Default Re: I plugged my scan gauge in for the first time

The Scan Gauge reads around 140mpg when doing the Samba, not the 9999mpg that it reads when the valves are closed. Granted, 140 isn't bad, but all this time I thought it was 0gpm...
Have you tried putting the SG on GPH during the Samba?

I really like having the SG in the HCH. I like knowing the water temp and air temp. My favorite is Throttle Position (TPS) while I'm training my foot on the pedal.

I had it in the Accord before I got the HCH and used it to 'drive it like a hybrid' as much as possible. The MPG on the SG seems low, especially compared to the iFCD. I guess I need to double-check the settings I changed when I moved it from car to car.

I especially like the fact that I can change the background color on the SG to blue to match the HCH dash at night!

The only thing that bothers me about the SG in the HCH is when I auto stop at a stoplight, the SG will turn off and not come back on when I go again. Is there any way to change the auto-off on the SG?
