Hi,
Does anyone know if you can make different OEM parts work together? My understanding is that they do not talk the same CAN language, therefore you have to do something about it, but what?
So if I have parts from a salvage yard like this:
- Old car with cool chassi.
- Good Motor, like tesla or E-tron motor (or drive unit).
- Nice batteries, like i3 or leaf batteries (packs or modules).
- Inverter from somewhere, maybe attached to motor, maybe from another car.
- Random BMS (Should match battery maker maybe?)
- All the other cables, cooling, safety switches... etc.
- VCU - This is my biggest area of non-understanding. How do you make everything work together??
How will I control everything without the software from each car?
Is it even possible?
