scangauge II issues

krnnerdboy · 02-21-2008, 04:41 PM

hey guys,
just hooked up my new scangauge to my 07 titan and it works but....

~my headlights flicker on and off like an alarm
~my turn signal has a mind of its own
~my engine idle is higher
~and worst of all my transmission shifts late and hard

i know it's the gauge b/c it instantaneously gets better once i unplug it.
also for you guys with bigger tires how do you compensate on the gauge?

thanks in advance
roy

Your Scangauge is operating on your CAN line in your OBDII port. Mine did the same thing......my tranny went nucking futs!!! Call Scangauge and tell them you need a NON-can OBDII cord. It'll be free.

LOL.....the Canada line eh? Nope your CAN line is a data line that your ECU, TCU and other things communicate on. When your gauge is plugged in it screws with the data communication. The SAE guys changed the port #'s on vehicles without giving warning and unfortunately yours and mine were one of the trucks that it happened to.
