Abstract
A system for relocating a vehicle sensor comprises an aftermarket breakout device in electrical communication with one or more factory vehicle sensors, one or more vehicle electronic control modules, and/or one or more relocated vehicle sensors. The aftermarket breakout device monitors vehicle operating parameters, conditions, and other factory and/or relocated signal readings and corresponding electrical communications. The aftermarket breakout device modifies electrical communications going between one or more factory vehicle sensors and one or more vehicle control modules, wherein the modified electrical communications are received instead of the originally transmitted ones. The modified electrical communications may contain altered vehicle operating parameters, conditions, or sensor readings based on other factory and/or relocated signal readings.
