Introducing a new button configuration, UniRocker. Together with RockerCombo, these button configurations are used to navigate and control the CCM: Button Configurations |
| Info |
|---|
CCM can be used in conjunction with the in-app diagnostic menu to configure each Custom Code feature: Custom Code Diagnostics |
CCM replaces which feature each Cruise Control button activated (Switchable maps, burbles, antilag, etc.)
Custom Code v7.1 introduces the Custom Code Menu! The Custom Code Menu (CCM) gives you access to Custom Code features (Switchable Maps, Burbles, Antilag, etc.) through the cruise control buttons on your steering wheel. CCM was designed to extend how many Custom Code features were available at your finger tips, 4 prior to CCM, 7+ with CCM.
CCM will improve how users will access each feature, enable/disable them, or configure their settings in real-time without reflashing! CCM uses “submenu” for each feature. Start by navigating the menu to enter a submenu (feature) using the cruise control buttons and using the tachometer and engine light to get visual feedback so that you know where you are at a given time. Next, set the desired value for the selected feature (just like with older Custom Code). This article will provide details for each step. Here is a quick layout of each feature for your reference:
...
Submenus (features)
Each Custom Code feature, which is available On-The-Fly, has its own dedicated submenu. Once a submenu is accessed, users will be able to configure said feature. If the submenu for Switchable Maps is accessed, then users will be able to choose which slot should be activated. The following image can be used as a quick reference for which settings are available in each submenu:
...
Steering wheel button layout and functionality
The CCM uses two sections of the steering wheel for all functionality, A: Cruise Control Buttons and B: Turn Signal Stalk. Media Control Buttons have no Custom Code functionality, they are not used. The names or icons on your steering wheel may differ, for this article, we will reference the steering wheel from our development F-Series Gen 1 vehicle. The button position is key for it’s functionality, take note of where your buttons are located in comparison to these images.

Instrument cluster (visual feedback)
Instrument cluster components are used in CCM for visual feedback about the user’s active position within sub-menus and feature value/status. CCM uses only sections, D: Check Engine Light (CEL) and F: Tachometer (RPM Gauge). Section E: Speedometer (Speed Gauge) has no Custom Code functionality, is not used. The position or style of these components may differ, for this article, we will reference the instrument cluster from our development F-Series Gen 1 vehicle.
...
D - Check Engine Light (CEL):
Check Engine Light (CEL) is used to inform users when they are actively in the CCM, within a submenu, using Ethanol Content Display or Antilag, and when valet mode limits were exceeded. OEM functionality is also retained. |  |
E - Tachometer:
The tachometer is used to show which submenu/feature is to be entered, feature value/status, or whether an invalid selection was made. Outside of the CCM, OEM functionality is retained. |  |
F - Speedometer:
This is not used with Custom Code Menu. |  |
...
Tachometer Position Meaning
The tachometer is used to show which submenu/feature is to be entered, feature value/status, or whether an invalid selection was made. Outside of the CCM, OEM functionality is retained.
Submenu Selection:
Each thousand of RPM will be a selection for the CCM. Entering the selection will proceed into the sub-menu. 0k RPM - Exit the Custom Code Menu 1k RPM- Switchable Maps On-The-Fly 2k RPM - Burbles On-The-Fly 3k RPM - Max Cooling On-The-Fly 4k RPM - Antilag (Launch Control) 5k RPM - Ethanol Content Override 6k RPM - Exhaust Flap On-The-Fly 7k RPM - Using Valet Mode On-The-Fly |  |
Invalid Selection:
The tachometer will briefly jump to 7000 RPM to indicate that the selection made was invalid. |  |
...
Check Engine Light (CEL) Blink Meaning
The Check Engine Light (CEL) may blink for a number of reasons: when they are actively in the CCM, within a submenu, using Ethanol Content Display or Antilag, or valet mode limits were exceeded.
If the CEL remains lit for longer than the CCM timeout setting (configured in app when flashing), then it may be an ECU fault, as per it’s OEM function. Users can read DTC codes via in-app diagnostic menu to check.
There are 3 types of blinks that you may see: slow blinks, fast blinks or counted blinks.
Slow and Fast Blinks:
Slow blinks are visible to users who are in the root menu of CCM (haven’t entered a submenu yet), when using Ethanol Content Display or when valet limits have been exceeded. |  |
Fast blinks are shown only when using Antilag (Launch Control). |  |
Counted Blinks:
Counted blinks indicate which submenu is active. The CEL will blink the same number of times as the given Custom Code feature’s tachometer value (7 thousand RPM = 7 blinks). On the right, you’ll find 3 examples: 1 blink indicating you’re in the Switchable Map submenu, 3 blinks indicating the Max Cooling submenu and finally 7 blinks indicating the Valet Mode submenu.

Usage Instructions
There is a ~15 second timeout which will cancel your selection if no buttons are pressed. If the selection menu times out, settings will not be adjusted and no changes will be saved. The amount of time can be adjusted in-app before flashing.
