CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 for VW Corrado FL (vehicle-specific vent integration)
The CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 replaces the air vent insert with an integrated data display designed to fit cleanly while still allowing airflow. It’s built for DIY installation, with illustrated instructions available for many variants.
Key features
- OEM-style integration: Vehicle-specific bezel; airflow remains functional.
- CAN Bus data: In-depth vehicle data readout comparable to manufacturer diagnostic tools.
- Gear display: Via CAN Bus or calculated from speed and RPM.
- Touchscreen operation: Page navigation via swipe gestures.
- Custom pages: Build your own layouts, add images, or use a start animation.
- Inputs: Up to 4 analog inputs plus direct ethanol sensor support.
- CAN switching: Use the display as a keypad and send your own CAN messages.
- Configurable alarms: User-defined warnings (e.g., exhaust gas temperature above 900°C).
- Logging: Record data to the internal SD card.
- Performance meter: Measure 0–100, 100–200, and 0–200 times without additional hardware.
- DTC*: Read and clear faults from engine ECU, transmission, ABS, and all-wheel drive.
- Dimming*: Automatic dimming with the instrument panel.
Pages and display views
- Delivered with predefined sample pages.
- Create your own 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; widgets can be scaled.
- Fully adjustable widget colours.
- Up to 64 widgets per page.
Display Setup Software (DSS)
DSS is used to configure the display, review logs, and use the integrated CAN logger. The integrated TRI Editor lets you manage sensors (CAN Bus or internal), set min/max warning thresholds, and rename sensors.
Supported data and protocols
The display supports CAN Bus queries (UDS, TP2, manufacturer-specific protocols) and K-Line (ISO 9141). It ships with predefined TRI/TRX files that define the queried sensors, varying by engine. Missing values can be added later.
Examples of supported values
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.
What’s included
- MFD28 Gen2 data display integrated in the ventilation insert for RHD vehicles
- Connector A (8-way Molex)
- Connector B (10-way Molex)
- Pre-assembled connection cables (20 cm) for power supply, CAN Bus, analogue inputs, 5V, sensor ground (colour-coded)
- Pins for self-crimping
- Two 1 kΩ resistors (pull-up for external NTC sensors)
- Quickstart guide
- USB data cable
- SD card (pre-installed)
- SD card adapter
- Anti-reflection display foil
Connection and expansion
Four analog inputs support linear 0–5V sensors and NTC sensors. CANchecked in-house sensors are stored in the TRI/TRX files by default and only need to be connected.
- AIN1: Temperature sensor (NTC01)
- AIN2: Type K exhaust gas temperature converter (TCC01)
- AIN3: Pressure sensor 0–10 bar (FLP01)
- AIN4: Boost pressure sensor 0–5.5 bar absolute (BST01)
A pre-assembled AIN wiring harness can be used for connection. An external shift light with eight LEDs can also be connected; colours and RPM limits are configured on the display.
The ethanol sensor connects directly to the display. A 10 kΩ pull-up resistor between 5V and the signal is required to view and log ethanol content and temperature.
Advanced functions
Math channels allow calculated values from multiple sensors. The user table can generate additional sensors using 2D or 3D maps.
Optional accessories
- CC24000 SLM08 – external switching lightning module
- CC22780 ANC04 – four-way AIN harness
- CC22100 CBD08 – eight-way CAN distribution hub
- CC22902 NTC01 – temperature sensor for liquids, 1/ inch NPT
- CC22903 TCC01 – type K converter, 0–1250°C
- CC22901 FLP01 – pressure sensor 0–10 bar (145 psi), M10x1
- CC22900 BST01 – boost pressure sensor 0–5.5 bar absolute (80 psi)
* Not available on all protocols.
