Question on Tech II programming
Does anyone know if I can use the Tech II to program the DIC to display trans temp all the time instead of oil temp?
Thanks!

If it is important, I can check this out on Monday; however, I ask why, since if you set the DIC to display trans temp, it will display trans temp until you switch to another mode.

I am asking for one of the other members who races his Z06 on the road courses. He wants to know trans temp instead of oil and since I have the Tech II he asked me. But since I didn't have a clue, I came to the Corvette encyclopedia for my answer. :cheers:
If you could check and let me know I would appreciate it.
THANKS!

Doesn't the ZO6 have the same DIC display as the Coupe? If it doesn't, then there is a different program, and I can look, but I can't actually test it since I don't have a Tech II.

I don't think so, I have never seen this on our Tech II, I will double check tomorrow though. There is a section on the Tech II where you can go look at the guage cluster info, but I don't recall being able to switch to trans temp.

No,
I've been through this a million times.....it can't. Only workaround I found was to install electrical harness inline with the tran temp sensor with a resistor when I want to display the trans temp I open the drivers door and reach under the car and switch the switch on which gets a trans overtemp to light on the DIC and then switch it off which gets the current temperature displayed. You have to do this every time you startup the car. Its a work-around but it does work well.
