Hi Bill

Sounds like John got a return unit that works, but your replacement still had the problem. I'd call Ron and report the problem again to get a new unit before the warranty runs out.

Also, I've found that if you reset the SG and the navi at fill-up, the data on the navi will change when the full gauge starts to move. After filling-up, I got bad MPG (Wife driving) for the first ten miles, but when the gauge started to move, I was getting killer mileage. The SG started and kept the average, but the data on the navi dropped some of the bad mileage and had a better average. Just letting everyone know that the tank fill plays a part on the navi as the gauge moves, but has little or no effect on the SG. Right now, I have a SG average of 43.7mpg and a navi at 45.2mpg with 63 miles on the tank. Still warm here and I hear the A/C kicking on to cool the battery after a fake shift in "L" for charging.
