Compatible with J1850 and CAN protocols, it feeds real-time speed, tachometer, and engine temperature info to select Dakota Digital instrument systems, with optional calibration for tire or gear changes. Perfect for professionals seeking advanced vehicle insights and seamless integration. ## Description The BIM-01-2 OBD-II (J1850/CAN) Interface allows you to plug directly into the engine diagnostic port, extracting engine and transmission data from the vehicle's computer (ECM). The BIM-01-2 will collect and output the following information to Dakota Digital Instrument Systems *: Always available: Speed Tachometer Engine Temp Check Engine Indicator Vehicle specific: Intake Air Temp Transmission Temp Ambient Air Temp Gear Position Oil Pressure Please note: Due to the various factory and modified ECM's, additional data including (Intake Temp, Transmission Temp, Ambient Air Temp, Oil Pressure, and Gear Position) may be available, but will vary from application to application. We cannot guarantee the presence or accuracy of the Intake Temp, Transmission Temp, Ambient Air Temp, Oil Pressure, or Gear Position displays since this is a function of the ECM and matching OEM functional sensors. This product can provide a +/- 25 percent calibration to compensate for tire size or gear changes which have affected the speedometer output. *The BIM-01-2 is designed to decode the information provided by the ECM through OBD-II and supply this information to the VFD3 rev. G and VHX control box instrument systems only. Earlier control boxes (with an aluminum case) are not compatible with the BIM family of Expansion Modules. **The BIM-01-2 is designed for J1850 and CAN OBD protocols only. Compatible with OBDII protocols SAE J1850 VPW, SAE J1850 PWM and ISO 15765 CAN 500k 11 bit identifiers that follow the SAE J1979 PID protocol.****GM Connect & Cruise packages do not transmit the gear position data, preventing the BIM-01-2 from acquiring this information. ## Features - The BIM-01-2 OBD-II (J1850/CAN) Interface allows you to plug directly into the engine diagnostic port, extracting engine and transmission data from the vehicle's computer (ECM). - The following info will be output to Dakota Digital systems by the BIM-01-2: speed, tach, engine temp. - *The BIM-01-2 is designed to decode the information provided by the ECM through OBD-II and supply this information to the RTX, HDX, VHX and VFD3 systems with a black plastic control module. For any BIM-compatible control boxes which contain the 3.5mm headphone jack BIM input, add part number 394193 adaptor harness. Earlier instrument systems with an aluminum control module are not capable of BIM connectivity - **The BIM-01-2 is designed for J1850 and CAN OBD protocols only.
