what program can do this for the 06 gto?
turns the factory shift light in the dash on and allows u to program the rpm it comes on at. also lets u customize the start up display to read what u want and i was told it could change the way the dash lights up at night. i saw a guy doing it at bradenton but he didnt want to say what he was using.

That would be kinda neat if I could get the Skip shift light to light up at preset RPM's to act like a shift light. IF I COULD EVEN SEE IT> i dont know why but i can only type in upper or lower case only now???

but i guess my question is there is obviously a program that allows u to do the instrument cluster progamming. id like to get it. so things could be changed as i like. not just one time then i have to mail it out everytime i want to change it and pay the $150 everytime.

No, the shift light function in HPT will not control it, and no, there is no available aftermarket program. The person or people who have hacked the instrument cluster programming have not released any public software. I wish there were something available, because I am not about to take my instrument panel out and send it to someone for programming. Luckily, the aeroforce scangauges have a shift light function now.

I told you on the other forum: gtoshiftlight.com. There is no available software. Chris figured out how to do it and he's not sharing that info publicly. The only way to do it is to send him your cluster or have him do it in person through the OBDII port.

The key is in the BCM, not PCM. I think you can do it if you know where to look AND can rewrite the BCM. HPT has it as a drop down to adjust (in PCM), but if the BCM doesn't enable it, yer not getting anything.
That said, I had Chris do mine, as he did all the lights and needle color changes for me too, and once I got to digging inside the cluster and radio I saw the value in his service. Fry one BCM or cluster and you will wish the bill was only 125 and a Fedx slip....
BTW he only charges 10 bucks to do resets or adjustments in the future after the first hit.
He bought the equipment, hacked and figured the BCM things and he rightfully owns the process he came up with. I wish you well, and if you figure it out, start a biz and make some $$.

tried his web site it is down.
i have wanted to get in that BCM for a while now. if i can get it programed for tow-haul to work i think i can use the performance tables to give me 2 trans tunes w\diff. pressures and shift points.

Ok I can't stand the fact that people don't know how to use this amazing thing that is at the tip of our fingers called google Chris doesn't have some super secret to the shift light go to ALDLcable.com on google search spend the $60 on the cable I will post later the link to download the program that does it for you which is free by the way it allows you to change the gauge colors activate the shift light startup text and basically all of the functions to the gauge in its entirety

Seriously a Google lecture on a 7 year old post?

I still haven't seen in the forums somebody actually posting the right method to unlocking the shift light so I decided to make a username and post it up the program you're going to need is called VZclustermod you will also need the al DL cableI understand that the message boardis 7 years old but this at least will help everyone out
