Writing OBD2 commands in a loop

I am developing a mobile app to do some OBD2 tests and monitoring via bluetooth and i want to write some OBD2 commands inside a for loop, in a interval of a second (1000ms) or even less. Is there some chance of damage the ECU of my car or some limitation (number of written commands to x ammout of time) in the way the ECU could answer to my commands?

Solution

  • You’re not gonna do damage, if it’s too much it will more than likely just stop replying.

    When programming an ecu it communicates about about 1 message per millisecond. So I’m sure a few messages every second will be nothing.
