Undocumented DIC Features
I have seen various threads around refering to using what I find are undocumented features of the DIC to display things like trouble codes.
Does anyone know of a good site that has information on the button sequences and what they do aside from what is in the owners manual?
I have an 04 Z06 if it matters.
Thanks in advance for any help you might provide.

As far as getting the Diag Codes ... there is a posting on the C5 Tech Tips Section. Here is the Link:

I dont personally know of any other "Hidden" features that may exist. The C5 Tech Tips Section has many cool posts. Here is the basic Link:

Here are two resources that may help you. The first one is accessing and reading DIC codes
http://www.stengel.net/diccodes.htm
The second is used to activate features that are either dis-abled or not used on the Z
http://www.stopforce.com/RPO.html
For example, the Z doesn't have the Low Tire Pressure Sensors installed at the factory so this feature is dis-abled. I wanted the safety and security of the LTPS so I purchased the sensors, had them installed and had my Chevy dealer turn on this option. I now have the LTPS system and can monitor my tire PSI's just like all non-Z06's.
Hope this helps.
