Can Bus Shield Not Receiving Data I am trying to connect my Arduino Uno board with SeeedStudio Can Bus Shield to my 2006 325i BMW. After compiling and uploading the example program by SeeedStudio, the serial monitor returns "Can Bus Shield Init ok!"

// demo: CAN-BUS Shield, receive data with check mode
// send data coming to fast, such as less than 10ms, you can use this way
// loovee, 2014-6-13

#include &lt;SPI.h&gt;
#include "mcp_can.h"

// the cs pin of the version after v1.1 is default to D9
// v0.9b and v1.0 is default D10
const int SPI_CS_PIN = 9;

MCP_CAN CAN(SPI_CS_PIN); // Set CS pin

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
START_INIT:
  if(CAN_OK == CAN.begin(CAN_500KBPS)) {
  // init can bus : baudrate = 500k
    Serial.println("CAN BUS Shield init ok!");
  } else {
    Serial.println("CAN BUS Shield init fail");
    Serial.println("Init CAN BUS Shield again");
    delay(100);
    goto START_INIT;
  }
}

void loop(){
  unsigned char len = 0;
  unsigned char buf[8];
  if(CAN_MSGAVAIL == CAN.checkReceive()) {
    // check if data coming
    CAN.readMsgBuf(&amp;len, buf);
    // read data,  len: data length, buf: data buf
    unsigned char canId = CAN.getCanId();
    Serial.println("-----------------------------");
    Serial.println("get data from ID: ");
    Serial.println(canId);
    for(int i = 0; i&lt;len; i++) {
      // print the data
      Serial.print(buf[i]);
      Serial.print("\t");
    }
    Serial.println();
  }
}


So I get the initialize statement returned but I'm not receiving any data. It seems like the if(CAN_MSGAVAIL == CAN.checkReceive()) statement isn't executed. I found my vehicle's Can high and Can low wires and inserted them into my Can Bus Shield. So I'm not sure if it's a code problem or if the wires aren't transmitting the data to the shield. Any help would be great.
It may be a dumb question, but are you sure your car CAN bus is 500kbps?
Have a look at this:

Maybe try different speeds? 100kbps maybe?

Also, look at the schematics of your shield? Is the bus termination resistor soldered on the board?
