If you are like me, you may have completed the S550 Digital Cluster swap. I kept my old instrument cluster for the past few years, wondering what to do with it.

Today I am releasing a collection of python scripts that allow you to hook your cluster up to your computer and allow it to work in racing sims such as Forza Horizon 5.

The code repository can be found here: EricTurner3/s550-canbus: Research and scripts for the Ford S550 Mustang CAN Bus (github.com)

And here are some video demonstrations:



Note: This script is still in alpha stages. I have been able to map RPM, Speed & Backlight so far. Notice in the video, one of the annoyances is the seatbelt alarm goes off when driving. Definitely next on my radar.
I have progress on other icons that show up such as traction control but it is not currently implemented to change from game values. My GitHub also has CAN dumps of my 2016 GT350 (since I sold the 2015 GT this cluster came from) and a CAN Database if you wish to help me crack more functionality from the CAN bus.

That's a cool idea to use a cluster for gaming in that manner.
