Has anyone tested the PID setting posted here for the Transmission temp?

The OBDlink MX app comes up with a warning that things could go wrong if the wrong info is put in.

I have a XLT 2017 model and I have been told they came out with 2 different transmissions.

Use this

Transmission Temperature

Min Value: 0
Max Value: 200
Header: 7E1
Mode: 22
PID: 1E1C
Equation: ((A*256)+B)*5/72-17

or

((A*256)+B)*10/160 - Test this please as it should show close to ambient temp when vehicle is cold.

Nothing will go wrong, it will work or will not work.

Thanks saeb, both lines of code "test succeeded" once I removed one of (

I will try it out soon as it says the current temp reads 6.5 cold.

The C is not in the display but I assume it will read in Celcius

When a custom PID is made is there a way to get the symbol to show.
psi, nm, c etc

All the calculations I do will be in maths that Australia uses in the real world. So, psi, nm, degrees celcius etc. I cannot guarantee the existing gauges in any of the programs are in the correct format but mine always are.

I cannot remember if the symbols can be shown but you could modify the gauge description to show this.

By default the modules are giving metric values before any maths are done so it does make the process a little easier for us.
