Chris Todd Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hi, Does anyone know if both CAN 1 and CAN 2 busses on a Fury ECU can be connected together to allow for 12 Data channels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechDave Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 What's the application? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Todd Posted February 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hi Dave, I'm configuring a dash and would like extra channels in addition to the 6 CAN ID channels available in the CAN 2 module i'm currently using to the MAX, I'm wondering if I can physically connect bus 1 & 2 together to transmit an additional 6 Channels on separate ID's, I presume the ECU has internal 120 ohm resistors on each BUS but the dash also has one internally so not sure how this would work.

Richard Hill Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 It should work, I have done this with an extreme before on a customers car when i ran out of ID channels. You are limited to 10 streams overall though IIRC, so you still won't get 12. HTH, Richard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Todd Posted February 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Thanks Richard, i'll give it a go, I think 10 streams would be enough for my application but 6 is definitely not. Appreciate the input :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can turn off the 120 ohm resistor in the dash (if it's an AiM you can) then it will work if you make the ecu each end of the bus.

Chris Todd Posted February 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Thanks Dave, will contact the Dash Manufacturer to see if this is possible, appreciate the reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Can the dash not interpret compound messages? What dash do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
