Nate94XE4x2 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 At some point, I've seen a post and how-to on making a remote box that allows you to enter The different modes of the ECU and view fault codes via a box mounted on the dash or center console. Anyone know where I may have seen that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecialWarr Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Conversely: It is possible to remove the ECU from its location under the passenger seat and mount it in the passenger side footwell without additional wiring. There is more than enough wire and it runs from there TO the footwell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY1PATH Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Put it in the glove box if you are concerned with raising your water line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terranovation Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) I'm going to be installing a mini led volt meter into the dash, it was one of those "I bet I can fit that" moments. Lol it was only $1.50. The size is 1 in x .5 inch thickness. It's pretty tiny so it's about the same size as the digital clock. I want to put it behind the plastic window on the speedo side. There's a gap between where the gauge is where the two wires can feed thru without having to drill holes. I know black wire goes to ground and I guess red wire goes to ignition 'on'. I want it to illuminate only when the truck is on and running. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mini-LED-DC2-5-30V-Red-Volt-Voltage-Meter-Display-Digital-Voltmeter-Self-Powered-/200960460374?nav=SEARCH Edited November 17, 2015 by Terranovation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Just saw this and will probably do this in the future. Will make things nice for preforming checks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 I did this on mine. Haven't had a trouble code to run since I did it, but it's kinda fun to leave it in mode 1 and watch the oxygen sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 That is something I was thinking of. You can monitor that and its easier to check codes without having to go upside down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
