Cool, I tagged him in this post, so if he's interested, I'd be happy to help. I operate an IT company and could easily assist with this if they would like.
hopefully this week time will permit to compare the 24 to 20 sheets against the 25 data
i am going to drop a life line to Jessie as well

I read both and there are some changes where items are, really need 25 as built files to go further
I am hoping Nightshade gets his 25 soon to start up comparing apples and oranges

Yes, but an ST is preferred since that's what we primarily see here.
You can take an as built files
Go line by line comparing settings to what is listed on the 25 spreadsheet.
It's not a quick event, ...well at least for my old eyes

I understand it all. Just not sure what you were going to do. I can send you my 25 ST AB if it helps.

they moved a good bit of DUTIES to other modules, IMO to consolidate more functions controlled by fewer modules,
maybe it helps or will solve some of the module communication errors in other model years.
actually you send them to me or nightshade via PM. he is also involved to sort through the new stuff

Here are 2 programs that you can use to compare.

Winmerge: WinMerge - You will see the difference… requires rename file to xml (just rename and add .xml - Very clean program.
Asbuilt Explorer: CompulsiveCode - AsBuilt Explorer Just load ab files - just not as neat as Winmerge but was created for ab files and its free.

These make comparing those files a piece of cake. Let me know if its ok. Cheers....(PS: Changed to no honk today. Want to get rid of start/stop but mod doesn't do anything.)

Boy, I would love to change the default ambient lighting color!

I'm realizing now, that the color you select in the settings is only displayed while driving. Once you shut it off and exit the vehicle, it switches back to blue. Pretty annoying.

In the restraint control module system has anyone been able to figure out what disables Second Row Passenger Middle Seatbelt Sensor Present (SRPMSSP) ?
I am removing the 2nd row seats and would like to completely remove the seatbelts instead of leaving them in the vehicle.

It may be something new on the 2025's.

I set mine to red and it stays red whenever I'm driving. But when you shut it off, as soon as you open the driver's door, everything goes abruptly back to blue.
