So I connected my reader to the TPMS module last night.
It detected the module and could read the values being sent to it by the sensors.
One of the value it could read was the accelerometers, which matches up with what Suzuki talks about in the manual.
In the pictures with a blue jagged line curving up and down that is the road speed of the car.
The other four lines are the accelerometers built into the TPMS sensors.. the pictures show these moving around across a range of values and also moving separately which you would expect. . As it was a local drive they are all over the place , so I don't think it proves things either way but it shows they are reading more than an on/off movement and are also reporting their readings to the TPMS module. I guess I need to get more scientific and record the car going in circles. I probably need to compare the readings with the abs sensor pulses.
