I have an air bag fault flashing on the dash but torque (free version) says there are no active faults and there's nothing in the history. I just got the Dongle/app so not entirely sure what I'm doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try forscan its a windows application. You will need a laptop with bluetooth connectivity. I find its better for alot of things. Gauges are the main reason I use torque. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to get my windows tablet turned on to get more figures.However, this is the formulae(burkey05) that has been used lately:(((A*256)+B)*3/68The formula may be correct for you(burkey05) as you are using an infrared thermo reader and so your formulae is going to match your readings.Attached is a screenshot of my layout in Torque. As you can see the EOT is lower than the coolant and does not seem right.I did some research and I found this page which has the formula's to convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit,http://www.mathsisfun.com/temperature-conversion.htmlIt does not look like anything we have, but then again, we are getting raw hex data from the obd port.As mentioned before, someone found some info on the Siemens web page, I will try and stick with this(((A*256)+B)*5/72Jorsh, in regards to coming up with a formulae, I think we need to figure out what the 5/72 represents. A + B are surely the hex data coming from the obd port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I get it right. (*END RANT)http://beta.ar15.com/archive/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=1586732One thing I noticed from this page is that they use the same PID as us.I am hoping that they have the right formula.
