Unable to create new vehicule module

Hello,

 

I am having trouble creating a vehicle module for the car I'd like to add support to (VW ID3.)

 

What I have done so far :

  • Followed markwj's guide https://www.openvehicles.com/node/2437
  • Created a folder components/vehicle/vehicle_vwid3. It's essentially a copy of the vehicle_obdii folder in the same folder. I have obviously adapted the references to match my new vehicle module
  • Adapted the Kconfig file (added a section for my vehicle)
  • make menuconfig : I have unselected other vehicles, and selected my new vehicle module
  • make flash : The project compiles and flashes correctly.
  • Connect to the OVMS module, go to the 'enable' mode, type vehicle module <tab> <tab> and notice that (1) the unselected vehicles in the components are indeed missing and that (2) my new MEB module is absent.

 

You can see my current work here :

git repo :  https://github.com/qpeten/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System-3/tree/master

specific commit showing my changes :  https://github.com/openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System-3/commit/31674778b0a94fc625c8d3c0f61a6aa475db254c

 

What else do I have to do in order to be able to select my vehicule module ?

 

Please keep in mind that while I am proficient with Linux and well versed with simple Arduino project, I know just enough about development to be dangerous.

 

Thank you for your help,
