I find it quite bewildering :blink: :blink:
Mostly from years of repairing and reverse engineering Suzuki ECUs, I have worked on ECUs from all around the world. I also have a third party agreement with Suzuki that gives me access to all the FSMs and a lot of extra data for the Euro models.
I have all the Suzuki tools as well, the Tech1, Tech2 and SDT.

I'm a qualified engineer,
Me too - I used to design ECUs for a large OEM supplier. I haven't ever done one for Suzuki but I worked with the guys that did the ECU for the Jimny diesels.
Long may your expertise continue to enlighten the rest of us lesser mortals :whistle:
And +1 for that. I appreciate your help. I was also an engineer working vehicle design, albeit military vehicles. As a mechanical engineer I always preferred designing the box that all of the electronics would call home. We had to interface with the group that handled the CANBus but when I would start digging too deeply into it, my nose would start to bleed.
Looking through the auto trans section of the FSM much more thoroughly, it appears that on the non-VVT vehicles, only the Suzuki scan tool will read the TCM codes. My reader is already on the way, so I will test it but I will likely end up connecting a temp sensor and gauge the old fashioned way.
Thanks for the help
I started out with nothing & still have most of it left
