CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 for VW Corrado FL (LHD)
The CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 replaces the air vent insert with a touchscreen data display while still allowing airflow past the unit. It’s designed for straightforward installation, and illustrated instructions are available for most displays.
Key features
- Vehicle-specific integration: Bezel design keeps ventilation function.
- CAN Bus readout: Access in-depth vehicle data similar to manufacturer diagnostic tools.
- Gear display: Via CAN Bus or calculated from speed and RPM.
- Touchscreen operation: Page navigation using swipe gestures.
- Custom pages: Create your own layouts, add images, or use a start animation.
- Inputs: Up to 4 analog inputs plus direct ethanol sensor input.
- CAN switching: Use the display as a keypad and transmit custom CAN messages.
- Configurable alarms: User-set warnings (e.g., EGT warning above 900°C).
- Logging: Record data to the internal SD card.
- Performance meter: 0–100, 100–200, and 0–200 measurements without additional hardware.
- DTC*: Read/clear faults from engine ECU, transmission, ABS, and all-wheel drive.
- Dimming*: Automatic dimming with the instrument panel.
Pages and display layouts
- Delivered with predefined sample pages.
- Up to 10 pages.
- 20 widget types (e.g., sensor value, analogue pointer, YT diagram, speed bar, round display, vertical/horizontal bar).
- Drag-and-drop positioning and scalable widget sizes.
- Fully adjustable widget colors.
- Up to 64 widgets per page.
Display Setup Software (DSS)
CANchecked DSS is used to customize pages and settings, download and view log files, and use the integrated CAN logger. The integrated TRI Editor allows sensor configuration (CAN Bus or internal), including min/max warning thresholds and sensor naming.
Supported ECU values and protocols
Data is queried via CAN (UDS, TP2, manufacturer-specific protocols) and via K-Line (ISO 9141). The display is delivered with predefined TRI/TRX files that define the sensors queried (varies by engine). Examples include:
Temperatures
- Exhaust temperature, coolant temperature, oil temperature, intake temperature, outside temperature, gasoline temperature, DSG temperature.
Pressures
- Boost pressure, ambient pressure, fuel pressure (pre-feed pump), rail pressure (actual/target).
Lambda/mixture
- Lambda value, injection time, short-term lambda adjustment, long-term lambda adjustment.
Other
- RPM, air mass, vehicle speed, throttle angle, total ignition angle, ignition angle retraction per cylinder, N75 timing (%), terminal 30 voltage, torque, gear, diesel-specific values.
If values are missing, they can be added later.
Connections and expansion
Four analog inputs support linear 0–5V sensors and NTC sensors. CANchecked sensors are stored in the TRI/TRX files by default and only need to be connected:
- AIN1: Temperature sensor (NTC01)
- AIN2: Type K EGT converter (TCC01)
- AIN3: Pressure sensor 0–10 bar (FLP01)
- AIN4: Boost pressure sensor 0–5.5 bar absolute (BST01)
An external shift light with eight LEDs can also be connected, with colors and limits configured on the display. The ethanol sensor connects directly to the display (requires a 10K pull-up resistor between 5V and signal) to view and log ethanol content and temperature.
Advanced functions
- Math-Channels: Calculate values from sensors.
- User-Table: Create additional sensors using 2D or 3D maps.
