but I found them interesting. Tire pressure is available, also the temp for the heated steering wheel (if equipped) and the seat cushions.

Thank you. Nice to have confirmation of the labels and locations. I did believe that the sensor to measure boost was the one on top of the manifold which we have been swapping out from 2BAR to 3BAR. Very interesting to learn that it is the sensor upstream of the T/B that has that chore. Interesting also because that sensor is already a 3BAR.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ShoBoat on June 10, 2014, 10:59:57 AM
It would make sense that the CAC sensor is a 3 Bar. Considering the spike in pressure when the TB snaps shut. I was surprised to learn that they are both Temp and pressure.

6 Hours? Holy crap. I know that with previous GM's I had, just changing the pressure caused the sensor to "ping" the ECU. for example. Let out 10 psi and add it back in. I will check with Forscan to see if this is the case with Ford.

Great work on the rear clutch! Can't wait to see that in action.

Low oil pressure is just a physical switch that gets toggled at a set pressure.  IE above x psi = open switch | below x psi = closed switch = dummy light saying "low oil" turns on.

Okay - progress on the tire pressures.  Not there quite yet though.  It is an interesting one as it was only giving me two PIDs back for all four tire pressures.  It turns out that one of the PIDs is for either the left side or the right side...or possibly both front tires or both back tires together.  In other words they are in pairs.  Each PID returns 2 values for two tires. So 2 PIDs gets you 4 tires. 

The PIDs are 224140 and 224141.  They return a decimal value that gets divided by 3 and that gives you the pressure in KPA.  At least I think...I am trying to verify all this.  The challenge is two fold.  First my scan tool pretends it knows which tire is the "front left" etc...well that is great until you rotate them a few dozen times...then they don't match up so it's made correlating the values challenging.  The next issue is that I have to figure out which variable in the formula to use for individual tires.  It might be as simple as A/3 and B/3 (multiply each of those 0.145 if you want PSI).

As soon as I have time to verify all this I will but if you get bored you could try it and see if the results make sense to you!  :)

Actually if that doesn't work you may need to try this:

((A*256)+B)/3 for one tire   and ((C*256)+D)/3 for the other.  You would create two gauges each with the same PID but each gauge would use the different formula.  I don't think the first set of formula's I gave you will work since they have to be numbers bigger than 256 but give it a try both ways.

Any luck yet? :)  Since the tire pressures are only available out of module that hangs off the MSCAN bus (as opposed to the HSCAN the PCM is on) I am actually most curious if Torque can read them at all.  Forscan can do this which is why we can see them with that tool.  As mentioned before if you don't have an MX or equivalent adapter you probably won't be able to get to the MSCAN bus to read anything.

That would be in the "Header" section I believe it is called within the gauge configuration itself.  It defaults to "Auto" if you leave it blank but you can specify the module if you know it. i.e. PCM, TCM

No dice, the name for the module is BdyCM which is short for body control module. torque will not accept the header. (http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/12/utezu5ep.jpg)

I wonder if there is any other way to get torque pointed in the right direction.

No joy here either.  I did determine that the PIDs are in pairs and it is a "front" and "rear" grouping.  I just realized you have a 2013...the 2011 doesn't have a BCM...we have a "Smart Junction Box" which is indeed on the MSCAN.  The BCM in your car is on the HSCAN so I would think it would be more likely yours would work but maybe the address changed.  I was hoping this was the reason you weren't getting a response and maybe I still could, but I've tried everything including trying to figure out the hex address of the module so I could plug that right in to Torque but it doesn't look like it is going to happen.

Also I figured out the "Torque Control Requested" PID and it is actually just an indicator of what function requested the Torque Control not the value itself.  Values ranged from "Transmission" to "Tip In" to "Lean Decel".  I can map them if anyone is terribly interested but I don't see a ton of value in them from a performance standpoint so I'm going to let that die on the vine...

Are these the Hex addresses? Can I just enter them as is? If that's the case I may be of more use. I can read these from my laptop.

Yes they are just Hex addresses.  Your screen shot is the hex address of the PID itself not of the module...You could use a serial sniffer and find it out in theory.  Unless there is another screen in OBDWiz (haven't seen that one before) that gives it to you.  Send me a PM if you are interested and I can get you set up...it really isn't hard to figure out the addresses with the right tool.

Just a little feedback on the air temps. I noticed that starting from cold, at first all the temps were pretty close to ambient. As it warmed up, IAT stayed very close to ambient but CAC and IAT2 started to warm as expected.  What was puzzling to me is that for a short period of time, maybe 4 or 5 minutes the CAC was running about 6 degrees warmer than IAT2. Is there any explanation that you can think of that would explain the CAC being warmer than IAT2?  A little later in the warm up process, the IAT2 exceeded the CAC and it looked normal to me from that point on. Wonder if coolant flow or closed  T-Stat could cause CAC sensor to warm faster than intake manifold?
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ecoboostsho on June 13, 2014, 08:11:17 AM
Hmm...good question.  I paid attention to it this morning and while CAC was close to IAT2 just after start up it never actually exceeded it.  I'm guessing if you got on the turbocharger it would heat the air up quickly...showing a higher CAC reading...I would only expect IAT2 to be lower if the manifold was still "heat sinking" because it wasn't warmed up yet but I don't know after 4 or 5 minutes I would expect it to be pretty warm?  It is also definitely possible that the CAC temp is a little off...it was interpreted where as the IAT2 formula was very straightforward to figure out.  I would definitely trust IAT2 over CAC when in doubt at this point.

Were you running the AC? I wonder if that would have any impact? I believe that the CAC is sandwiched between the rad and the AC.

Climate control was engaged but outside temps were low to mid 60's. I repeated the trip and the results this am. I noticed that after the initial odd differential ( the CAC being warmer than the IAT2 by about 5 degrees), as they moved to a more normal readings that both readings were in motion simultaneously. The CAC was cooling as the IAT2 was warming. This happened pretty rapidly so that in a matter of a minute or less the CAC was reading cooler than the IAT2. I am running the 170 degree stat. What if the CAC warms more quickly than the IAT2 while T-Stat is closed then cools quickly as the stat opens and normal circulation begins. Possibility??
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ShoBoat on June 13, 2014, 01:02:54 PM
That would actually make sense, the turbos are heated by the exhaust, the intake manifold is a big hunk of aluminum. It would be reasonable that the air in the CAC for a short time be higher than the intake manifold. As the intake manifold is working like a big heat sink.

I have been doing some data logging with Torque and Forscan, just to double check the accuracy of torque vs Forscan. For the most part it looks like the PIDs are really close with the exception of boost? On torque there is the Boost/Vac gauge, I get a max  boost of 16psi of Forscan I get 14.5 as my max. that is quite a bit of difference. I am wondering which is correct. I know that from some of the guys on here they are seeing more than 15psi of boost. I have the 3 bar sensor. Any thoughts?

Yes but I'm thinking that the gear number must be available because it is displayed in the speedo cluster as "1,2,3...." when in manual. I'd like to display that in Torque while driving in "D".

Understood. If there was a way in Torque to display a value based on a number...I.e. 4.84=1 then we could do it. So far none of the pids give you a direct number....I tried some of the ones millennium listed and they didn't work for my car or weren't what you are after.

Gear indicator works!  YEHAW!  I was a bit leery at first as it did not register Park, then it did not register Reverse. It sat there and was stuck on 1. But from that moment on it was faultless. Went up and down the gears just like hoped it would. It makes a stellar addition to my primary page of gauges which by the way would look not nearly as impressive if not for your tireless efforts.

It measures the relative learned curve of the current octane that you are using I believe. For example if you change gas grades it will drop to a lower number. Or if you like playing with ethanol this would be useful as you could tell if the car has adjusted fully to the new gas. I believe that the car might pull more timing until it has fully "learned" the octane value of the gas you are currently. If you pull the battery to reset, it will drop to 50%. It may take up to 2 full tanks of gas to full learn. I messed around with this in Forscan in the past.

Some reader gauges show this as -1.0 to 1.0 (-1 being high octane),
FORScan represents it as 0% - 100%, totally not sure what it means though. Could directly mean what the ECU thinks the Octane of the fuel is or it is a compensation %

If anyone can get the equation or verify them, it will help the community tremendously.

steering wheel angle  {No Data} - use header ABS
223302
formula = "((signed(A)*256+b)/10-780"

lateral angle (g)  {No Data} - use header ABS
222b0c
"SIGNED(A)"
Formula = i not sure

BFLHP Brake fluid line hydraulic pressure 9kpa) {No Data}
222b0d

Transmission Gear Engaged {No Response}
221e1f

Gear command by Output state {Response but give me a hex 10 or 8 depending on gear shift selector position...not sure what to do with this one.}
221e12
Formula = A (direct convert to decimal)

In Gear? {Didn't Test}
221e04
- 621e0400000000 = No

cataylst temp {Already in torque?} - my torque cataylst temp goes up to 760 deg celcius.. was suspicious so i went and find the PID
22f43c
"((A*256)+B)-40"

fuel level {Already in Torque ? but this did work for me} - yep
22f42f
(A/255*100)

torque control request {Had this on my front page...wasn't terribly interesting.  Just told you what was requesting Torque reduction not the actual amount.} - yeah it is just the mode it is requesting
2203af
- 6203af0c = anti-theft

maX diff btw TP1 AND TP2 {Got a response but it was only every 0 or 1 degree.  Would not expect it to vary much unless something was broken?}
2203A7
6203A700 = 0 DEG

INLET AIR TEMP FAULT {Didn't test. MIL would Light} - just gives a bit encoded result ("yes"/no")
220700
0800000 = NO FAULT

ENGINE TOTAL DIST (STARTUP?) {Didn't test}
22DD01

LEARNED RELATIVE OCTANE ADJUST {Works but formula is potentially different...see previous post}
2203E8
DCEC = 54.81%
"A/256*100"

CLUTCH A SLIP  (REV/MIN) {No Data} - this one works for me, might be just need header for you guys
221EBB
"((A*256)+B)*(1/4)"

CLUTCH B SLIP {No Data} - this one works for me, might be just need header for you guys
221EBC
"((A*256)+B)*(1/4)"

TRANS AXLE (GEAR RATIO) MEASURED {Already have this on first page}
221E16
F143 = 15.079:1
((A*256)+B) / 4096

726 Header - for battery stuff  {No Data}
BATT AGE
224027

1 = YES
621EA000010001

ACC COMP STATE {didn't test} - this just tells if air cond compressor is on/off
22099B
0000= OFF

ACC PEDAL POSITION %  {worked but formula for me was just A/2 to get a 99.9% value...there are a ton of these in Torque already although none of them get me to 100%...}
22032B
Formula = "A/256*100" <-- try this formula it works. (FF = 256.. so if 256/2 = 128 points)
note that this value = 0 when you are using cruise control as it measure actual pedal position of the accelerator. This position % is the raw read of the pedal position.

