A method for synchronizing devices in a vehicle may make use of the Controller Area Network (CAN) communication bus. A bus interface of each of two or more devices coupled to the bus may be configured to accept a same message broadcast via the communication bus, in which the message has a specific message identification (ID) header. A message may be received from the communication bus that has the specific message ID simultaneously by each of the two or more devices. Operation of the two or more devices may be synchronized by triggering a task on each of the two or more devices in response to receiving the message having the specific message ID.
