Is their a way to get Transmission Temps from a OBD2 port

[kanz]

Guys quick question for you. I have a 97 Tahoe. Im would like to monitor my transmission temperature without installing a gauge. Is their something that can do this through the OBD2 port?

A scangauge may be able to, not sure though. A gauge is the best way to do it though.

There ought to be on a 96+ truck as they have temp sensors in the harness.

Supposedly there is a way using the Torque app for Android with extended GM PIDs. I haven't made it work personally, but haven't really tried either.

I have obd2 scanner wit the Dash command app and it will tell me the trans temperature. I have a 1999 Suburban but should be the same.

Thank you for the reply. What scanner do you have?

Its called the veepeak obd check for iphone.

The dash command app too cost I think $15 but good setup for the price.

Works for my 97 C1500 as well. Bonus: Dashcommand does Cam Retard Cmp offset. That alone is worth the cost of the adapter and app.

I was able to get transmission temps from my 95's ECU ... I'm sure you can get them on a more modern setup.
