Modern cars have MASSIVE digital displays, loads of computers systems monitoring every subsystem and internal diagnostics running to the OBDII ports.
Why the hell can’t we get diagnostic feeds on our console or infotainment center?
I’m not aware of any car manufacturers selling their own diagnostic ASICs, so it’s not an extra margin to squeeze afaik…
What gives? Any insight into this beyond the usual muh corporate profits conjecture?
I use a Veepeak OBDII reader, and run Car Scanner on my phone or a tablet to access that data. And yeah, it would be nifty if I didn’t have to add one or more additional screens to do that. It’s cumbersome.
