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 can’t even get my manufacturer to give me a fuse box diagram… what make do you drive if you don’t mind me being nosy?
2004 Honda Accord Coupe. Yup, screens even back then. (On the fancy models)
It’s… a trooper. First thing I did after I bought the car was purchase the service manuals for $400. It’s so easy to maintain.
I looked that up for my partners newer car. Annual subscription to a service manuals is $1500+.
