I have steering wheel buttons for cruise control on a 2004 Jeep Wrangler. I have swapped in a Chevrolet Gen 3 engine. The Jeep's cruise buttons have a constant 5v running through them. If you push any of the 5 momentary switches the voltage drops accordingly. Is there a way to determine the amount of voltage drop and convert that into a separate 12v signal for each?
