Edit->Modules

EFILive works by sending requests to certain modules. Modules, to which EFILive will be required to send requests, must be defined here.

If you plan to send requests with different modes to the same module - you will need to define multiple modules with the same ID and different modes.


EFILive is not designed to work with SRS or ABS.
Do not attempt to modify the SRS, ABS or other safety related modules;
you may inadvertently alter the correct and safe functioning of those modules.
