Thanks for the write-up, rebel. That's pretty nasty how it bricks the sensor. It does sound doable, but I haven't done any OBC coding nor have the right hardware. I have been meaning to get an old laptop with an RS232 port so I can give it a go, but an ELM bluetooth interface and a free app is as far as I've gone so far.

I ordered the unit Dave suggested, because I need to get it sorted this week before NCT.
