I believe some insurance companies' tracking devices use the OBDII for power and monitoring.
I think I remember reading a clause in the Tesla purchase agreement where you agree not to do this.
Do you recall where? The reason I ask is that I allowed a vendor to tinker with that port under the cubby so that they could develop a monitoring solution for the Model S (since the OBD II port has nothing on it). They were successful in being able to "read" data from it and have offered me one of their monitoring devices in return for my help. So far I have declined because I was worried about exactly this.
You may not, or may not attempt to, reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, tamper with or engage in any similar activity in respect of a Tesla Vehicle, nor may you permit any third party to do so, save only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
The State of Oregon is about to replace the gas tax with a "mileage driven" tax. In view of the debate/uncertainty concerning the OBDII interface in Teslas, does anyone know how the State intends to monitor miles driven?
ODOT’s new concept for mileage-based user fees will provide motorists options and not require the use of GPS.Some motorists could use an app on the smart phone they’re already using, while others may choose a flat annual fee or an odometer reporter used in the insurance industry that contains no GPS technology.Still others may choose a GPS-based navigation system that can tell when they’re not in state or are traveling off public roads so they don’t have to pay Oregon taxes for those miles.
I was at the Rockville Service Center today and asked hem about it. I was told that the car has an OBDII connector because it is required by law. However, I was told that it does nothing; that the only pins connected to the connector are ground and voltage.
artsci said:True. There's no other output.
Well, I will ask in another way. What software can read and delete errors on this car? And what need an adapter?
