adapt the sensor to various locations. You will select “DD F” to read in Fahrenheit, or select “DD
C” to read in Celsius.
You can also read the temp with the use of a bus interface module (BIM). Dakota Digital
offers a BIM-01-X that will allow you to read the engine temp signal from an ECU if you are
installing the system in a vehicle equipped with the OBDII port or a drivetrain from a newer
vehicle, most 1996 and newer vehicles have this. You will select “BUS F” to read in Fahrenheit,
or select “BUS C” to read in Celsius.
