I was looking into a possible upgrade on my 2011 JK Sport S to the premium EVIC from maybe a '14 or '15 (if i am able to find if they are compatible with the 2011 having a different engine) and I know one of the newer functions for those EVIC's is the ability to view the transmission temperature. I looked in the 2011 manual and they have it listed with an engine code that would show if it gets too hot, however it shows the *if equipped star next to it, so how could I figure out if my JK has one of not? Otherwise, is it hard to add for the factory sensor and into the harness to be reported on the Premium EVIC? Thanks!

I had a 2008 sport and now have a 2014 Rubicon.

I mounted an aeroforce gauge to both of them via the obdII port. Both of them have/had a trans temp gauge.

Awesome! That's what I was thinking but wasn't 100% sure because the manual said *if equipped! Thanks for the info!

I think the manual means "If equipped" with an automatic transmission.

Ah! You know what, I think you are right there! Because I read another post with someone who swapped an instrument cluster from an automatic to a manual on a 2014 JK and the trans temp didn't work because the manual trans doesn't have it! I think you nailed that answer! Thanks!
