What is Open Vehicle Diagnostics?
Open Vehicle Diagnostics (OVD) is a powerful open-source project built in Rust that brings car diagnostics into the modern age. It uses the J2534-2 standard, the same protocol dealers use, and leverages SocketCAN on Linux to communicate with your car’s ECUs.
The goal is simple but awesome: let anyone access, diagnose, and even reprogram their vehicle’s systems without needing proprietary tools. With OVD, everything is exposed through an API, making it easier than ever to explore what's going on under the hood and take control of your car's software, all on your own terms.
