Hi all. I was looking at this thread where the poster removed the entire OnStar system from his Camera: http://www.cadillacforums.com/forum...5-photo-essay-removal-all-star-equipment.html
I was thinking that it would be interesting to replace the OnStar computer with something else interesting. Hook the microphone up to a computer and mount a screen in the center console, write a program to do some voice command type things. Maybe have it display some OBDII diagnostic info, calculate range, whatever. I would like to mount the computer (small fanless type) in the back where the OnStar equipment is and utilize the connectors there to do whatever stuff I would be doing. So does anyone have like a pinout diagram for the OnStar system connectors? And also any important supporting information about any signaling protocols used, etc.
Also, does anyone have any technical information about the screen found in the Omega B's instrument cluster? I'm not really interested in using the GPS system... I doubt up-to-date US maps are available for it. I just want to display my own information. So anything about how to interface with that screen would be great, thanks.
