I assume you talking about the Td5 engine ECU?
There are projects out there that have already accomplished this: https://github.com/BennehBoy/LRDuinoTD5 https://github.com/k0sci3j/BinOwl_Td5Gauge However, don't think the Td5 ECU has sensors for the those parameters you are looking for. No oil temps, but there's a engine air intake temperature. If you look at BennehBoy's project above, he added the appropriate sensors and read those with his microcontroller. I'm actually in the process of making one myself, though just relying on the sensors that the ECU has, and report on -- RPM, turbo pressure, etc. |

Hi - no I am talking about the 2.2 puma ECU. Thanks for the links though.
I normally work on vintage valve radios and amps, alongside older HiFi stuff and some t.v. so programming has been a learning curve, but I love it. |

Have a look at the https://www.canchecked.de/ devices if you want something off the shelf - they can read data from the OBD port and display it. As the puma uses 'standard' OBD not like the TD5 they should talk to each other. If you would like a Madman style setup, I have a couple of 'equivalent' gauges without sensors somewhere. From what I understand, Madman is a rebadge of monitoring systems used in light aircraft, other variations of the same gauges are available. You should be able to add standard sensors and get it working... |
