Canbus android Head Unit

[ombakjernih]

Hi everyone. 

I installed android player to my car since 2022.

Before this I never bother about the extra function using canbus box because my car didn't come with 18 unit speaker.

Last year I make a study about the function of canbus and make some modification.

 

1) I bought the socket for meter 40pin. This socket connect to canbus box and HU. Original for other car. 

2) I change the connection point to 13&14 follow the diagram

3) then I bought canbus Toyota from raise.

4) after that setting the HU

 

You can get information like 

- parking trajectory 

- door information 

- parking radar

- outdoor temperature 

- millage odometer 

- average consumption

Hello Ombak,

Hi

 

I looked into getting Canbus information to the head unit but there is no signal in the wiring behind it. It looks in your photo that you are taking it from behind the dashboard which makes sense as all the data is shown on the dash. I think you can also get it from the ODB socket, in fact I bought a cable a long time ago from AliExpress that came with an ODB plug. I never tried it

Yes. Either you tap from meter or obd still the same. this is the wiring to get data Tx & Rx from canH and canL only. 

But the obd port I connected with elm327.

Hi Ombak,

Was your Android HU already a 360 camera version or did you need load an app to get the 360 camera function to work? - just bought a 2014 Alphard with the factory 360 camera and the 18 speaker system and am researching Android HU options 🙂

Yes. My HU come with 360 camera. As per new different technology my advise is change with new camera. 

You need to buy canbus with decoder amplifier as you mention with 18 speaker.
