Canbus in my car Audi A3 2009, works for reversing camera, steering wheel controls, and display inside instrument cluster shows some info about HU, if radio is turned on - frequency, if phone, shows phone, aux, media but everyrhing is very minimalistic...
In HU, car settings there is app for canbus settings, maybe you can try to enable a/c, door open or similar it doesnt work on my car, but personaly that not bother me.
I have LZ canbus box, maybe 1.1 version or similar.
With my car, canbus works for:
auto reverse cam, parking sensors animation (icon with car with colored waves approaching), dynamic steering lines, all buttons on the steering wheel ok, doors open everywhere, show ext. temperature,setup units (C or F) Km or M measurement unit, setup to see in the oem dashboard display the fuel consumption in lt\100km or KM\lt and something else.
It should work (but I don't have) temperature control of the heated seats.
It does not work:
- Nothing inherent AC climatic dual control (for me it would be very important to have this instead) as the HU hides the oem command display (below) and when I have to set the dual control temperatures I can't see the oem display well.
- any info in the oem display on the dashboard (ardio transmitter, etc.) that I could see with the oem BMW radio instead.
- NO infos (directly in the HU) relating to fuel consumption\residual consumption\average speed.
Note:
in the gui of canbus\HU there are also other settings (setup timer for coming and leaving home with the front lights) and more that I don't remember, but I don't want to act on these things, which maybe later ruin the various control units of the car. ..
I also have canbus hardware by LZ and for never auto I have to use this setting... maybe the AC problem here!
For those who have the AC climatic contol WORKING???
- What kind of canbus hardware does it have?
- Model?
- Builder?
- Canbus setting of your car?
