Trying to get the Speedometer working. Am bruteforcing checking all CAN ID’s to see which one works.

Decoding can messages… I can’t find the can database for this car so Im trying to brute-force finding the codes, but tryna find on the web as well.

The CAN doesnt make sense
The needles are able to sweep, after 2 hours of debugging and brute-forcing CAN messages since I dont have the car, only the instrument cluster. But I have to find the equation that makes it scale number to actual RPM. That will be tough,

Finished the EEPROM Locking
The Audi S5 is known to go into component protection if it is tampered with without the proper ECU TCU gateway modules and whatnot.
So what I did was I forced the EEPROM into read-only. Making it unable to go into component protection, which essentially bricks the whole thing, and instead allowing us to debug and find the signal to use the instrument cluster properly.
