Install of Kenwood DNX-574S with MAESTRO RR module. This is for Haltech ECU owners only.

I have done the research and found that if you want display your OBDII data that is coming from the Haltech Elite's CanHi and CanLo wires there is a way to do this with car stereos that support Maestro RR Idatalink connections.
After it is hooked up to the kenwood it will allow you to display any data that is coming across the CAN bus. Which is pretty much anything you could possibly want to see.

Things needed ...

You will need a radio that supports the Maestro Module. There are several different brands. I have seen some reviews where the Pioneer gave issues with this feature. If you decide to pick another brand besides the Kenwood then do your research first.

I picked the Kenwood DNX-574S and it was $899.00 normally and Electronics Express had it on sale for $599.00

You will need a Maestro RR module. It is $149.00 from Best Buy

You will need a Haltech Elite 1500 ECU instead of the factory ECU. It is cost prohibitive if you don't have to have it for engine tuning. But as more and more people purchase them this addition isn't that far out of range. Cost is roughly $2200.00 for this ECU and harness.

You will need to download and flash the Maestro with the 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer flash. This will be all that is needed to hook the obd2 data up so its displayed on the radio. Its basically a generic flash that does not have HVAC and TPMS and all the stuff in modern cars. It is just for OBD2 data basically. (exactly what we want)

You wont need any vehicle specific modules for this. The Maestro RR kit comes with all you need as far as wiring is concerned.

This is the first post so I will be adding pictures as soon as I get into the install. Right now I am going to post the install instructions for the Lancer and the flash file for the Lancer.

I googled some pictures that show roughly how you can pick the center, right ,left and whatever position you want the gauge to appear.

You are an ECUist. I don’t appreciate you discriminating against me based upon my stock ECU!!

Or is it still stock if it had a Bob tune??

Either way, it’s no Haltech!

I am sorry. The flashed or stock ECU does not pay well with anyone. It has no user readable CAN signals. It does have CAN signals but we don't have a OBD2 way to decipher the signals.

I remember hooking my obd2 reader to the Haltech the first time and seeing all the wonderful data. It was magical.

Just picked my idatalink up.

Nope. I should have made a new thread and called it spring projects. Just got in some more goodies. I had to switch to a 1 AWG feed wire with 4 AWG taps off of it. I was running 4 AWG with 8 AWG taps off of it.

I never got that module to work correctly. Every time I hooked it to the CAN low and high I created a check engine light. Once I switched over to the Haltech ECU I tested it and it did work. The Haltech outputs 2 separate CAN signals. At the time there was no firmware for the Meastro unit out that would allow it to talk to the Polaris unit. You may want to send them an email and ask them if they have a firmware file out that will work with it now.
