A message ID decoding method is provided for a system comprising multiple components interlinked by a Controller Area Network bus (CAN-bus) through which messages are sent. The method includes acquiring a CAN-bus message data stream including multiple CAN-bus messages, each including a CAN ID indicating a component from which the corresponding CAN-bus message originated; storing the CAN-bus messages in a first datastore; acquiring an electricity consumption signal indicative of the consumption of the component; storing the electricity consumption signal in a second datastore; generating multiple time-stamp bins each corresponding to an interval in time; selecting the CAN ID and a portion of the electricity consumption signal being from the interval in time corresponding to the time-stamp bin; and determining a regression coefficient, R, indicating a level of relatedness between the selected CAN ID and portion, thereby correlating the CAN ID of the selected CAN-bus message with the component.
