Hi All
Is there any way to link into the PCM so that an external piece of equipment can cause a CEL?
I'm towing a trailer and I'd like to put a "Tire Pressure Monitoring System" TPMS, on the trailer tires. most systems have you put the monitor on the dash or stuck in the inside corner of your windshield. I'd like to bury it in the glove box and have it "throw a code" if there is a problem. You can set these things so that they "alarm" on over or under pressure or temperature, I want to just set the alarms for 5psi under and forget it, I have zero interest in looking at my tire pressures while I drive.
I think it might beep but if the CEL lamp on the dash could also come on that would be neat. Are there any "spare" circuits on the PCM I can tire into?