Thanks a ton for posting this.  I did some quick checking and got the following results which I will Post in {} above so I don't have to retype every PID.

You guys are very welcomed!

Larry...when you say gear indicator do you mean 1,2,3...? Because you can infer the gear you are in easily with the gear ratio PID we found already.

Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk

Yes but I'm thinking that the gear number must be available because it is displayed in the speedo cluster as "1,2,3...." when in manual. I'd like to display that in Torque while driving in "D". Reminds me of a Suzuki bike I had years ago which had a digital gear indicator for the six speed. I liked it!

Gear command by Output state
221e12
GIVES GEAR RESULT 0,1,2,3,4,5,6

I will have to go back and see if any of the entries I made are possibly not permitting my 0 reading. So far I've seen 1 through 6.

No if you go beyond around 80% it's past open and closing.

Makes sense. So the original formula is valid I just think the logic is dumb.  80% shouldn't mean all the way open. Doh!

Thanks Mike

It's not the formula, in FORScan it is also like that. I think the max I have ever seen is 77% and it only gets that far by 3 gear in a WOT run from a dead stop.

Hi Ecoboost, i have double check and your A/2 formula is actually the correct formula. Note that this PID gives the accelerator pedal reading, and should show 0-100% range or 99.9% to be precise. It will also show 0% when you are on cruise control since you are not pressing the accelerator pedal itself.

Thanks Millinnium! 

I also spent some time this morning with the AWD modulation % (engages the rear wheel clutch as required) and couldn't get the previous PID to work.  I then realized you need a "Header" address of 726 plugged in.  Works like a charm now.  Will update the first post.

For what it's worth I've been running with a working Knock Retard gauge for a couple of days, and not in a WOT situation but in more moderate and varied driving I've racked up a -5 and a +4.   Sounds exactly like what was previously reported.

Those that are interested in the Learned Octane Adjust,

the readings in HEX and the result converted to % are:

DCEC = 54.81%

D145 = 73.01%

but i can't figure out the maths behind it. HEX converted to Decimal will make DCEC > D145 but the % result intepreted is the opposite...

If you look up a few threads we've got it figure out I believe on Page 8.  On my car if I flash a new tune in it the LROA starts at 0 and after a long pull in 3rd and 4th at WOT jumps to 100% and then on my car it has slowly backed down to 75% over time.   I'm guessing I could use a little more octane but it is still on the positive side...

I will have to see if I can get that PID on my car.  We can get 100's more of these pretty easily (I am just using a serial sniffer and watching the CAN bus using a Scan tool) the tricky part is always the equation.  If you can get me two points and two hex values we can calculate a potential formula assuming it is a linear response. 

i.e. if you know 1FA4 is -5.75 then just get me another value pair and we can plug it in to a basic line/slope equation and try it out.

Figured out something kind of cool today with Torque.  I was watching the Fuel pump Desired gauge and trying to compare it to the "Actual" to see how close they were.  It then occurred to me that it would be ideal to have this calculated and displayed as a gauge.  The idea being if you are at the track and/or running E85 you could start to see if your pump was getting behind and fuel pressure was dropping - which would be bad.  I then stumbled across an interesting way to subtract two PIDs in Torque (on a Prius site of all places!). 

You just create a new custom PID but you leave the "PID" field blank and then enter the PIDs in the formula section.  The trick is you have to reference each PID EXACTLY by name...no typos allowed.  We had figured out "Desired" earlier and while the "Actual" is already available in Torque I found out the PID ID the usual way figuring sometimes the Ford PID is actually better than the standard one due to more frequent updates.

So first make sure the following two custom PIDs are already defined in Torque.

Fuel Pump pressure "desired"
Name:  Fuel Pump Desired Pressure
PID:  2203dc
torque Equation: ((256*A)+b)*10*.145  readout in PSI.
Unit: PSI

Fuel Pump Rail Pressure2  (Already in Torque but I am calling it out specifically)
Name: Fuel Pump Rail Pressure2
PID: 22F423
Equation:  ((256*A)+b)*10*.145  readout in PSI.
Unit: PSI

Then add another custom PID in torque but as stated leave the actual PID field blank.  The PID name you are referencing is what is in between the {}  and as stated above the long names need to match exactly.

Differential Fuel Pump Pressure (Uses two previous PIDs to calculate a Torque "Virtual PID" and display the results!)
PID:
Name: Fuel Pressure Differential
Equation:  (VAL{Fuel Pump Desired Pressure}) - (VAL{Fuel Pump Rail Pressure2})
Unit: PSI

I did this and it works great!  the only thing I'm not sure of is the order the PIDs are all being scanned...If one PID was at the beginning of a scan and the other was at the end of scan this could create a larger "discrepancy" than is really there.  Still fun to watch though!

You could do the same thing with requested Air/Fuel vs Commanded Air/Fuel to see how far off the car is...kind of cool!

As always I updated the first post so you don't have to search through all this.

This new functionality reminds me of the process one had to go through to get a boost gauge with the MyCal Touch. Makes Torque a pretty powerful and flexible tool.

Hi Ecoboost, i have tried your formula  ((256*A)+B)/49152*100) but not getting the same result as what FORScan is showing.

For example:

Hex DCEC which FORScan calculated to 54.81% if plugged to your formula = 56556/49152*100 = 115.06%

Hex D145 which FORScan calculated to 73.01% if plugged to your formula = 53573/49152*100 = 108.99%

This is why i say the formula is not correct since Hex DCEC is mathematically smaller than Hex D145, yet the calculated percent value from FORScan shows it as a larger percentage.

Okay - given the two data points you've given I did a little math and the equation you should be using is (not 100% positive here but give it a shot).

((256*A)+B)*(-0.0000610124)+3.998717499

Yes I went crazy with the precision after the decimal points...and note that is multiplying a negative number NOT multiplying and then minus.  It's just Y=mX+B format based on the points provided assuming I calculated it correctly.

Weirdly enough this formula and the one I figured out for the Taurus are not as far off as they might appear.  If you calculate out 100% in this formula it equates to roughly 49152 but yours has a negative slope so smaller values mean larger numbers (which is what you noted).

Try this and see if it works.  It's getting late here and my math may be off...the only other option is that your car is using the -1 to +1 referenced elsewhere and those values provided are actually signed binary numbers...but my brain hurts thinking about it right now so try this first. :)

Only two remain from my original wish list....namely EGT and transmission gear indicator. Looks like one of those might be on this list- transmission gear engaged. Quite a list indeed!  Thank you!

Ill See if I can pull the PID from Forscan.

Here are the PIDs for the TPMS

LF 228131
RF 228141
RR 228151
LR 228161

I get a response from the car but the equations are not working at all. Any help with this one would be great!

Sorry it doesn't seem like EGT is possible on the Taurus. Not found in FORScan.

But I found this one

Transfer Case Temperature

PID 22070D

I am using the formula from the transmission temp on page one and it's not quite right. It's really close but not quite there.

i.e. if you know 1FA4 is -5.75 then just get me another value pair and we can plug it in to a basic line/slope equation and try it out.

1FA4 = -5.75A
1FA3 = -5.81A
1F5F = -10.06A

Equation is: (((A*256)+B)/16)-511.7

Transfer Case Temperature

PID 22070D

I am using the formula from the transmission temp on page one and it's not quite right. It's really close but not quite there.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I haven't seen this one yet!  If its really labeled "Transfer Case" I'm assuming that would be the PTU?  I would love to have this.  Then again I keep forgetting you've got a 2013...I wonder if they added that temp on those models with all the PTU failures in the previous years.  Do you know what "module" was responding to this?  PCM/BCM/AWD4x4? etc... You can try and dig up the other formula we "were" using for the transmission...Or if you give me two values from the serial sniffer (the corresponding HEX responses) and the value at the same time in Forscan or another scan tool I can possibly figure out a formula for you if its a linear response to temp.  Anyone with a 2010-2012 you can try to put 761 in the "header" field to get a response from the 4x4 module to see if the temp is in there...or leave it blank for the PCM.

I tried to make a gauge based on a formula between 2 PID's. I think my efforts are mostly right. I wanted to replace my 4 air temp readings with 1 that would give the difference between IAT 2 And Ambient. Sort of a 1 gauge Heat Soak reading.  My result is reading the same as my IAT 2 which leads me to believe the problem in the formula is in the Ambient PID. One difference is that the Ambient PID is not a custom PID like the IAT 2. I wonder if this nice function is limited to just custom PID's and might not work with the ones packaged with Torque.

Post by: ecoboostsho on June 19, 2014, 01:43:55 PM
That's possible. I made a custom PID for my previous example. That said I can easily get you the PID for IAT and you can create one with a different long name.

Also the transfer case PID didn't work on my 2011...

Larry - IAT is as follows:

PID: 22F40F
Equation (for degrees F): (A-40)*1.8+32

Name it something like "Intake Air Temperature 1" and give your custom calc PID a shot.  I didn't have time to try it myself. Obviously make sure both your PIDs are in the same units - either degree C or degree F.

No go on the ambient temp...the PID is 229924 but it is in the HVAC module on the 2010-2012 so I can't get to it on the MSCAN bus with Torque...

Too bad. Torque offers a built in Ambient. Do they have another way of accessing it?  Don't think we can "edit" the stock PID's.  Like we can't rename it.  I guess the closest that I can come is with your PID for IAT then. Depending on conditions IAT is 5 to 30 degrees warmer than ambient. What do you think about compensating for the average warmness of the IAT in the formula. Like adding a 15 degree factor. Bad idea??

If you have ambient reading on your screen, that means there is a pid for it. Also the reading will be a bit off between torque and the car screen display because the ecu is averaging it out like your fuel gauge. (that is what I suspect at least) I have got equal readings on temperature stable days for both the car display screen and torque, and have since significant ambient temperature change taking awhile to register on the car display.

Interesting theory about the averaging. New thought for me. I can see the benefit of averaging on the fuel, but so far not seeing an intended purpose for averaging the ambient though.

He may be on to something...I am sure the outside temp would vary wildly once you are stopped etc. Since its only sending the temp for our viewing pleasure (I.e. the car is using the IAT sensors) it very well could be doing that to keep the outside temp going up 10-20 degrees just because you are at a light...interesting.

