Access EVIC Data & Diagnostic Trouble Codes

[romli]

On an 8 hour drive yesterday I found there's a data display easter egg in the 300C Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).

There are 7 pages of additional EVIC data you can access by pressing mode (music note) and compass on the steering wheel simultaneously for about 10 seconds. Use the leftmost Up/Dn arrows to scroll through the pages.

Page 1 - CCN SW P/N
Page 2 - Speed/RPM/Coolant Temp/BattV
Page 3 - Temp_AVG/Temp_RAW/Pedal_Position
Page 4 - Compass/Compass_RAW
Page 5 - Left/Right fuel tank level info
Page 6 - last VTA trig (???)
Page 7 - Chime request info,

Enjoy

Good to know. I like playing around with the little features.

Romli, thats a neat feature, how'd you figure it out? I wonder if there's some other little secrets?

I do recommend trying this..... It was interesting watching the digital tach and speedo. But watching the pedal position was cool too. No, I didn't see if I could reach 100% .... But I wanted to... :-D

Awesome little trick. Now I can't stop driving without it on. Its incredible watching the RPMS climb to the to the exact number.

What does that gas tank data mean? I have had the pedal at 100%, it was easy

[RobertR]

Very Cool!!!

Is that Left and Right data for the gas tank? It only has one tank! I thought it was Yaw data for the Yaw sensor and ESP...Hmmm...Need to re-read my display. But, Romli, thanks for the new toy. I was starting to get bored!

I don't recall seeing this one in the manual (not that I actually read it or anything). Maybe this is something intended for the service technicians.
