Open Vehicle Diagnostics (OVD) is a Rust-based open source vehicle ECU diagnostic platform that makes use of the J2534-2 protocol.
The idea is to make diagnosing and exploring your cars diagnostics functions possible, via an API, thus allowing the ability for you to reprogram ECU’s without the need for a special dealer-only tool.
This is for my University FYP for my degree at the University of Reading
