Lotus factory CAN DASH

Recommended Posts

With help from adam I was able to setup CAN communication to the Lotus factory dash, the dash in question is refered to as the white face dash and is used in the 2zz powered Elise and Exige circa 2007.

The following can be communicated to the dash
Speedo
Engine speed RPM
Fuel tank level
Coolant Temperature
CE Light
TC Light
Oil Pressure light
Shift Light

Provided you have wired in your CAN 2 into the chassis CAN circuit you will just need to configure the following

Bit Rate 1mb

wheel speed Start position 0 width 8
Engine speed Start position 16 width 16
Fuel Level Start position 32 width 8
Coolant Temp Start position 40 width 8 offset 17
CE Light Start position 54 width 1
TC Light Start position 52 width 1
Oil Pressure Light Start position 53 width 1
Shift Light Start position 55 width 1

The math block settings I used for the fuel level sender and coolant temp are as follows;

Fuel tank level Equation (a/5*100*2.8) 
Coolant temp Equation (a*9/5)+32
