I got it working, I'll post some arduino sketches this weekend.
Have one that emulates and one I have been using as an E&C scanner.
Next step is PCB design. Might port the design from Atmega328/Arduino to Attiny85 or something.
Not bad, 4 days from getting the cassette deck to working emulation!

E&C Head Unit logs
So far, everything I have seen from a 97 CD UNO Chevy Camaro head unit on the E&C Bus. Protocol looks pretty easy to replicate and I think I should have no issues emulating a cassette deck.
Radio On:
1100001011111110010101
Radio Off:
1100001011111110000100
User keypress or sync or something. Happens after most user key presses:
111001101111
Cassette Deck Poll?:
1110011100000100
CD Transition:
111001101110001101
1100001011111110010101 (Confirm this?)
111001101110001101
Cold Start. 12V applied

E and C bus decoding progress
So far so good. I have the arduino reading E&C. I have observed about 5 or 6 messages. Simple stuff so far. Waiting for the cassette deck so I can progress further.
My data seems to match the link below, at least for radio on and off events.
I will document my progress once I get some ambition. I have a proof of concept and some working arduino code to show for my efforts tonight and that's more than I expected.

E&C Bus... Anybody?
New hack on an old bus.. E&C.
I'd like to make an aux adapter for all of us with in dash CD UNO head units in our 90s era GM cars. As some of you know, the UNO single CD player can't control a changer and the aux adapters emulate a changer. So no go.
I hacked an adapter out of a remote cassette deck a few years ago and now I plan on hacking the E&C protocol that controls that... Emulate the cassette deck via AVR/arduino.
Anybody out there have anything on E&C?
So far this is what I have to go on: http://pangea.stanford.edu/~schmitt/e_and_c_bus/
