Vaughan Posted July 22 Report Share Posted July 22 Can you elaborate further, when you turn on the ign sw does the keypad not work until you unplug the keypad and then plug it back in? What else do you have connected to the CAN bus? Is it a keypad from Link or from somewhere else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSTrudel Posted July 22 Author Report Share Posted July 22 Yes 12 button keypad bought from link. And exactly this! when i put my kill switch ON the pad is supposed to lights up but it doesn’t until i unplug it and plug it back.. i have 2 razor pdms that you can see they lights up with the kill switch on. And i have a meatpie to make a dash work that goes on when i press the ign on the keypad. The keypad was fine i ran the car before ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted July 22 Report Share Posted July 22 So I have seen people have keypads turn off before that then didn't respond until power cycled and the reason for it is one of the other devices on the CAN bus sends a message on CAN ID 0 that is all 0s which is the CAN Open message for disable all devices. To prove that this is what is happening you can either: power everything on as normal then without power cycling the keypad connect to the ECU, open the CAN Setup window and then hit the apply button to resend an enable message and then see if the keypad works. OR: unplug your meatpie device and turn on as normal, see if keypad works when the other device wasn't connected to CAN. Or alternatively if you have a CAN sniffing tool then just hook that up and see what messages are sent at power on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSTrudel Posted July 24 Author Report Share Posted July 24 Hi ! I tried both solution and it did nothing unfortunately.. its so wierd… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 To confirm when you first turn on the kill switch does the keypad do it's power on light sequence or does it only do this when it is unplugged and then plugged back in? Also how is the keypad being powered, is it connected to an ignition switched feed or is it being powered by something like a PDM output?

JSTrudel Posted July 24 Author Report Share Posted July 24 Exactly nothing until i unplug and plug back! And its on a pdm output yes ! Pdms light up when i put killswitch on . Big thank you for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 Can you do the Device search in the CAN Setup window CAN Devices tab and then open the configure window for the keypad and let me know what the firmware version of the keypad is please, after talking to one of the other Engineers I'm suspicious that it might be a keypad firmware issue.

If it is a firmware issue it will require communication with Blink to sort which firmware package is needed and it will need to be installed with a USB to CAN device.

Vaughan Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 you need to hit the "Configure Device" button adn the firmware version should be specified at the top of the window from memory, alternatively there should be a sticker on the back of the keypad showing hardware version and the firmware version that was installed when it was made.

Vaughan Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 Can you attach a copy of your ECU tune and both PDM configs please, your explanation there makes it sound like the issue was actually conflicting CAN IDs (The Keypads use a large range of CAN IDs, more than just the one you set in the CAN Setup window) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