Ok I think I've got it.  Torque is just using the internal PID (standard) for ambient.  I didn't know there was one to be honest.  It's just [46]...

So...just create a new custom PID and leave the PID field blank.  Name it something you can remember like "Ambient".  The in the equation field put [46]...if you want Deg. F then use:

[46]*1.8+32

It should give you the value you are after.  You could then create another custom PID and subtract the IAT2 or CAC temp from ambient (or vice versa) to get the delta and monitor that all day long.

I haven't had time to test the whole thing so let me know if it works!

Success I now have a display for Heat Soak. I did have to dink with the formula before I got it to work so you may want to modify your post....or correct me if I'm wrong, but I needed to do this before it would work to give me my ambient

([46]*1.8)+32

Then I just did as you instructed to create the "calculator PID", put both both air temps into it and subtract ambient from IAT2, and voila...total heat gain from ambient to intake manifold. Got to ride with that for a few days to get a sense of readings of open road, idle, city traffic and do on. I think it might be a useful gauge. Thank ecoboostsho for the roadmap all the way!

Few days of driving with the heat soak gauge and so far I'm liking it quite a bit. Still getting used to it but readings on the open road with ambient temps in the high 80's my soak reading was between 30 and 35 degrees. With some stop and go mixed in the soak reading rose about 10 degrees to 40 or 45 degrees. City driving went up to 50-55 degrees and the max reading do far was sitting in the garage idling went to 65 to 70 degrees. This is with the stock airbox and a K&N drop in filter and a 170 degree stat. Coolant temps ran from 178 to 185 degrees.

Desired Boost Pressure  (Still working on the formula...not quite right yet.)
PID: 220466
Equation: A/128*.145
Units: PSI

Injector Fault (Note this is "bit encoded" so it will need interpretation...) May have to create a separate gauge for each injector...
PID: 220394
Equation: {Still working on it}  It returns 00000000 which I believe represents up to 8 cylinders (we obviously only have six) so a 00000001 means cylinder 1.  00000010 means 2 etc...?

Variable Camshaft Actual advance (there are actually two of these - one for each cam.  This is #1)
PID: 220318
Equation: Signed(A)/16  (Not verified yet)

RPM (Already in Torque but this is the Ford PID which may respond faster and eliminate lag?)
PID: 22F40C
Equation: A/4
Units: RPM

Turbo "overboost" condition
PID: 22070
Equation...not sure yet.  "No Fault" returns 00000000 so may be bit encoded?

I will get these on the main page eventually...

This would do it.  Even if you just picked a number for the volumetric efficiency we could calculate all this on the fly in Torque and then you could pick up the delta's.  In other words it wouldn't be totally accurate with the VE but the difference between two intakes would show up.

The other thing i will share with you guys is, if you have dashcommand on a Android Device with 4.4.2 and above, you guys can use the developer option, enable bluetooth HCI snoop , and get the PIDs from when DashCommand communicates with your ECU... freaking awesome.

Sure why not. If you have two values and you are watching the increase/difference between the two readings, I thought it would be easier to have the gauge do the arithmetic. In my case I wanted to see the total heat gained by ambient air as it went through the process of being delivered to the intake manifold so I used the sensors at each extreme. I'm sure it would work just as well using the values of the two middle sensors.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ShoBoat on June 27, 2014, 01:54:17 PM
Just adding to your post above and more questions lol. I have also noticed on torque during the day the ambient temp is always higher than the dash reading. Sometimes by 10C. The dash reflects the current weather data without humidity. For example today it's 27C feels like 32C. The dash reads 27 and the ambient on torque is 34C The ambient is closer to the current weather data plus humidity? Is it possible that it's taking humidity into effect? Or could there be another explanation.

If you downloaded it I suggest you do it one more time...I ended up typing a few additional things.  I need to find a better CSV editor than Excel.  It keeps converting my PIDs to scientific notation and breaking them...I fixed the Catalyst temp but it is exactly the same as Torque from what I can see.  The equation for "Desired Boost" is definitely wrong as well...still working on it.

Post by: Larrylu on June 27, 2014, 02:13:42 PM
I don't have a favorite theory yet. There are times where I see the two temps a good 10 degrees apart and others where they are within one or two degrees. My first excuse was two sensors in different locations. That's a weak theory though I think. The averaging theory for the dash display is certainly interesting and it might be the reason.....just don't know. I hope by observing eventually a solid theory will emerge. Never heard any mention of a humidity sensor.....on the car or in the tablet. The car and the tablet each have GPS sensors and inertia sensors I think? ? ?
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ecoboostsho on July 02, 2014, 08:37:15 AM
I've been messing with the "Desired Boost" PID and it has been driving me crazy, but I think I've finally figured it out for anyone that cares!  It was never matching the boost gauge in Torque and didn't seem linearly related at all so I couldn't figure out the equation.  Then I stumbled on a PID called "Throttle Inlet Pressure Sensor".  If you remember our cars have (at least) two pressure sensors (there is an additional one for barometric pressure as well someplace) - one sitting on top of the manifold (also combined with IAT2) and one right before the throttle plate.  I figured out the throttle plate PID (22033E) and watched that and sure enough that is what tracks to "Desired Boost".  It makes sense actually since there would be a pressure drop across the throttle plate depending on how far it was open (and max is only 80% anyway).  So bottom line is the MAP sensor on top of the manifold will probably never match "Desired Boost" - although it should get close at WOT. I'm also guessing manifold pressure will be lower since air is being sucked out of the intake manifold and in to the valves - that and the combined larger volume of the manifold.

Application: You could create a differential gauge as discussed previously to see if your turbos were keeping up with the requested boost - could be useful to discover boost leaks etc...

Desired Boost  (This won't read vacuum but does vary slightly with barometric pressure)
PID: 220466
Equation: ((256*A)+B)/128*.145-14.7
Deg: PSI

Throttle Inlet Pressure Sensor
PID: 22033E
Equation: ((256*A)+B)/128*.145-14.7
Deg: PSI

Intake Manifold pressure  (already in Torque)

Great work! For anyone using the TB map sensor, keep in mind that you will see some spikes in the reading. If the TB snaps shut at a high boost level there is a slight lag before the BOVs kick in. I have seen readings on mine as high as 30psi in FORScan.

What's the difference between desired boost, and throttle inlet pressure?  Not quite seeing the tasks yet. Also is there a difference in readings between the built in boost (Torque) and the custom PID Intake Manifold Pressure?

Great question, desired boost is essentially the same as commanded boost. This is what the PCM is calling for. The throttle inlet pressure is the reading just before the TB and after the CAC.

Yep!

Larry - as for any difference between Torque and the MAP sensor I don't know just yet.  I will have to track it for a bit and see.  Actual boost should take in to account the barometric pressure as well (the sensor above probably doesn't).  I don't know if Torque does or not.  Either way it would only change the values slightly unless you live in Denver/mountains etc...

I updated the file on the first page and included a differential pressure gauge for anyone that wants to mess with it.  As long as I didn't typo anything it should be good to go.

So the differential reading would be subtracting the delivered (intake manifold) from the desired (PCM not sensor). Sounds like an interesting reading!

Yup this one sounds like the most promising. Just the fact that you can tell at a glance is something is wrong with the car sounds really interesting. This might even work for detecting flow restrictions. In my case with the S&B filter or a dirty one?

Almost...the only subtle difference is that it is subtracting the delivered pressure BEFORE the throttle plate (not the intake manifold) from the desired (PCM) pressure.  Same concept but intake manifold pressure (i.e. boost gauge pressure) will be lower due to above stated reasons.

If you've got a leaking hose this would show up as a differential pressure loss (number would be positive on the gauge though since it's desired minus actual).  It would be best to baseline your car with known good hoses and then compare it later if you think you have a boost leak to look for differences.

Good you found that!  When I had my turbo going bad the hose on the front turbo was "Porous" according to the dealer and had to be replaced.  I'm not sure how bad it was as I never saw it but I'm pretty sure I had a boost leak as well...this potentially would have helped both situations!

Post by: ecoboostsho on July 02, 2014, 01:54:49 PM
Just a heads up that I tweaked the formula's and the file a bit...I am subtracting 14.7 psi (atmospheric barometric pressure) from the pressure sensor equations so Desired boost is actually 0 when you aren't on the throttle. Same for Throttle Inlet.  I also corrected the Intake manifold pressure equation...it's just "A" multiplied by .145 for PSI.  You will get weird numbers when it is a vacuum reading but it should be useful to reference against the Torque Boost gauge.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2

Can't you stipulate a number greater than 0 as a minimum reading in setting up the PID or in the torque gauge set up?

There is a flex fuel Taurus I believe. Ecu could read the sensor if it had an input available, however the programming would have to be altered. So not likely it would be easy...

So the best way I can explain it is that the car is designed to run on a wide variety of Octane from the factory.  It has to accommodate for Octane as low as 87 I believe.  It doesn't have an actual sensor to do this but "Learns" it from (going to speculate a little bit here) knock or maybe some other parameters.  If you put in 87 the car is going to knock more than when using 93....it sees the knock and probably pulls some timing, but I'm sure there is an algorithm that maybe adds it back in while it is learning to "test" it...if the knock is there under certain conditions then the ECU finally assumes you've put in lower octane gas and switches to a different timing table with lower numbers.  You lose power but the car is still happy.  It then sets the Learned Octane Ratio to a number that loosely corresponds to what it thinks the Octane of the gas is.  Note: If you car is tuned for 93 then use 93 etc....the tune isn't going to compensate appropriately for 87 Octane.  I believe anything over 91 or 93 octane should result in 100% while 87 may put you closer to 0%...

Torque calculates WHP/WTQ so the baseline correlates with the stock dynos I've seen.

Ok i read pages 11 and 12 but i cant figure out what exactly needs to be done. How do i go about doing this?

I use this equation ( [ 46 ] * 1.8 ) + 32 and subtract it from? Kinda lost.. ha.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ecoboostsho on July 06, 2014, 07:52:26 AM
You need to create 3 new PIDs as follows in the format of "Long Name", "Short Name", PID, Equation:

Intake Air Temp 2   IAT2   2203ca   (A-40)*1.8+32   
Ambient Temp   Ambient Temp      [46]*1.8+32   
Ambient to IAT2   Temp Diff      (VAL{Intake Air Temp 2})-(VAL{Ambient Temp})

Then add the gauge Ambient to IAT2 and that should get you the total "heatsoak"...The trick to the third gauge is that there isn't a PID...you leave it blank and then create an equation referencing the first two PIDs you created.

Hope that helps?

