The Wikipedia page is fairly comprehensive about the OBD-II CAN
frames. You will NOT find published CAN data frame information as
this is proprietary to the manufacturer. There are some other forums
out there that hint at what's going on but no one is going to tell you
what messages are sent between the headlight controller and the main
ECU. :) (An example...)
With the Bosch spec and your filtering set up correctly you should be
able to read in the OBD-II data frames. You might have to learn how
to issue a request for data in order to receive a response. I would
suggest buying a "T" cable and an OBD-II scanner with CAN. Let your
board sit back and listen and learn with the scanner doing the
messaging. Once you see what's going on you can then write your own
routines to make your own scanner.

Yes that is the one of interest, I believe this is the one that
packetizes OBD packets into CAN packets.
Thanks!

Hi,
you should take a look on the ISO 15765-3 (Road vehicles - diagnostics
on CAN, Part 3: Implementation of unified diagnostic services), maybe
this will help you...

This confirms I didn't specify the proper ISO number. I'm familiar
with CAN bus, in the past I've developed CAN bus drivers for the
aerospace industry and I use CAN bus in several of my designs (based
on LPC2xxx chips by the way). I would like to know what the high level
format of the CAN messages is. I had a brain cramp and though it was
ISO 11898 but it's not. Anyhow, don't want to divert this forum from
its original purpose, I though somebody would have a quick answer.

Hi,
I understand the OBD adapters come in different flavours. I'm
interested in OBD2, supporting CAN bus, which is mandatory on al cars
built after 2008. I built an LPC2368-based datalogger and I want to
decipher the CAN bus frames I am receiving.

11898-1 appears to be the CAN protocol
11898-2,-4 and -5 are physical layers (the electrical and wire
connections), CAN supports quite a variety.
11898-3 is a higher level protocol (usually referred to as a HLP) that
builds on the CAN protocol, just as http builds on TCP/IP .

I don't think it's as simple as a single protocol. There's a
reason the
ODB adapters come in different flavours.
What are you trying to do? If you just want to read the data you are
probably better off getting a commercial adapter.

Thanks for your quick answer from both of you guys. I'm getting
confused now... Is ISO 11898 simply the CAN bus specification?? I'm
looking for information regarding CAN message format specifically used
by ECUs and OBD2. I though this was covered by ISO 11898, but based on
the links you've posted, it looks like ISO 11898 is simply the CAN bus
specification...
What's the specification for OBD2 using CAN bus? (mandatory in all
vehicles since 2008).
Thanks,
Jean

As always with Wikipedia don't believe everything you read. However, if
you don't believe it you can always change it ;-)

(Kvaser seems to be trying to make providing references to their site
difficult)
provides an overview of a number of higher level protocols.
From the looks of thing -3 and -5 are (incompatible?) physical layer
standard. -4 is the time triggered version that flexray was partly
developed to replace.
