Off Road Screen

Does anybody know the location of the accelerometer that feeds info to the Off Road screen? And, if so, do all models have it? I have an XL and would be interested in using FORScan to get data from it for some third-party software.

I'd imagine it's in the ECM. I'd also guess all trucks have it. Because XL's still use accelerometers for TC, ABS, and RSC. I'd imagine they just use a solid state 3D version for all of that. Not a separate unit. I'm just guessing, I have no idea.