So that's the method, and the example formula would get you my heat soak gauge, but you are looking for the differential between CAC and IAT2 right? So substitute your desired PID's into the "calculating" PID. Voila...you have a powerful gauge making capability. One limitation is that I don't think that the built in gauges in Torque work as internal PID's inside this calculating PID.  The custom PID's work great with it though!  Have fun and share your idea/result!

Ok I get it now. What I am looking to do is subtract the air temp by the filter box from the sensor temp right before the throttle body. Since that sensor isn't heat soaked on top of the intake it should give me a more accurate reading of what the intercooler is doing.

Would I just use the equations from page one in place of the ones you just made an example with?

Sorry for the late reply but I couldn't grab this out of the car. 

IAT1

PID: 22F40f
Equation ((A-40)*1.8 )+32

...and yes you can just substitute that in for the formula and calculate the difference.

Yes it will do that I believe.  It regulates the boost to a pre determined level based on throttle and boost level.  If it only wants 11 psi it will open under boost to keep that number.

Can i use the already existing PID for intake air temp? Or do i need to create a new one? If i do what would the formula for that be?
Sorry for the late reply but I couldn't grab this out of the car. 

IAT1

PID: 22F40f
Equation ((A-40)*1.8 )+32

...and yes you can just substitute that in for the formula and calculate the difference.

Is the waste gate % supposed to be showing a value while under throttle? Seems like it's opening under boost...
Yes it will do that I believe.  It regulates the boost to a pre determined level based on throttle and boost level.  If it only wants 11 psi it will open under boost to keep that number.

Ok great! Thank you for the help!

It would make sense to moderate the boost that way. Under heavy throttle  sometimes I see 80%. Must be lots of boost left in these turbos.

Just received free Samsung galaxy tab 2 (7") from Verizon last week with our new contracts...actually walked out only adding $7 to our monthly bill with cell service to both our tablets...we've had car for 3 months now and it's killing me to not be monitoring it...i see there's a couple different wires to hook the tablet up to car...haven't looked in last week so the names I don't remember. ..take it I need to buy the expensive one to achieve best results...was gonna order today but have been busy with sick animal to the vet all day...

Guy on another forum has decided not to do the tablet thing and is selling his MX dongle. That's the one to get in my opinion.  I think I remember him asking $50. If interested PM me for contact info. Only one wire really. Just need to hook the USB charger cord to a hot on ignition fuse if you want auto on and off. If you don't mind plugging and unplugging, and you are not going to stealth your cord, then you don't even have to do that. I did though!

That's the one you want. It's not a harness though. It's a dongle that plugs into the OBD port and hooks to the tablet using Bluetooth.

I highly recommend the asus memo pad hd7. It's basically a nexus minus the google name.  Asus actually make the nexus.
I did a lot of reasearch before I made my decision last year.
One of the main selling points for me was the micro sd slot (up to 32gb) which the nexus does not have.

It's not bad really. It's pretty cramped under the dash drivers side where the fuse box is located. If you are young and flexible no prob. I'm not so I struggled.  I wired a female cig lighter connector to a hot on ignition wire I found on an unused fuse. Then I plugged in a car USB adaptor into that. Then ran the USB under the dash and the rest depends on where you decide to mount your tablet. I mounted mine over the Nav display so I came out with the USB cable from under the speaker grill.

I'd make a good cheerleader cause I really like and enjoy working and learning with it, but I'm not a nerd so it takes me a while sometimes to solve problems. I've been playing with my Tablet with torque for close to a couple of years now and the enjoyment keeps ramping up as I learn more and do more. ecoboostsho in particular has done more to expand the usefulness of Torque in our vehicles than I could have ever envisioned. So I do encourage you and if I can help with advice or info, I'm glad to repay what I have received.

I spent most of my initial efforts on the physical installation. Wiring and mounting because I'm fussy and I had a goal of how I wanted the tablet to work (auto on and off and self maintaining charge). Once I got that accomplished I thought I was done but I found out that Torque is pretty powerful and customizable so the work (or play) continues.

Which one would be best? Bluetooth or wifi? I can accommodate either one. If there isn't a performance difference, I'm thinking Bluetooth to avoid extra data usage.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: Larrylu on July 07, 2014, 04:16:44 PM
You are only communicating from the MX to the tablet a couple of feet away. So data use is not a factor. Speed is important and the MX has proven to be one of the fastest so I think Bluetooth is the way to go. MX turns itself off when car activity stops...another big factor I think.

While you can get a MX to communicate over Wifi or Bluetooth I'm not sure if Torque will recognize the Wifi adapter...Bluetooth looks more like a serial port.

From a pure speed either should be more than adequate.  Bluetooth 3.0 is 24mbps and Wifi (depending on whether it is G or N) is capable of hundred of megabits per second.  However the CAN bus is only 500kbps so either technology is plenty fast enough.

BTW, was watching a couple of shows on House Hunters International.  Seems they have a good vet school out in St. Kitt's.  Maybe paying off those loans is just as much of a headache as med school!

Yeah, I wish I could get awd to work also. I'm also uncomfortable with the knock gauge. It was active in the negatives my entire way to work when cruise was lightly accelerating on slight grades. It was actually pulling timing, not adding. I guess it could be pulling less timing though.

Well it depends on how comfortable you are trying this.  At some point I can hopefully find time to create some screen shots of the whole process.  If you are willing to you can download a free serial port sniffer - I used this one.  http://freeserialanalyzer.com/ (http://freeserialanalyzer.com/)

It has some limitations (30 minute max session time) but works really well and even sees Bluetooth COM port data.  You basically install that on the same laptop as you have your Scanning Software (Forscan works great).  You start Forscan and connect it to the car.  Then select the AWD PID you are after (and just that PID).  Now before you hit the "start" button in Forscan you want to fire up the serial analyzer and then "connect" to the COM port that Forscan is using (this will vary).  Select "Packet View" and then "start" capturing data.  Switch back to Forscan and then start capturing the PID.  You literally need a couple of seconds of data as it will create a lot of lines in the serial analyzer very quickly.

Now comes the fun part.  Using the serial analyzer you can look at the data captured line by line.  You should see alternating Reads and Writes.  When the scantool is requesting a PID it will always start with "22xxxx" where the xxxx is the actual PID for whatever you were scanning.  The response will always be "62xxxx" which will include the same PID.  The next several bytes include the response from the car and they are always in Hexidecimal.  For the AWD PID you would expect a Zero response and you should see a "00" come back.

For the AWD PID you also need to determine the module address.  If you go back to the very beginning of the lines in the serial analyzer you will see a set of ASCII codes it sends to the car to set up the PIDs it is requesting.  You are looking for a line right a the beginning that includes the following:
STCAFCP761, 726.  In this example the 761 is the module address of the AWD unit in a 2011 Taurus.  726 is the address of the scantool I believe.  If you find this command look for the 3 digits right after the STCAFCP...  That should be the module address you are after.  You take this and plug that 3 digit number in to the "Header" portion of Torque.  Add your PID and equation and you should be good to go.

I know that is a lot of info to digest but it isn't as complicated as it sounds once you get in to it.  The hard part is actually figuring out the equation but I think we've got that already for the AWD PID and I don't see why that would have changed in the 2013+ cars. 

Good luck if you try this! I will help how I can:)

Honestly even if you can capture the data stream from the serial analyzer I will decode it for you.  You can export it to a file from the menu.  PM me and I will set you up with my personal email to look at it.

Combustion performance counter? I'll have to check that one out. If you have the MX adapter. You can also do the self checks for each module and perform the adaptions reset. (Kinda like unplugging the battery). Just ensure that you follow the instructions on the screen when doing the maintenance operations.

This is all i have... Wonder if its just not there or if its cause im using a non MX obd. I dont think its adapter related if i am able to see so many others.

What is the PID for the AWD %?

Anyone else with a non PP 13 have any transfercase PID's?


What modules can you see in total?  When Forscan connects initially it should list all of the modules you can see.  Do you just see the PCM?  You can click on a couple of tabs on the initial start up page and get a list.  If you don't have the MX (or something that can read MSCAN) then you won't see all of those modules but I would think the 4x4/AWD modules would be HSCAN (assuming you have the PIDs loaded from the factory.  You appear to be poking around the PCM module from the list of the PIDs displayed?

Some 13s didn't have the awd pids loaded from factory. You might check into that as mine had to have them added.

Weird!?  Is that something the dealer would do?
Yup.

Good luck with that.... Unless you can give them the exact procedure.

Hah. Yeah. I don't see that going smoothly. So if I don't have these PID's does that mean if I try to get my awd gauge activated ( one on the dash display) they would have to add these as well?

Not only will your gauge not display but if there is an issue, the are no pids to communicate a problem.

There is a tsb, and its a pretty simple deal.

Well is that a load of crap.... so is it all SHO's without the PP. Or is it hit and miss? I want to know if my PTU is going to grenade and it would be nice if my car could give me a heads up before it goes. If it goes... I dont like uncertainties.

True, I guess you could add that when you take it in to get the shaft fixed for the recall.

Just out if curiosity how would the average joe know that this is missing? We are in the PCM looking around and found it missing, if you weren't looking for it you would have no idea that anything was missing!

Haha. Yeah it is a bit conspicuous. If most of the dealers don't even know what It is or how to do it then I guess I might be asking for to much. 99% of the cars life I bet the PTU will do just fine weather I was looking at its data or not.

But I'm not the kind of person that just sits around and just goes with the flow. Trail blazing is more my speed.

Along with my washer fluid pump that's bad, the half shaft, license plate bulb housing, and now asking for them to add these PID'S. I don't  think I'm going to make any new friends this weekend.

I would be concerned if they couldn't handle a tsb they have the number for. All they have to do is hook up to IDS, see if the pids are there and if not, download them.

That being said, I will look at the report for my car when I get home tonight and post specific wording as I prefer not to press my luck with High Command when she is at work.

I don't put much of any faith in the dealership anymore.. I usually have to facilitate every action. I would appreciate the specifics when you get time. I just know if i walk in there and say do this TSB they will say... why?

After thinking I copied the attachment over to my tablet in the right folder, still couldn't find it in torque so I just manually loaded some custom PID'S ...

Noticed a difference in the equations for the 2 fuel pump pressure PID'S. ..when lookin at those 2 on 1st page they have .145 compared to 1.145 in the attachment file...haven't got to test which one is right yet.

Hi guys, i have been data logging, and finally, I found a situation where Learned Relative Octane Adjust will go negative, I have captured that HEX 1700 translate to -1.70% on FORScan.

