CANchecked MFD32 Gen2 for BMW 5 Series G30/G31/G38/F90

The MFD32 Gen2 replaces the air-vent insert with a fully integrated data display while keeping airflow past the bezel. It is designed for straightforward installation, with illustrated instructions available for most variants.

Key features

• OEM-style integration: Vehicle-specific bezel with retained vent airflow
• CAN bus data: In-depth readouts comparable to manufacturer diagnostic tools
• Gear display: Via CAN bus or calculated from speed and RPM
• Touchscreen operation: Swipe-based page navigation
• Custom pages: Build your own layouts, add images, and start animations
• Sensor expandability: Up to 4 analog inputs plus direct ethanol sensor input
• CAN switching: Use the display as a keypad to send custom CAN messages
• Configurable alarms: Set warning thresholds (example: EGT warning above 900 °C)
• Logging: Save data to the internal SD card for later review
• Performance meter: 0–100, 100–200, and 0–200 timing without extra hardware
• DTC*: Read and clear faults for ECU, transmission, ABS, and all-wheel drive
• Auto dimming*: Dims with the instrument lighting

Pages and display layouts

• Delivered with predefined sample pages
• Create and use 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 with scalable widget sizes
• Fully adjustable widget colors
• Up to 64 widgets per page

Display Setup Software (DSS)

DSS is used to customize the display, download and review logs with the integrated log viewer, and use the built-in CAN logger. The integrated TRI Editor allows sensor management for CAN bus and internal sources, including naming and setting min/max warning thresholds.

Supported ECU values

The display supports CAN bus data queries (UDS, TP2, manufacturer-specific protocols) and K-Line (ISO 9141). It ships with predefined TRI/TRX files that define which sensors are queried; available channels vary 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.

Scope of delivery

• MFD32 Gen2 data display integrated in the ventilation insert (RHD vehicles)
• Vehicle-specific connection cable
• Quickstart guide
• USB data cable
• SD card (pre-installed in the display)
• SD card adapter
• Anti-reflection display foil

Connections and expansion

Four analog inputs support linear 0–5 V 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)

A pre-assembled AIN wiring harness can be used for connection.

An external 8-LED shift light can be connected; colors and speed limits are configurable on the display.

An ethanol sensor connects directly to the display and can be logged along with ethanol content and temperature.

Advanced functions

• Math channels: Calculate channels from other sensors
• User table: Create 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, 1/8 inch NPT
• CC22903 TCC01 – type K converter, 0–1250 °C
• CC22901 FLP01 – pressure sensor 0–10 bar (145 psi), M10x1
• CC22900 BST01 – pressure sensor 0–5.5 bar absolute (80 psi)
