73
This is a complete listing of available PIDs. AEM supplied setup files for OBDII messages will be located in the
\Documents\AEM\DashDesign\Setups\App Specific\OBDII folder.
The complete PID list will vary between cars so modification to the default setup is encouraged to view desirable
data.
Two ECU Addressing options are possible. This allows the user to select between functional and broadcast
message addressing. Functional addressing is the default configuration. Some vehicle platforms require Broadcast
addressing. Currently, the only known platform requiring this setting is the 2006-2013 2nd generation Mini Cooper.
Without this setting enabled, the OBDII PID discovery process will complete normally but no data will be displayed
on the dash. To apply this setting, complete the OBDII Scan Wizard normally following all screen prompts. At the
end of the process, go to Setup | Display… and select the CAN Receive tab. Select the Broadcast radio button as
shown in the screen shot above. Save the setup file and finally upload it to your dash.
Note: Any PID not logged or displayed on the setup will not be used or active while car is running. To better view
important data, increase request rate and remove unnecessary PIDs from setup.