This will mean that so far the 3 readings i have are:
HEX D145  = Decimal (53573) = 73.01%
HEX DCEC = Decimal (56556) = 54.81%
HEX 1700 = Decimal (5888) = -1.70%

The positive values the formula works, but it goes to 300+ when it is suppose to read -1.70%

The PIDs on the first page show 10 * .145 which I just shortened mathwise in the csv file to 1.45.  This is in PSI...if you wanted kpa for some reason you would need to drop the .145 part on the first page OR modify the equation in the file to be just *10.

Hope that helps...

Actually now that you say that I did goof...it does say 1.145 in the file and should have been 1.45.  Nice catch.  The differential pressure still would have calculated correctly since I did it in both places but the value would be off.

Wow...that is going to be a tough one.  If I graph those values they look to be non-linear so I'm not sure what it is doing... Since you don't have a Taurus I am wondering your ECU and the associated PID/formula is trying to produce the -1 to +1 but Forscan is giving weird values.  I don't know why you would even get a negative percent...sorry but I'm stumped on this one.

yeah.. it is an odd one. but it does look like it is showing a possible range of -100% to 100%, note i quoted the wrong HEX, it should be 1700 not 0117 as posted earlier. So converted it is decimal 5888

Depends on speed and ambient but 208 is pretty consistent going 75-80 on the highway. Sometimes higher. I have an alarm set at 230 but it doesn't get near that thankfully. I also tink that sounds a bit high though.

The highest Trans temp I have seen is 194 (at the track). Typically mine is around 175 cruising on the expressway. PTU is typically a bit cooler than the Trans.

Mine is a PP though.

Well I have a PP but its a 2011 so no trans cooler either. That is something you can easily add if you don't have the auto cruise control distance option. (ACC) I believe.

Yup the Trans cooler is pretty easy to add. Several people on this forum have added it after the fact.

I would snagle up a working oil temp or an exhaust gas temp PID but the ones built into Torque do not work, and no custom PID's for those values have been offered up so far at any rate to the best of my knowledge.

Quick question also...should I be using equation for boost gauge from 1st page or file
BTW thanks for catching that.  I was working on a new file which I just uploaded.  The difference I believe was the -14.7 psi as the calculated boost was actually referenced to atmosphere so it read high.  I still recommend using Torque's boost gauge as it looks to be compensated to the actual barometric pressure reading thus it would be more accurate.  The equations we have are still valid for the boost differential pressure however since they are consistent.

Yes, I have been at 100 since I activated the gauge. I would hope so since I'm probably over 99 octane.

No, I think 93 would be 100 on the indicator.

I've also considered that gauge only changes with octane changes hence the "learned".

Not entirely sure though.....

I am used to the octane indicator sitting pretty static at 100% all the time. Today it showed me a new trick I don't understand. I got on the interstate, an set up cruise at 72 MPH. I looked over at my gauge display when I could and noticed a reading of 107%. It stayed there till I took my exit and next time I could look it was back to 100% again. On the reverse leg of the ride, I looked for a similar reading...nope it stayed at 100% all the way home. Guess I haven't figured out what it's telling me as yet. Any suggestions?

That's happened to me also. Only when Torque is already running and the dongle is plugged in at startup. If you shut off Torque on your device it shouldn't happen.

Once at the track it nearly gave me a heart attack, I started the car and all kinds of errors came up. Including low oil pressure lol.

Hi all, I asked the question in the FORScan Forum (you can look that up in the FORScan forum as its not that big just yet) and even the guy behind FORScan does not know the algorithm. But he did point out for me that the range for the reading is -200% to 200%. So far only the FordST Forum (http://focusst.net/threads/want-to-data-log-or-monitor-your-focus-st-this-is-how.161/ (http://focusst.net/threads/want-to-data-log-or-monitor-your-focus-st-this-is-how.161/)) had some mention of the range whereby -1.0 (-100%) = High Octane, and 1.0 (100%) = Low Octane RELATIVE to your car's tuned octane rating. I suspect you should not expect to see 100% consistently, because what i understand is that the car ECU will re-learn the relative octane after acceleration when you decelerate. The other thing to note here is, you should be expecting a close to 0% range when filling your car up with the car's recommended fuel octane. i.e. the car's default tuned Octane.

I also looked into stuff like FoCCCus (a Ford Focus ECU Editor and Reader) to find that even though the car manual and dealer says that the car is designed for 91 Octane Fuel and 10% ethanol blend fuel, the actual ECU setting was 95 Octane! So, I will also caution that finding what the actual fuel octane setting in the car is not a simple matter of asking the dealer or reading the car manual.

For me, this PID is most useful to gauge your fuel octane RELATIVE to what the car is tuned for. For example, my car is tuned for 95 Octane, if I fuel up with good quality 91 Octane Fuel, I see the learned octane % hover around -5% to 50%, with I fill up with so called '94 Octane fuel' (blend fuel with up to 10% ethanol), the learned octane % actually jumps far to the 80% range (indicating lower octane) which makes sense, since the actual fuel IS lower octane, but because it is blended with up to 10% ethanol, it is then claimed 94 Octane. I also note that the LTFT (Long Term Fuel Trim) will show a reduction in % by up to 2-3% when filling up with 91 Octane fuel versus the so called 94 octane blend of fuel and ethanol.

I hope this helps.

And to make it clear once and for all, the Learned Relative Octane Adjust does not tell you what the octane rating of the fuel. AKA 93% Reading on the PID is NOT 93 Octane. In fact, no one can confirm what the exact algorithm is just yet, other than Cobb Tuning that seem to have figured something out. Wonder if anyone has ties with them that can ask what algorithm they use.

95 RON is regular unleaded.

The number at the pump is an average of

Research Octane number(RON)

Motor Octane Number(MON)

Post by: ecoboostsho on July 20, 2014, 12:10:02 PM
In Australia it looks like 95 is equivalent (roughly) to our 91 octane...?
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: FoMoCoSHO on July 20, 2014, 12:12:01 PM
Without knowing the MON, there is really no way to tell.

From what I've read the 95 usually correlates with regular unleaded.

Keep in mind I don't do much on a tablet, it will be for music, surfing, Torque, and E-mail. I'm not a tablet gamer but I did load a couple and they looked awesome. IDGAF about 99.9% of the apps in existence.

I feel like for the hardware and screen you get, it's a no brainer at $169.

Hi there fomocosho, you are right. I used RON and octane interchangeably which is wrong. 95 RON is about 91 octane.

I have seen negative numbers on FORScan reading, which I reported to this forum. Try driving the tank down and filling up with high octane fuel and see. Maybe if we can get hold of fuel tables it might shine a light on what the range actually is.

Speaking of getting turned around with this plus and minus knock retard thing, forget my initial attempt to duplicate my + 7 reading. I got a bit nervous worrying about the reading and my highway speed testing is bogus because I got turned around myself. I'm now pretty sure I was generating minus readings with my highway cruise. Got to get my head straight and start testing all over again.

First thing I decided to flash back to stock for my upcoming dealer visit and a little comparison knock readings over the next couple of days. Oh no.....the MyCal Touch won't load the stock file. It says "Invalid File" and the code "CRC". I tried twice same results. Since I already had swapped out the 3 BAR for the stock 2 BAR, I figured I'd try to load my old Stage 4+  2 BAR  170 TStat. That loaded perfectly first time and I reset my knock retard gauge and drove off to gas up. I noticed my learned octane was at 134 (from usual 100). By the time I got to the station the learned octane was 124. I gassed up then headed home with the learned octane steady  at 124. So far my knock retard readings are -4 and +0   I'm particularly worried about not being able to load my stock tune file. Any one have any similar experience/advice?

Could be your OBD link adapter possibly giving you issues with loading the stock tune,i have the MX adapter and just skeptical when to many adapters are plugged in theOBD port and could affect or intefere with the ECU causing you to have issues returning the car to stock.

I believe if you set the global units variable in Torque to Deg. C (*if it isn't already) and that may change it?  The equation as is will definitely read in Deg. F.  Worst case you could take the whole thing and multiple by .5555 and add 32 to get to Deg. C .

Ok I didn't see these in the spreadsheet. I have used these in FORSCan a few times and they good to have as a diagnostic tool.

1 misfire count. This tells you the number if misfires you have had during the current drive cycle. Sine the car was started last.

PID 220345
Name Misfire Events
Short MSF Event
Equation B

2 misfire trips. This one tells you how many drive cycles since the last time it's had a number of misfires. I believe you need at least 5 to trip this to zero.

PID 2216dc
Long Misfire Trips
Short MSF trip
Equation B

It looks like these are just dependant on the B variable and it look correct. However I can't test the first one completely as I haven't had any in a while. If someone could confirm that would be awesome.

Gauge shows activity with the blinking square but no misfires to report on.

That's a good thing, did you check the other one? Misfire Trips?

No, will put up next time. As you stated above this will start with a # then take 5 trips to reset?

Post by: ShoBoat on August 17, 2014, 04:42:45 PM
No, 5 misfires during a drive cycle will cause it to reset. Otherwise it will keep counting. Once a series of misfires occurs it will reset to 0.

Yup, so you have had 54 drive cycles since a Misfire event, reset codes or battery disconnect.

I'm willing to help once I have a few moments...What is the Forscan PID showing...total number of misfires or per cylinder?  The challenge with this is its best to capture the serial data when actual misfires occur so you can see the binary results.  This is challenging since Misfires occur so quickly...or not at all if everything is running perfect.

The misfire gauge is interesting to me but that might be a problem in itself. I find a lot of them interesting and so I'm running a lot of gauges. I wonder if there is an upper limit which should be avoided. I also wonder if a gauge that's on a screen that's not being displayed is still adding to the PID load. Got to stop adding gauges. I'm turning into a gauge junkie!

But they look so good, Larry!  Yeah there is a limit to the concurrent PIDs that can be polled, but I think it is about 100 with the the OBDLink, around 30 with the generic ELM adapters, at least on BlueTooth.  Not sure about wireless.

The gauge is a running total of misfires during the current drive cycle. It's happened once to twice that I had a few on startup. And when I started FORSCan it registered as 2 as soon as I started the log. So as long as you can get it to report one we should be able to figure it out.



The misfire gauge is more than just interesting! It gives you an insight to how the car is running. Fouled plugs? Gaping incorrect? Bad wire? Oil getting into the intake? You can tell a lot from it.

Yes this is absolutely true!  However I would just like to make sure that Larry realizes these are scanned sequentially and if you have 100 PIDS that is probably the Max rating of the MX and its a per second number.  The implication here is that you would only get a reading of a single PID every second.  More than fine for things like temperatures but if you want some degree of resolution on your Knock number then I highly recommend you use as few PIDs as possible so you don't miss events.  This car can throw massive a lot of data on the CAN bus at one time and could overwhelm Torque pretty quickly as we've already proven it isn't the fastest thing in the world.

