I've wired up my arduino like this and go to download the code and it comes up with error messages. I know how to code a little but not something this extensive. I decided to use the older version because the schematic was simpler and the more up to date one didn't have any functions that I really needed. I was hoping someone who already knew how the code worked could fix it for me. I really just want the instant and tank mpg, miles left in tank would be nice but I don't really need it. Thanks for any help.

Can you post the error messages that you're getting?

Here is the copy and paste version. and again thank you.
Unrelated question: how do you get your vehicle to show up in the signature area of your posts?

Ah. You'll need to find an obsolete version of the IDE to compile this. I don't know where one could be found.

Veen · 05-16-2016, 10:28 AM

If it's just an obsolete version you need. Generally 1.0.6 works well when 1.6.X doesn't. You can download it from the Arduino website here https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/OldSo...eases#previous

I use Arduino and other micro-controllers a lot but have I don't have any experience with the MPGuino code base. Hopefully this helps.

AndrzejM · 05-16-2016, 06:08 PM

Try not to open INO file but just copy and paste the code as a text.

berkin88 · 02-04-2017, 08:16 AM

Can you find a solution?

teoman · 02-04-2017, 05:34 PM

Welcome Berkin

I am also interested in this, as you live close by maybe i can help you out a little bit.

t vago · 02-04-2017, 06:02 PM

I have a version of MPGuino that is far more capable that the original v0.86 code, it supports many different Arduino platforms, and it compiles with the current Arduino IDE.
