Default Log files in the LS1 computer?

Hey guys I'm curious if there's a way to tell the date when someone last edited my computer?

Are there log files stored on the onboard computer?

Do the paramaters have last modified dates?

Thanks!

There aren't any datestamps as far as I know....


However I know that HPT and EFI both have options for tracking changes (but you need the .tun or .hpt file .. it's not stored in the PCM)

When was the last time you programmed the time/date on your pcm?

if never, there is a good change it can't be told

nope unless there's a hidden timestamp somewhere (the PCM doesn't track calendar days.. doesn't know what day it is now)

Think about it as GM would... they didn't expect (or want) anyone to modify their PCMs.... so to them.... the timestamp would be a workorder... and only changes a GM tech would do is to flash the latest OS into a PCM

no way I have ever found on any late model computer, the one tell tale that it was edited will be a P1000 code, until all of the drive cycles are complete to complete the tests.
