Who can argue with that logic

I set my DIC 'greeting' for fob #2 to read "35 MPH LIMIT ENGAGED" since that fob is reserved for others who might have a reason to be in the car. I figured it might deter an unwanted joy ride if the guys at mt local tire shop got bored and decided to give the car an unneeded test drive.

A few months ago, after a long afternoon of experimenting with the lighting systems (while trying to figure out the best/easiest way to get all 6 of the lights to come on at once) I was a bit concerned about how low my battery was. The car started right up, but I completely forgot that I had fob #2 in my pocket. Since it had been quite a while since I even looked at that fob I was more than a little concerned when my 35 MPH LIMIT ENGAGED message showed up.

Talk about a sinking feeling in your stomach, WOW! While the battery charged up a bit I spent 10 minutes or so trying to figure out how I fried the PCM, then reluctantly went for a drive to see how 'limited' the car was. I didn't even make it around the block before I realized the message that had me so freaked out was the one that I put in there

I'm now considering changing the fob #2 message to LOJACK ACTIVE
