Coding: Gage Check on Start Up??

Anybody know if its possible to make the instrument cluster do a Gage check on start up via coding?

(not sure if gage check is the appropriate terminology here...i mean make the speedometer etc go to red-line and back)

I know what you mean. Gauge sweep. That is pretty cool. I would like to know this also.

Seen it done but NOT through coding, it was done through a menu you get if you hold the trip odometer button long enough, it will get you to a multiple options list, to activate the options you have to total up the last 5 or 7 digits of your VIN and enter the total, that will get you to another menu, one of the options is the gauge sweep.
