I thought I read somewhere that the 4th stalk conversion jailbreaks the OBC and allows the driver more information, such as outside air temp.
This has me confused as my car already tells me the outside air temp on the gauge cluster.
Did I just misread the article that I can't find now?

I have the ability, through Woody, to get a 4 stalk with a wiring harness.
Might the 4 stalk control unit behoove me?
no you understood the article just right. it just mean that the OBC is might be already activated on your car. i think it was like that on the early cars.
ny 99 showed the temp my 01 did not.
you still need the stalk to browse between, speed limit, average fuel consumption, average speed and miles to gas station.
