Hi JGKempen,
What kind of CAN device are you using? Is it a low speed device, which is terminated on the board or is it a high speed device, which is not terminated internaly?
perhaps the student has addad the termination inside the connector for the CAN device?
To your device: perhaps you have to power the ignition pin too to get the device running?
A second thing you should check is whether or not your CAN device is internaly powered or externaly powered. Check the blue jumper on the board. If it is externaly powered, connect battery and ground to the Cable as well. (Pin 9 and Pin 3)

As far as needing to power the ignition, I have tried and not had
any success. It caused voltage to fluctuate alot and
nothing else noticeable.
As far as I know my device is externally powered- I have been hooking up power terminals to a power supply and its supposed to work in the 9-14v range. Since it is externally powered you say I need to also supply the power and ground to (Pin 9 and Pin 3) to get it to work? I kinda wondered about this, I Will try to see it that fixes it.
Thanks