Now what I don't know is how many it is actually reading at one time...if its just what is on the screen or scanning all of them that are in the list every time.  I do know the gauges don't update unless you are actually viewing them...I'm not positive that means they aren't still reading them in the background.  I do know that if you are actually logging with Torque (I wouldn't bother...its too slow) or you have an "alarm" set up on a PID then it reads them all the time.  So use that sparingly if you do. 

Just my 2 cents...

I've contemplated this but just can't bring myself to do it...It would obviously be dumping fuel in the cylinder but if you are talking idle I "doubt" it would hurt much but really don't know.  Cars obviously lose coils and plugs all the time so this happens and I doubt you will be rebuilding your motor because of it BUT I'm paranoid. :)

Back in the day on carbureted cars, used to happen all the time. Plug and wire failures were quite common. I could install one of the older plugs and widen the gap a little. That would also work.

Post by: ecoboostsho on August 22, 2014, 08:31:27 AM
Did some digging...

Misfire trips - confirmed - 2216dc however the equation is probably (A*256)+B.  It is returning two bytes of data so while just a "B" equation will work it will max out at 255 trips.  If you want to see a higher number than that you will need to use the full equation.

Number of Misfires during recent misfire "event"
PID 220345 (as indicated previously) however the equation is returning 4 bytes of data which means it can use the variables A, B, C, and D.  I was only able to experience a single misfire event in a 45 minute drive and the D variable showed a 1...as did Forscan.  So...and it's a guess at this point...You could probably use (C*256)+D to get you a guage that would read up to 65535 events...which would certainly be sufficient to let you know that you've got a big issue...(in theory you could represent over 4 billion misfire events with all four variables...Pretty sure your car wouldn't be running then.)

All of this was just from Forscan...I haven't verified any of it in Torque yet and probably won't until after work.  If anyone wants to try it out let me know how it goes!

I did find another PID which was "Misfire currently detected" that looked interesting but Forscan interpresets a value of 00080000 as a "No".  Not sure what a yes would look like yet but maybe I can catch one.  The PID is 220700.

Are both of your knock sensor wires routed away from the engine block or otherwise separated?  A/C does put a good electrical load on, may cause vibration as well.

I wouldn't worry about it right now.  If the dealership installed the battery, which it looks like it did, you may also have the 7 year warranty with it.  Keep a pic for future reference, but a good question to ask them also.

My personal opinion is that is a terrible idea. Lots of very expensive items to fix on these vehicles. On my ST the first failure cost almost 3x the price of the warranty. That car isnt nearly as advanced as the SHO. Ford has almost 30 recalls right now so I'd consider the likelihood high that you will get your moneys worth.

Starter+battery+alternator form a circle of life.  If one messes up enough it can kill all 3 in short order so don't skip over a few easy checks now.

How has the weather been?  Alternators will put out less power the hotter they get.  13-14.5v is considered "normal" output for an alternator.  It will vary with temperature, rpm, and load.  Press the start button twice (without foot on the brake) and see what it reads.  12.6 is perfect but since other stuff is running in the car already it probably won't read that.  Start the car with the lights and everything off and see what it reads at idle.  Turn on everything you can think of, lights, ac max cool, hazards, heated seats, rear defroster and check voltage.  Bring the rpm's up a little and check the voltage.

If at any time the voltage drops under the first voltage you saw the alternator isn't doing its job and you are taking power off the battery.  The battery's "only" job is to start the car.  Starter+battery+alternator form a circle of life.  If one messes up enough it can kill all 3 in short order so don't skip over a few easy checks now.

Has anybody figured out how to use the "learned octane" reading yet. I'm still confused. I was using it and it was mostly around 100 as I remember. I kind of demoted it to a second string screen. Turns out my high KR was partially caused by my Sunoco 93 under performing in the octane department. The KR helped me to diagnose and cure the two separate causes but I wonder if I understood how to use the "learned octane" properly if I could monitor the octane kind of tank by tank. Be great to make sure that the 93 you just bought was really 93!

No but TBH I was sitting in the garage playing and had just added it.

I still can't get the AWD gauge to work, I'm starting to wonder if the PID upload didn't take. Hopefully someone with a 2013+ has gotten it to work and will chime in.

Has anyone seen an option anywhere to export layouts? I swear I've seen it but now I can't find it. I'd love to build some dashboards and be able to make them available to you guys.

That will never function and manufacturers don't use sensors to sense the corn anymore.

Head over to the E-85 section, there's a ton of data including how newer cars handle it.

When your in the gauge screen (real time information), hit settings button and then the bottom option. Think it was layout options. Weird thing is, I just went to try again and I can't get the settings icon back on the screen to press.


Edit: once pressed I had to back out of gauges and come back in for it to appear again.

That is a ton of torque. Do you have the weight and speedo in torque dialed in? I used to get spikes into the 400 range before I dialed those in. Now the max I've hit is 395 torque and 372 HP. These numbers keep barely increasing as the weather cools also(along with my kr hitting a max of 0.8 at wot with lift knock ranging from 1-3 deg).

Yeah, I've had it dialed in for a while, we will see soon what is going on as I will have access to a new awd dyno. Like every dyno Torque is just a tool, but I feel it has been accurate, at least as far as increases and decreases go. For example, on my best 1/4 run, torque recorded a torque increase that translated pretty much spot on to my time decrease. When the car was stock Torque showed a 38 wtq increase with the corn and subsequently dropped 4/10ths in the 1/4.

He's got a Focus...I know what the PIDs are (and the I believe the formula once upon a time) but in the 2010 - 2012 they came from the smart junction box and I never could get Torque to actually talk to that module.  I believe the 2013+ has a BCM so it may be possible to grab it given the method I used at the beginning to reverse engineer everything but I don't have a 2013+ so I couldn't try it.  If he knows the PID's and can talk to the module then Torque would have no problem displaying them.  Hopefully he will reply!

(edit - I had the BCM and smart junction box backwards in my original post...corrected.)

Just looked back in this thread - ShoBoat tried it on a 2013 (dialogue back on page 5) and it didn't work but I don't know exactly what he did.  You could try the PIDs from page 1 and use "726" in the header section and see if you get a response...You could also try the PIDs listed above or use the instructions on page 1 yourself to see what the PIDs are for the 2013+ if they are indeed different.

If you check out page 5 each PID represents a set of tires front and back...the values for both tires are represented in the response I believe.  I still think the bigger problem for you (and me) on the 2010-2012's is the fact that the smart junction box is off of the MSCAN bus and Torque doesn't seem to like to talk to it...the 2013+ guys have a BCM off the HSCAN bus so they at least have a shot at it.

New to all this so a quick question. Getting ready to buy a "tune". So - I bought the OBDLink MX to start playing with Torque Pro in preparation for data logging.  While adding the Tire Pressure custom PID's, Torque Pro gives a warning about possibly screwing up the ECU with custom PIDS. Is this "possible" or are they just protecting themselves from the liability?

Thanks

Are you still stock? In my experience LOR starts around 129 and then heads down to 100 as it learns. I don't know that it actually represents percent Octane but the fact that it is learning. Once it hits 100 it will stay there unless you unplug the battery for a length of time or tune it and then it will start over. That is the best I have been able to figure out and it is just a guess honestly.

The way I see it (based on the Oracle [Internet]), the engine "learns" octane based on the feedback it gets from the knock sensor, i.e., correlates knock retard to octane level of current fuel.  For example:

So has anybody figured out what the LOR # correlates to?

Obviously something with the octane...

It just sat at 100 with the 13 no matter the blend, but the 15 it has been as high as 129 with an unknown fuel octane/quality.
Are you still stock? In my experience LOR starts around 129 and then heads down to 100 as it learns. I don't know that it actually represents percent Octane but the fact that it is learning. Once it hits 100 it will stay there unless you unplug the battery for a length of time or tune it and then it will start over. That is the best I have been able to figure out and it is just a guess honestly.

Yeah, this is exactly what happened but it didn't go below 117 till I filled up with V-power.

I had a crapload of +KR before i filled up so I assume it was 87...

I would say that if your LOR goes above 100, that could mean you got a tank of bad or mislabeled gas....so it does have a good use.

same here. It was at 129 then slowly worked its way down and stayed @ 102 until I refilled.

100 is theoretically ideal per the manufacturer's POV, once the new fuel is "relearned" after fillup.  Now what fuel they use exactly to set this ratio, not sure, but fair game to say E10, as that seems to be the standard in most of the country now.  I am sure they allow some variance for quality of fuel, but the "ideal" 100 point will vary by actual fuel in use, which is where tuning comes into play, altering the fuel & spark tables accordingly.  That's why you have 87/89/91/93 and beyond tunes.  You definitely don't want to run less octane than the tune calls for, but more is ok, up to a point, for example.

Interesting article.  I found an article by Cobb for the Subaru that was pretty similar.  I could probably "adjust" the formula so the gauge indicated -1 in Torque (instead of 100%) and 129 would be "0" - at least from my experience.  That said I don't really know that the behavior we've seen exactly matches up to this on the current gauge so I'm not sure changing the scale/display really help?  I will probably try it on mine and report back.

That could mean you got some bad fuel.

The old car never moved from 100, but it always had corn in it from the time that gauge got fired up.

I will be watching the behavior as I add some corn and wood...

I'm guessing 100 is based on 93 E10 since that's what is the preferred fuel and I'm pretty sure what was used to get the 365 rating.

It would be nice if this number would scale under 100 so we could see any the effects of extra octane above the 93 threshold.

Wasn't your tune adjusted for corn though?
So I would think if your ratio never changed dramatically it would stay @100.

My tune is not adjusted for corn but I add 2 gallons to battle the winter fuel. That's why I think it shoots up to 129 then once it learns/adjusts what's in the tank it goes back down.  I'm a newb when it comes to blending so I'm prob wrong. Lol

All PIDs on the Taurus are from a CANbus by definition. Are you trying to use the custom PIDs with engine link? I am not familiar with that app.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: 66 Galaxie on June 09, 2015, 02:32:14 PM
Yes, working on custom PIDs.

Engine Link does allow them and I have successfully added transmission temp.  Tire pressures do not work which I believe is due to my Flex being a '14.

