Hi, was hoping for a bit of clarification on this specific question: "When interfacing with an existing CAN bus to extract specific data, what is the primary challenge compared to setting up communication between known aftermarket devices?"

The accepted answer suggests that programming aftermarket devices "requires advanced coding skills", but my interpretation from the course was that this typically wasn't necessary (unless you're actually developing these devices yourself. But not for installing and implementing them?). Instead, around the 3:43 mark and beyond in the "What is a 'CAN Bus'?" video, it seems the answer the to aforementioned quiz question would be that you typically won't have documentation of existing transmitted data and specific CAN dialect (4:14).

Meanwhile, I don't see in the video transcription any mention of coding.

Looking forward to clarification - thanks!
