I still would want to control the start and fake temps though some kind interface. If ccdisce can get a market to do at least 1 run of them and can sell them for $50 I would consider buying one. From my point of view its not worth the pursuit of professional production even in the smallest quantity. No one is going to make BIG money off this his hack. Easy and cheap enough to DIY or buy one for $50 and there still is not a BIG market for either. If I was to do comparisons I would compare this hack to somewhere between an EV button and an anytime reverse camera mod. I dont have the numbers for the CAN-View but I'm sure they are close or I'm willing to bet lower than the MIMA kits. We are also comparing MIMA to a simple temperature hack.

I know that if I can adjust the start and fake temp settings and the price is right I would buy one off of you.ġ68 users of MIMA ( I'm one of them #156P ) Vs 17000 Insights is still about 1% but the Insight community is much more enthusiastic than the Prius community in my opinion. I could be wrong and you could sell out on day 1. I'm also doing mine open source because I'm no programmer or electronics engineer and I sometimes need help fixing mistakes or being shown a better way of doing something. I don't think this is an add on that you can make money off of. I only built them because I had the spare parts.
#CCDISK REVIEW MANUAL#
I have sold I think two of the manual and two of the hardware based automatic hacks that I built.

Plus there is the legal issue of this supposedly modifying the emissions system. You do have to take advantage of the hack in order to increase your MPG. Mostly because in general people don't need it or want it. You still have to buy the hardware.įor a project like this I doubt you could sell 10 of them. And yes being open source does not mean totally free. I will continue work on my Arduino project as I like the idea of open source for such a project. I would love to beta test your spoofer but I dont do NDA's.
#CCDISK REVIEW FULL#
The LCD and the switches add the ability to change the trip points without needing a full re-flash, the Spoofer has code which enables it to change and save the trip points on the fly. Once the Spoofer has started spoofing, the temperature displayed on the Scangauge is the spoofed value the actual value is only known to the 'spoofer' hardware which now uses a table lookup algo to convert the A2D reading to deg F and display it on its LCD. Four degrees of hysteresis were added to remove the possibility of 'hunting' at the lower trip point. The Firmware will trip out at 3-4 degrees lower around 108. At 166 it will quit spoofing and pass on the actual temperature to the ECU.Ĭooling down from above 166 deg it wll trip on at 166 and display 166 all the way down to the lower trip out point.

When the car is warming up it wll start spoofing when the temperature exceeds 112 deg F showing 166 deg F when the actual temperature is between 112 and 166. I made changes to the Assembly Code in the Prius ECT Spoofer to improve the accuracy of the LCD readout which will now display the coolant temperature at all times.
