You're right, they're not at 100%. That's why I said almost perfect. You have to sometime cycle through ignition to get it working. But for a pretty cheap translator it's absolutely worth it.CAN protocol is a very simple protocol, you just need 2 wires (CAN high and CAN low) to transmit data...that's why the auto industry uses it. For example, in my line of work, we primarily work with automation for high voltage equipment....so CAN BUS wouldn't be as efficient as say ModBus over TCP or DNP for electrical interfaces (HMI's) or controllers that need more data points transmitted. However, this still doesn't make interfacing CAN with older ECU's or integrating emulators with CAN a reliable or affordable solution. There are a few standalone ECU's that can integrate with CAN, but they are still ways away from being 100%.
Btw, Pure Automotive still has a check engine light that appears with their solution no? The 86 works, but will it pass emissions when they connect the cord???
Regarding the CEL, I doubt it shows. It is controlled directly through CAN BUS and if my guy figured it out they have as well.