Only reason I'm not using Torque is the curse of the iPhone. ;-)

To the best of my ability yes it is - with one caveat.  I have a 2011 so the file is geared more toward the 2010 - 2012 years just because that is what I have so that is what I can test.  Several others have taken what I started and did a fantastic job figuring out some of the 2013+ PIDs.  The majority of the PIDs are common to all the years but anything with the AWD unit and anything in the Body Control Module (ie tire pressures) is different.  If someone is willing to pull together anything 2013 specific and send it to me I would happily post that file in the first post of this thread for reference.

There is some info in the awd area about this unit.

I emailed them for clarification but haven't heard back.

I'm pretty sure that in general the 13+SHO THE ECU & PCM was updated,and the encoding of the programming is totally different than the previous years. Z

Yeah, that's the one I'm playing with.

I can't manipulate the gauges at all they're too small to be of any use while driving.

Some of the multipliers are way out of whack as well and no way to change them.

It looks like these issues will be addressed but it may take some time.

It looks to be very fast though.

Just tested the AWD PID seems to work as advertised. Interesting as the rear seems to jump to over 80% as soon as you step on the pedal from a dig. Even with light acceleration.

That is what I see in my gauge....any provocation of the happy pedal moves power to the rear first.

I've played with the pid and I'm not getting a response (little green light). What PID, header, equation are you using?

Hopefully a veteran Torque user will chime in to help you.  I'm using Enginelink on my iPhone which seems to work with some of the custom PIDs that have been figured out for Torque.

In terms of my tire pressure challenges the formulas I'm trying are:

Long Name  LFTire Pressue  RFTire Pressure  RRTire Pressure  LRTire Pressure
Short Name  LF Pressure  RF Pressure  RR Pressure  LR Pressure
PID  222813  222814  222815   222816
Equation    (((256*A)+B)/3+22/3)*0.145 (same for all)

The tire pressures come from the BCM in the 13+ vehicles. I'm wondering if engine link isn't talking to the right module...that's what the header is for. Only thing I can think of...

Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: ecoboostsho on June 28, 2015, 10:14:24 AM
Unfortunately in pre 2013 cars there is a smart junction box not a BCM so you can't get tire pressures unless your adapter and software can handle medium speed CAN. (MSCAN) as opposed to HSCAN. Torque can't so we don't get tire pressures on the 2010-2012s. FORSCAN can read them though.

You are not using Torque, right?  In Torque, you have to delete the existing display, then edit the PID, and create a new display.  At least for LOR, shouldn't the range be -1.0 to 1.0?

I am using Torque with Note 4 phone. Ive learned whenever changes are made to PID formulas, calculation or even name change, the gauge has to be re-added.

But for LOR I thought the range from where I saw was 0-100. I can maybe try your suggestion.

Should be about 60 new PIDs.  They can be imported into Torque Pro directly by copying the .csv file into the extended PIDs folder using a file manager app in Android.  You will need to show hidden files with the app inorder to view the .torque folder.

Thank you for posting these!  A lot of them are the same that we've previously discovered so there is a good chance that many of them will work!  That said I don't know if the ECU's from the Focus are the same as the Taurus or not so it will be interesting to see if everything works or just some stuff.  I am definitely interested in the low pressure fuel pump actual and a few others!

LOR will definitely be -1 to +1 (unless you really like 0 to 100% then you could change the formula yourself) and I see ShonUup caught the space.

Not sure on AWD modulation as it looks right.  If you delete the formula and hit "test" when you add the custom PID do you get a response? If so what is it?  After you do that just for fun delete the header information and see if you get a response then.

AWD status formula should be  (256*A)+B
It's either On (a '1') or Off '0'.

I know for a fact that the tire pressure one works but the PID only updates every 6 seconds to it would be very easy to over/under inflate your tires unless you knew about the 6 second update rate.

They work in a focus. yes? They won't however work in a 2010-12 SHO because there is a smart junction box on the MSCAN bus and not a BCM on the HSCAN bus. At least in Torque you can't read both buses at the same time. Unless you've figured out a way to do that? I'm all ears if you have. Tire pressures work great o. A 2013+ SHO.

Ok, I corrected the formula for LOR. Will test in car later tonight or tomorrow.

The AWD status, if you right I inverted the numbers. (256 vs 265) I will correct and test also.

When hitting test button, I would get ECU not connected message.

I thought someone had tire pressures working for '11 model. BUMMER for me!

Torque Pro is very pretty program to look at but if you want to View ALL pids available there is no better program/App than FORScan.  It has hundreds of pids each seperated by individual module and bus.  Obviously if you cant read the MSCAN or ICAN busses then you wont be able to see those modules.  Forscan is a Ford, Mazda and possibly Lincoln only reader.  Its completely free on PC but is not free on Iphone/Android.  It can run individual tests on certain modules and has some PATS functionality as well.  You only need a minimum of the app and an ELM327 but an OBDlink MX bluetooth is highly recommended since it can read all busses at a rate of 120pids per second.

Yep. That is what I used to figure the original PIDs quite some time ago. See page 1 of this thread. theI use it all the time for real logging. Once they get their Android app/gui a little more functional I will definitely be looking at using that. I have it on my tablet and there are a ton of PIDs.

Hello Everyone!  I spent some time doing some long overdue updating to the first page of the thread - although nothing too drastic.  What I did do was attach a new file for download with all of the PIDs for everything from 2010 - present that we know about.  (Again see the first post in this thread at the bottom.  It is labeled "Ford Ecoboost Ext PIDs.csv") this includes the PIDs from the Focus thread with a few modifications.  I needed to delete a few that weren't present in our cars (active shutters in the grille for instance) and verify that the rest of the PIDs were working etc...Most of them loaded right up but a few needed some modification to work with my Taurus.  I also COMBINED All of the PIDs from the 2010-12 and 13+ models up.  What I did do was indicate right in the title which ones are for which model.  You won't harm anything by loading them all - the ones not for your model simply won't work.  (AWD gauge and tire pressures are the big ones for now)  I also added an "*" at the beginning of all the PIDs so they show up at the top of your custom torque gauges and are easy to differentiate from either other loaded PIDs or the built in Torque ones.  They are also in alphabetical order so you can find them easier.

ONE NOTE OF CAUTION.  IF YOU LOAD THESE IN TO YOUR EXISTING SETUP THE NAMES ARE DIFFERENT SO YOU WILL BREAK YOUR EXISTING GAUGES AND YOU WILL HAVE TO RE-ADD THEM!!!  YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

My hope was this would make it easier to keep them all in one place for now.  If I missed any please let me know!!

Okay...there are some known issues with the WiFi version.  Do you have any of the custom PIDs working within Torque right now?  Or just the "standard" ones?  (I'm assuming you have it working at some level).

It sucks you guys had such bad experience. How they managed to engineer the MX so well, then released the lx, which by all accounts shouldn't have gotten out of development, is beyond me.

The advance install is a pain. I think that is part of my problem in that maybe hampers connection. But I even tried connected my ipad since its WiFi and it had trouble maintaining a good connection.

So I think I have the "monitoring" PID's working now. And fixed issue with with Torque pro connecting. (Was IP address setting). However the mx is still dropping connections. I am waiting for replacement reader to show up.

This is pic of screen with car idling. Help me to decipher the raw data knock sensors. They are reading 173/187. With engine idling and goosing the engine, I get no knock retard. So are the raw knock reading normal to have? And is it only a problem if timing is being pulled? Is the knock retard the only number to be concerned with? This is the the 93 4+X tune loaded, with 91 octane fuel and the ACES IV.

The LOR reading is changing. I don't believe it in this pic. I think because car just idling and been sitting all day reading is erroneous. Car first started it showed -1, then to -.7 This probably all due to car just idling. So I need to add the OAR PID to help validate.

Post by: ecoboostsho on September 27, 2015, 09:56:31 PM
What you want is the knock ignition timing PID not the individual sensor counts. I think it's 2203ec but I'm going from memory so check the first post in this thread. I've never seen the LOR change from just idling and blipping the throttle. Usually it will only change unless it's been flashed, battery disconnected, or you've got actual knock. If its high enough the LOR will react quickly. Not sure I guess at this point until we see your ignition timing correction (knock retard) value.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: Dxlnt1 on September 27, 2015, 11:03:24 PM
Good memory.

The knock retard is showing as 0. The ignition timing is showing as 12 deg.

Again I have little faith in my obd reader reliability but if its trending correctly this is what is happening. So I can ignore individual sensors and just watch KR? When I leave work tonight, I will try to log a few things. I think I have room for 1 quick WOT pull before I get into trouble.
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: FoMoCoSHO on September 28, 2015, 01:36:44 PM
I would tread cautiously. That oar number is telling you you dont have the octane you need for your tune.

I run the knock count gauges but have yet to figure out what they mean in relation to Kr and timing.

From what this post (http://maxima.org/forums/supercharged-turbocharged/216885-how-do-you-define-knock-count.html#post2240226) says, Knock Count is relevant to OBDI vehicles, as it is an actual knock event being noted.  On OBDII, it is a voltage reading for internal use by the ECU to determine whether & how much to pull timing.

QuoteOriginally Posted by DSMJim in the 4th Gen Forum

Ok, this is the funny thing.. Knock count I'm refering to is what is viewed on a OBD1 DSM, it's so many counts per a period of time. I don't know what that period is, doesn't really matter just as long as that count doesn't exceed 40 at the very most (even that's dangerous). Many people who read DSM tuning guides don't know what the number mean or how they apply to a different car.

OBD2 doesn't see knock in a number like 5-10 as I have been refering, it shows a raw number that the computer deciphers. I believe it's given from the sensor in Ohm's or Voltage and is then converted by the computer into a number which it uses. If you hook up a SAFC2 and look at the knock readout during normal driving you will see numbers like 40-50 showing up but it's not knock because cars don't knock at part throttle at all, pretty well impossible under there is some big *** hill your trying to climb or something that puts lots of load on the engine. That makes the number from the stock knock sensor pretty much uselss.

On OBD2 (or OBD1 for that matter) when you get lots of knock timing will start to get pulled. So your best way to monitor knock is by watching timing. If your at WOT and 4500rpm your timing is 16deg, then 5000rpm its 17deg then 5500 it goes back to 15deg you know you had knock between 5000-5500rpm because timing got yanked 2deg right there. Timing should gradually ramp up with RPM to redline. If you start at 16deg at 4500 and slowly end up at 22deg at 7000rpm then that's a pretty good curve and it goes up one or two deg every 500rpm or so, your golden. It doesn't matter how much knock the computer is seeing, because its not enough to pull timing back. If you keep timing happy and rising nicely though the rpm band then knock WILL be under control. Doesn't matter if it's zero or 1000 the computer will determine if and when to advance timing based on what the knock sensor send back to it. If your Air/fuel ratio is good then you will have little or no knock and the computer will advance timing normally.

