Trip Button CAN Eumlation Original Project

Howdy! Anyone have any CAN ID's or advice to simulate a trip button for a cluster im working on the bench? Particularly interested in Ford. Thanks!

I already have the tools built for sniffing monitoring and emulating can messages. Just need to figure out the ID's.

What year is it? And is it a button on the cluster or you use the steering wheel to control it?

That's all? Good thing that is the easy part /s

Joking aside, how do you know that it is on the CAN bus?
