I believe that part of the system is protected and proprietary software. As far as I am aware of. Dealer, manufacturer and investigating authorities have access.
I cant be sure about the Hyundai, But as a tech in the Heavy truck industry there are areas of the system I cant access or even take a look-see. Todays big rigs have ECM, BCM, CCM, Engine interface module and Freightliner now has the Cascadia system with even more shared circuits on twisted pairs.

I can only access things like record of panic stops with Freightliner access software and dealer access code.

SBR711 will probably be one of the few that can give you a definitive answer on that, I would say drop him a line.

 

Got it. So this is not something that is provided to the vehicle owner when requested to a dealership say after an accident?

Most of our recent SRSCM will have slot for event 1 & Event 2 data,, I think it tells if belts latched, what exploders got fired, and mayby occupant in pass seat.. normally it comes up "No crash recorded".. body shop get them and does repairs, then we might end up with it if they cant get light to go out,, as we have software to get in, they dont.

Through OBD-II?

Ok..Ill address the elephant in the room....what did you do?

 

We're developing a "black box" per se for KDM vehicles and wanted to compare the data here vs Korea. That's all~

you can get a clone GDS VIC from china, but then your stuck trying to find a legit copy of the software to work with it.

interesting none the less.

 

For a personal car, is there a value to having this type of information?

To me black box tracking makes me want to put on my tin hat and hatch conspiracy theories. I dont like the idea any more than speed cameras.

It does if you have your kids drive your car. Speeds and locations visited sure would be interesting. There is a trust factor consideration of course.

 

Here in WA, the owner must know that the car comes with an EDR. Just looked up the law and if it's not in writing or in the manual, then it's illegal. Also, it says that the owner of the car must be able to access all the information that's collected.

 

You're exactly right. I was just about to point that out. So according to the OM, we are entitled to this data upon request. Any thoughts?

Check out this site for sample data: GM, Saturn, General Motors, Airbag, Air Bag, Black Box, SDM, EDR, Event Data Recorder, Sample Accident Crash Data, Bosch CDR Sample Data, Sample Event Data Recorder Crash Data

link didnt work tried again.

 

According to the Sonata owner's manual, page 1-6 (after "vehicle break in process"), we do have an EDR and "special equipment" is required to access the data.
