Honda Motorcycle Dash
NOTE: This is a 'Alpha' and a work in progress
What is this?
This is my attempt to build an information display / dashboard replacement (or additon) for modern Honda motorcycles. It connects to the bike via its diagnostic port and reads information directly from the ECU
It also contains a GPS module and support for an ambient temperature / humidity sensor
Hardware
The below hardware is used in the current design. For further information see the hardware section of the wiki
- Espressif ESP32 (Node32S for development, ESP32WROOM for build)
- 2.8" ILI9341 based SPI TFT Display
- DHT22 Temperature/Humidity Sensor
- Serial GPS Module
- L9637D Monolithic bus driver with ISO 9141 interface
Eagle CAD files for the hardware are available in the pcb folder, and designs for 3D printing a housing are available in the case folder
Software & Features
The code is written for the ESP32 in C\C++ and is designed to be built with PlatformIO
On startup the device connects to the bike's ECU and displays the following information
- Engine Temperature
- Engine RPM
- Battery Voltage
- Throttle Position %
- Intake Air Temperature C
- Neutral Switch
- Side Stand Switch
- Bike Speed
It also displays the following information from other sensors
- GPS Speed (GPS)
- Ambient Temperature (DHT22)
The below features are intended to be available in the future
- Gear Position (Based on Speed + RPM) (ECU)
- Heading (North, South, East, West, etc) (GPS)
- Ambient Humidity (DHT22)
- Smartphone Notifications (ESP32 BLE)
- Smartphone "Now Playing" (ESP32 BLE)
For further information, see the software section of the wiki section of the wiki
