Hello.

Has anyone here ever gone looking for the entertainment system track display name on the vehicle CAN? By that I mean the name of the CD track or MP3 track that is displayed on both the Sync3 screen and the left hand screen in the dash.

Thanks.

Yes, message is clearly visible on HS3 from memory. I do not remember the can ID, also it is multiframe.

HS CAN 3. Message may be there on HS CAN 1 but I honestly do not remember.

Bus is not exposed at the OBD port and will need to be tapped into elsewhere or at the rear of the gateway module.

That diagram is very useful, do you have a key to identify the modules in English?

Is the binnacle in HS3 too?

Without me writing up a list a Google search has found https://www.carbibles.com/automotive-abbreviations/ which should list what you need.
