PTF & MHD Ethanol Content Analyzer Cross Compatibility?

Since these kits both use the same GM ethanol content sensor and operate with the canbus, which is a standardized language, are they cross compatible? I'm under the assumption that as long as the broadcast IDs are the same they should work-right?

I am was thinking of flashing back to stock (remove MHD) then try the BM3 OTS FlexFuel map to see if the logging is picking up E content. If it is-cool!

Curious if anyone else has attempted this.

Pretty sure it does. Both put the E% value on the CANBUS for the tuning platform to read.

It might but I couldn't get it to work. Can't find it in logging channels or anything. Was worth a shot.
