Laptimer not exporting vehicle ECU data - please help

Post by WolfpackAWD »

Last Friday I spent a day at Virginia Int'l Raceway with 6 sessions on track, each roughly 30 minutes long. For each session Harry's Laptimer was actively linked to my Kiwi 3 OBD-2 bluetooth dongle. Since then I've exported videos from Harry's that include some overlay data from my car's ECU (car in question is a 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition). However, when I export the data files (in csv) format to my PC none of this data is visible/included. All that is found in the csv file is track timing information.

What's the issue here and why isn't Laptimer exporting this information? I've done the exact same thing previously with my 2012 Mercedes C63 AMG and it exported all the ECU data I could ever want.

Please help!

When exporting multiple laps to CSV, you will get an overview with timing information and a separate large file with detail data.

Thank you for the reply. I don't understand why, but I wasn't getting both csv files to download. Just tried again and there it is. Must be your expert attention. Keep up the good work!

Hi,
What specific timing information is included in the overview when exporting laps to CSV?

When exporting multiple laps to CSV, you will get a list of lap times (the smaller file) and a list of all positions recorded for all laps. The former is redundant information in terms of timing and can be derived from the bigger file too.
