iDash Pro software update, oil pressure added

[Squirrel13]

Finally! Literally the only PID I wanted when I bought it 6 months ago. Mounted mine using the Banks A pillar mount. Took 10 min to install it using the included trim tool.
I see the Pro firmware add oil pressure PID for the 20-25 6.7 too. Have to ring Banks and see if the idash data monster firmware will display it.

I would assume it works for either engine, but I have the 2.7. This is the parameter list on their website. There may be more now though, not sure.

I check the list at this time it is a negative on the 2.3 working with the iDash.

I think the website is just a little messed up. It’s not in the list, but it does show it. No idea why it only says 23-24. I’m willing to bet it works for all broncos. You can always contact them to double check though.

@Ducati1098 thanks

I think their website is weird. When I search for products for my 24 Wildtrak 2.7 only 1 part shows.

I hope oil temp makes it to the next release. Should be easy for them. Exhaust gas temp would be my next choice entering or exiting the turbo. I'm not sure what "EGR Bank 2 Sensor 1" is other then it's the exhaust gas recirc temp on bank 2 and one of the sensors.

I don’t think we will see any of that. There are no EGT sensors, and the oil temperature is just an inferred value. No sensor for that either.

The EGR temperature sensor reads after the gas has been through the cooler, so it won’t be really accurate as pre or post turbo EGT

I'd personally like to have the battery SOC available.

That would be nice, it really only pulls powertrain data though

I can confirm that the oil pressure PID works on my 24 Wildtrak 2.7. I also discovered the commanded transmission gear also displays the current gear.

Do you have the iDash Pro? or the iDash datamonster?
I have the classic datamonster, but mine was already at the latest firmware, and I don't see oil pressure anywhere.

In the Bronco I have the Pro. It displays oil pressure as well as transmission gear. In the F350 I have idash data monster. Called banks. They agreed the 6.7 oil pressure is missing from data monster. We’ll see if they can add it. They have the 6.7 Oil Pressure PID for the PRO shouldn’t be too hard to get it added to the data monster

I have the iDash data monster in my 2023 SD, I hope they add oil pressure as well.

I had the older gen... Data Monster (Stnd and Data) in a Banks Dual Pod Mount in F450 6.7, and they started to fail... power off, reboot, lock up, etc. Got a nice upgrade incentive to the new Pro & Data Pro. I can easily say the Pro & Data Pro are much better. Just the ability to configure the Screen on your Phone is so much better; and Phone Updates via Banks app just adds to value.

Great to hear they've added Oil Pressure to the 6.7, I was getting ready to add a sensor when I added the Mouse to the Truck.

I use it for Diesel EGTs, Temps, etc.
Was considering it for the BRaptor, but wasn't sure how popular it was in the Bronco world. Looks like it's a pretty popular gauge for Bronco Gas too.

I like the Banks Vent Pod Mount, although the AeroForce link by @Ducati1098 looks very nice too.

The AreoForceTech Dual Pod for Bronco looks pretty awesome too. I liked the single AreoForce a bit better than the Banks Vent Pod mount, but the Dual Looks great! I run Dual Pod on my F450 6.7 Diesel, 1/2 of the 2nd Screen is the Pedal Monster. Leaving about 12 possible data points visible simultaneously. Although I'm not sure if a Gas Bronco 3.0L is benefiting with all the data points as a Diesel.
