Which flavor or Durametric do you have? Do you have the professional version?
I ask because I just the following from their web site.
***************************************
2.The Coding and Command Console features:
Beginning with Durametric version 6, Durametric supports the Coding and Command Console features. These features are included with the Professional kits only.
The Coding feature provides for the ability to enable or disable predefined features in the car such as airbags, daytime running lights, cruise control, and the rear spoiler where applicable.
The Command Console feature is a means of communicating with the control units using very low-level communications. This feature is very seldom used.

Also, did you have the chance to see if the outside temperature displayed when you turned on the OBC using Durametric before installing the switches? I've read that if you don't have the switches, the outside temperature is all you get. Is that true?

I have the enthusiast version, but on MY01 & later the switches need to be installed even to see the temp readout. I turned mine on & discovered this, when I installed the switches about a month later it worked perfectly.
