    The specification file shows the mapping of bits (words) in the datastream to the PIDs.

    About the best thiung I can suggest you do is have a look at some other vehicle definitions against the data stream specifications that they relate to. Then hopefully you will see a correlation and be able to create one for your vehicle.

    I am sending you an email shortly with 6 files, 3 vehicle definitions, and 3 specifications which they relate to.

    Don't try to edit the xml file directly. You open/edit/save/ the data in the xml files using the menu options in the EFILive V4 software.

    thats really good to know, i actually was using windows word 07, and used Find And Replace with this to clean up then pasted back into notepad so i could see each individual bracket on 1 line

    Find= ><
    Replace with=>^p<

    the ^p will add a Break/enter/new line/ carriage return however you want to say it

    ok i was just really jumping into this and it seems to start making sense, some things im not understanding are things such as

    8 NEWRFPER+1 TIME BETWEEN REFERENCE PULSES (LSB)
    mSEC = N/65.536
    RPM = 1,310,720/N

    that does the "N" mean? where does each field go?

    'N' is the value being read from the datastream, the the calculation is reflected in the 'factor' cell (as a multiplier - so to divide is 0.??).

    In the gm163 file look at ECT, RPM and ACPRES for some comparisons.