It all comes down to Air/Fuel. Don't aim for a specific number like 12:1 if your turbo because you heard thats the best. If your car ramps timing up faster at 11.6:1 or something like that then it's happier being there then leaner at 12:1. Basically get your A/F into the right zone for your application (11.2 - 11.5:1 for Nitrous, 11.5-12.0:1 for Turbo and 12.9 - 13.3:1 for All motor all at WOT) then make adjustment until your timing ramps up the fastest and goes to the highest number. Thats then you know your running the right air/fuel that makes your motor happy, timing is good and knock is under control and your making the most power.

Rich cars lose power, lean cars make power but risk blowing up, the first sign of which is knock then pistons with holes in them. You want to stick to the safe side on the street so tune rich (not crazy but it your turbo shoot for 11.5:1 to start not 12.0:1) and go from there. Once you have spent some time tuning your car and going to the track and seeing what works for you, you will know exactly what makes your particular motor/setup happy and make the most HP. Then you won't have to listen to guys on the internet tell you what to do because you will know what to do.

Post by: AJP turbo on September 28, 2015, 04:10:52 PM
Quick thing at a glance i saw that is wrong with that statement...yes timing should advance gradually as rpm rises thats provided load doesnt change...load is almost never consant in these ecoboosts at wot...they are trying to maintain a certain level or torque and the engine varies its efficiency at different loads and rpms so boost will change at different torque levels.

So if load jumps up at high rpms then timing will go down simply because its following the spark tables....so the timing simply going down as rpms increase may not be indicative of any knock event or knock retard
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: AJP turbo on September 28, 2015, 04:57:14 PM
Also i wouldnt run as lean as what that guy suggests....his numbers are more apprpriate for race cars all across the board...the risk reward isnt there...the coyote mustangs run high 11's afr even at n/a...alot of factory boosted cars run high 10's afr....real power comes from timing advance and not leaning out the fuel mix but level of safety goes way up when u run rich

60-600 ... millivolts?  Every engine has its' own calibration from the manufacturer, and the threshold will change with RPM & load.

Post by: AJP turbo on September 28, 2015, 06:01:01 PM
That guy dsm jim is trying to simplify and correlate different knock algorithyms between way too many platforms...every manufacturer uses different knock sesnor and timing logic....some are dynamic and some arent

In my civic si which is obdii u do not ever rely on the knock sensors to pull timing even though there is a knock sensor for every cylinder..it can not pull timing fast enough they are used for estimation of fuel octane and kind of work like long term fuel trims

And judging by his name he has experience with dsm tuning so alot changes
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: AJP turbo on September 28, 2015, 08:24:34 PM
Wow just read some more snipets of dsmjims post....he said u dont ever get knock during part throttle?!...its actually really easy to get knock there since timing is really advanced and u are in closed loop running at or near stoic meaning very lean at 14:1 or even leaner.

The guy sounds like he knows enough to get in trouble with tuning...he makes some good points but id throw most of what he says out the window

So .6 volts from the knock sensor max?

They are typically 0-5 volts, correct?

Does that .6 seem realistic?
Title: Re: Torque PIDs...Take 2
Post by: SHOdded on September 28, 2015, 09:30:22 PM
What I meant was that you are seeing the readings possibly in millivolts, not actual counts of identified knock.  On my Edge, IIRC, I have seen the counts in ForScan rise with RPM, for example, I will check again the next time I get a chance to log.  Let's say the threshold is 1 V or 1000 mV.  Anything over 1000 would then be a knock event and dealt with accordingly by, for example, retarding timing.  The threshold is not static, as engine behavior changes with RPM & load.

This page is fantastic! Thanks to everyone that has contributed. I used the 13+ Taurus tire pressure pid on my '11 F150 EB and it works great!!

Edit! Maybe it isn't   working so well. I was showing a few pounds Low in a couple tires. I pumped them each up to 39lbs. Got in the truck , started up and when torque came on, it showed them all with 1/2lb of each other, right around 39 each. I drive for a bit, turned off the truck, and when I got going again, they all went back to the value before I pumped them up. Any thoughts?

2. Depending on which app, where do I get the PIDS file, i.e. the csv file from first page?
3. Do I load the file to my Android phone?
4. Is there a file to download of a preset dashboard and what app is it for?
5. Do I drink beer while installing said files?

I have water meth kit installed and would like this enabled so I can read before after temps when injecting etc....

No it doesn't show up as a PID to data log on my acts x4 tuner. If it did I would have logged it while running wireshark and then checked the tcp traffic for the codes etc....

Saw someone else on the forum posted they couldn't get IAT2 working either,

Also wondering if it is a physical error, do you know where to find this sensor on the manifold as it may be loose or dirty and I have some more MAF spray that might clean it etc....?

Just a quick update, plugged in my x4 hand held tuner and fired up livewire software from SCT and loaded up all the PiDS inc IAT2 but when I started data logging nothing was picked up, safe to say that my ecu strategy prob doesnt use the IAT2 setting and therefore not able to be read.

Doubtful but anything is possible I suppose. IAT2 is pretty important to the ECU I believe so I don't think Ford would put it on MS-CAN. Is there a PID called MCT instead? (Manifold Charge Temp)

Thanks for feedback. No Manifold Charge Temp MCT either. Very strange and as there aren't many modded Kuga/Escape 2.0 turbos out there with WMI and wanting to do the same as I have and want to achieve, it really is a suck it and see type approach.

I'll report back in the new year how I go, meanwhile I'll keep checking this post.

Contact Forscan, maybe they haven't implemented it yet, and you could be the "guinea pig" to get this established.  They don't have any trans parameters for my 2010 Fusion Sport, so it doesn't have to be the newest model that hasn't been fleshed out.

Torque Control Requested (Used during shifting to reduce torque...aka torque management.)
PID 2203AF  returns 0 with car off.

Equation: (256*A)+B

Not sure if this really works or not as I never really played with it but give it a shot...

That is only one mode of torque control...the one you are talking of is torque source 7 when logging tq source....there are probably 30 different kind of torque reduction as displayed by tq source

Gotcha - I'd have to break out FORSCAN and do some investigating. I found that one ages ago when I was poking around.  I will try and do that if I have time.  The downside is you are only ever going to get the value out of torque and would need to keep the handy reference table available to correlate the actual source but at least it's a start.

Not that I am aware of unfortunately.

I did do sone scanning last night and the PID is definitely 2203AF but the equation is just A.

It returns a variety of values that correspond to the source I believe they will match the numbers over in the other thread on AWD shutoff...So 0 is "none requested" and 1 is "Trans Torque" 2 is speed limiter, 3 is rev limiter, etc...

I still need to drive the car and verify some of those variables...But at least you'd have an idea of what is requesting the torque reduction.

Perhaps "Torque Source"?

I found this on the SVT Performance forum. Perhaps AJP Turbo can comment on the accuracy of these for other Fords. 4 matches up with a rev limiter issue I was having, so maybe it's the same for all Fords??

TQ_SOURCE Identifies the source of the torque reduction requestor

0 No Torque Reduction Requested (Torque Control Off)
1 Torque truncation, transmission
2 Traction Control
3 Vehicle Speed Limiter
4 Engine Speed Limiter
5 Tip-in shock Control
6 Tip-out Decel Control
7 Torque Shift Modulation, transmission
8 Engine Oil Temperature Control
9 Fail Safe Cooling Control
11 Turbo Charger
12 Passive Anti Theft system (PATS)
13 Tip in Torque Control

TQ_SOURCE Source of torque reduction:

0 Driver Demand
1 Transmission torque truncation
2 Traction Control
3 Vehicle Speed Limiting
4 Engine Speed Limiting
5 Tipin rate limiting
6 Tipout torque
7 Transmission Shift Modulation
8 Engine Oil Over temperature
9 Target N
10 Not Used
11 ETC FMEM - RPM Guard
12 PATS
13 OSCMOD

I unfortunately don't have a table of values beyond what was shared here so I can't speculate. If you have Forscan why not run that. It has the values in it already? At least while you are diagnosing an issue.

In OP's CSV file with PIDs, the equation for "Bypass Valve Commanded Open" should be changed from A/256 to A/255. This will give a full value of 1 instead of 0.99609375 when the valve is open, as the hex value is FF (255) when the valve is open.

FF = 255
255/256 = 0.99609375
255/255 = 1

I know Torque will round 0.99609375 to 1 when there are no decimal places shown, but I found this issue when trying to implement the following:

If you want Torque to say Open and Closed instead of 1 and 0, use this equation:
Lookup((A/255)::0='Closed':1='Open')

What year is your flex again? (I'm on Tapatalk and can't see signatures). What is the module address you are accessing? (Header in Torque pro I believe?) If 2013+ then it should be set to 726.

I have not read all 51 pages of this thread, do these work on the 2010 SHO?

It should definitely work on a 2010 Taurus. I'm assuming you can get the standard gauges (say like (RPM) to respond? I just want to make sure your adapter is actually talking to the car properly.  Also can you send a screenshot of your custom pid screen in Torque? Just close that error message window for starters.

Jman,

adjust your minimum value to -7.0

adjust your maximum value to 7.0

make sure your scale factor is x1

then test

I see that's for knock and your main issue was with awd I believe just making sure your scale factor is 1x should fix the issue that's how mine is and works

If the previous suggestions don't work just delete your equation and temporarily put in an A for your equation. You should at least get a value back that is non scaled. That will help narrow down the problem for me...

Okay well then something isn't communicating with the car properly or the pid is wrong somehow for your car. It looks like it but that is "zero" in the 2203EC correct? It's been a long time since I messed with torque pro (I use obdlink) so I don't think it matters but try a capital EC just for fun. Also what is in your header field?

Okay just checking. Try using AUTO in the header. If that doesn't work I'm stumped unfortunately. I would try a different app just to see if it's something weird in your Installation of torque.

Neither the "A" or the "auto" fixed it. :(
Weird thing is that the AWD does return a value (steady 50.4) but all others don't.

When I was playing with Forscan I read that the 2010 doesn't have a BCM (or cannot be accessed), could this be why?

Well on the 2010-12 there is a smart junction box (SJB) on the MSCAN bus and not a BCM on the HSCAN bus.  First your adapter has to have the ability to speak MSCAN (medium speed CAN bus) and second Torque can't (to my knowledge) access both the MSCAN bus and HSCAN bus at the same time.  That said if I recall correctly the AWD gauge is actually reading the AWD module (not a SJB or BCM) and that is why the header needs to be "761" for that gauge.
