To connect your i.MX6-based board to a car over the CAN bus using OBD-II car protocol, you first have to connect your i.MX6 board's CAN bus to the CAN bus of the car's OBD-II connector:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics

Then, you have to study the OBD-II protocol:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OBD-II_PIDs

And then you have to start entering PIDs from the processor and receiving parameters from the car's ECU and other systems.

You can google much more in the internet on that matter.


Have a great day,
Artur
