Take a good read of the "electronics / sensor" section of the maintainance manual... This should give you and idea of how the systems are completely integrated...
All good points. The local mechanic I am working with can do the adaption which is basically associating the ECU with all the things you mention above. Before he can do this the ECU must be unlocked or cloned with the Crossfire Imobilization data which includes VIN, dash and key data. This cloning is what I am having trouble with. You mention this to some and thay react like they have fallen into an FBI sting. Even though I want to do this for honest reasons, car theives all also interested in this capability. I did find the following link that even has a free down load. What do you think of this:
