Avesh,

Welcome.

We do focus on electric cars, but there is nothing in the project really specific to them. I have recently made quite a few changes to the generic OBDII driver to introduce a generic polling mechanism, and that vehicle support should be quite reasonable when that code is released (still a work-in-progress today).

My concern with generic OBDII though is the 12V battery. OVMS does not currently implement a sleep mode, and it is not so easy in the current architecture and hardware, so power drain may be a concern for cars with small batteries.

> I wish to contribute and test with others cars using standard OBD11 and probably getting more data that simple OBD. But the query is will your app or server require changes . Since you have codes available online can we make changes to adjust server/app for various other cars.

Everything we have is in the project HEAD now. I suggest you look at my new vehicle.{h,c} and vehicle_obdii.c code to see how it works. You can see that it should be fairly easy to extend. Have a look at it, and then come back to us with any questions / suggestions you have.

Regards, Mark.
