[QUOTE="mpeedy, post: 476566, member: 6439"] The seat belt is replaced with one that has a wire connected to it. Most personal vehicles have this to warn the driver that the seat belt is not on with a ding, ding, ding. The bulk head door frame is wired with a magnet sensor. A magnet is mounted the the edge of the bulkhead door. When the bulkhead door is closed the sensor will sense the magnet on the door. When opened the sensor will sense the magnet is away. This the the same way that the doors on offices or small retail stores know someone has entered the front door. Except it makes some sort of noise. The rest of the system plugs into your engine diagnostics port in the vehicle permanently . The system plugged into your package car vehicle can tell everything that the package car is doing, from rpm's, speed, gear, emissions, braking soft or hard, blinkers on and for how long, horn- if you use it properly when backing, how long you backed up for, clutch use, headlights on when driving or parked, battery charge, hazard lights on when parked, hazard lights on when driving. You get the picture. The mechanics have access to all the vehicle diagnostic reports. The vehicle reports diagnostics to the mechanics shop computer every couple of minutes. It will alert them to problems that the vehicle might have. This is good for them because they can see a potential road call problem befor it happens. They can also see what the car was doing before it broke down, possibly avoiding a tow or seeing it definatly needs a tow. [/QUOTE]
