Hi,
I am doing control area network project... where i have to sense the temperature value in one node and i have to transmit it to the other node using CAN Bus..The problem is that the lcd just display "Temp= _ ". I will attach the code ...can anyone help me to solve the problem...

Microcontroller:PIC 18F458
Oscillator:20 Mhz
Compiler:MikroC
CAN Tranceiver:MCP2551

/*The LCD is connected to the microcontroller as follows:
Microcontroller LCD
