The OBDb lists 358 parameters for the Kia Optima, read from 9 control modules. Real responses from Kia Optima cars confirm 70 of the parameters. Drivers have tested model years 2012 to 2015, 2018 to 2020.
Support by model year
A solid mark means a real response confirmed the parameter. A light mark means the car's signalset reads it but no response has confirmed it yet.
Parameters
The parameters of the Kia Optima, by group. These are the commands that Kia added, and the SAE J1979 standard parameters that real cars confirm. Open a group to see its parameters, how Pelican decodes each one, and the model years that real cars confirm.
