Another good idea. Why is that harder with a 97+? Because of the different OBD computer? In any event, it should be easy enough to intercept the TCS signal and use that as desired. My microcontroller could just monitor the wire powering the TCS light to know when it's disabled. Although, rather than fully disabling the shift light when TCS is on, I would probably have it only light up for the final few hundred RPM range, so it's only present when really appropriate. For track/performance mode, it could show more of a progression (including perhaps the VTEC range through a color change or something).For this, I had planned to turn the light off when I didn't want it, but since it's fully controllable, I could tie into the instrument-cluster backlight and have the shift light drop in brightness when the backlight is on. It could even track the brightness of the backlight. Ass possibilities for the future. First order is to build a functioning system. Then I can play with it. That's why I'm building my own, because I enjoy the sorts of customization you have raised.Thansk.-jason
