Controlling Ford mondeo mk5 instrument cluster

[rhys4422]

Does anyone have a pinout for a ford mondeo mk5 instrument cluster and can ids For it?

You might struggle a bit there ! If you have access to the loom you should be able to identify the can connections

I don't but I cant find anything online about this

I had the same issue with a Ka instrument pod I wanted to use and couldn’t find anything - went to a Ford dealer , they didn’t know either !
Maybe worth a question on some of the racing car simulator forums or a Ford forum

Good luck .

I found it but do you know the can codes or could you fix this code for me

Thats what im going off dont know much about making arduino sketches Trying to send the ignition code to the cluster Could you please help with this

#include <mcp_can.h>
#include <SPI.h>

// the cs pin of the version after v1.1 is default to D9
// v0.9b and v1.0 is default D10
const int SPI_CS_PIN = 9;

MCP_CAN CAN(SPI_CS_PIN);  

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(115200);
  
START_INIT:
    if(CAN_OK == CAN.begin(CAN_500KBPS))                   // init can bus : baudrate = 500k
    {
        Serial.println("CAN BUS Shield init ok!");
    }
    else
    {
        Serial.println("CAN BUS Shield init fail");
        Serial.println("Init CAN BUS Shield again");
        delay(100);
        goto START_INIT;
    }
}
void loop()
{
    unsigned char stmp3[5] = {16, 17, 0, 0, 20};
    CAN.sendMsgBuf(0xc8, 1, 5, stmp3);  
    delay(100); 
          
}
