Customising of dash wording
« on: January 08, 2015, 12:04:05 pm »
When you turn the TCS off (not the ESP as it can't be disabled  :confused: :confused: :confused:) it says "TCS off" in the MFD

I was wondering if you could change this to display a different wording.

I was watching MCM and now want it to say "More skids" when I turn off the TCS and "less skids" when It's turned back on.

Anyone know?

Perhaps @Eddie-NL  or some of the other tacho gurus out there.

It would be nice to do more than that, like change the welcome messages or fuel warnings too? Completely customise the displays.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

i think one would need to find out what each value in the eeprom represents. I think the people who make the clocks would only know that.
