I was just wondering if anyone knows how to make a home made shift light. i want to make my own out of like some leds does anyone have any idea about how i could go about this. any help would be great thanks.

 

Yep, program a microcontroller to read the engine speed signal from the ECU and then to turn a light on when you need it

 

were can i get one of those and how much are they.

 

Well, it is an integrated circuit you can get from an electronics supplier. So you would need it, the clock/oscillator parts, a programmer, the knowledge of assembly language, the pcb board and needed interfaces, etc. In other words, you should just go buy one if you are not an electronics engineer.

I actually have a project that has been on hold for some time now around designing that interface to control some other stuff, but like I said, it is on hold and not finished due to me not having time.

 

so best bet is just to buy one. sounds good to me.
