It displays everything your ECM monitors. Trans temps, engine coolant temps, oil temp, rpm ect. Go to their website, they have a full list of things it displays for every vehicle.

Thanks for your time guys. I was hoping that I could get a factory display to work by just pluggin something in. But you can't have it all.
