Does gear position show on Dakota Digital gauges fed from the LS ECM via the BIM module?

Here is what the documentation says. Each point links to its source; details depend on your exact computer, harness and transmission.

  • LS swap: Dakota Digital's BIM-01-2 OBD-II/CAN interface lets compatible gauges read data without extra analog sensors for water temperature, tach, or oil pressure. (LSX Magazine)
  • LS swap: The BIM-fed gauges can display engine temperatures, speed, boost, and oil pressure. (LSX Magazine)
  • LS swap: Additional available parameters include intake air temperature, transmission temperature, gear position, and boost pressure. (LSX Magazine)

Confirm against the instructions for your exact parts before wiring. More: Tach and speedometer signals in our tuning guide.
