I have 3 scangauges, which are used on a:
08 Honda Civic
01 Chevy Silverado
99 Ford Contour

I have 2 problems and 1 problem deals with all 3 vehicles. They have the latest firmware.

Problem 1 (Impacts all three scangauges and vehicles): Almost every time, when I take the foot off the accelerator , the “MPG” guage under gauges will read “9999”. Only if I put my foot back on the accelerator will the gauge read normal. I’ve unplugged the cable on back and have also switched the scanguages-same problem.

Problem 2 (Impacts only the Silverado): While driving, the radio will turn itself off and reset to 1:00.

SO I’m open to fixes.

Yes, I have emailed Linear-Logic, Inc. about the problems.

No improvement in MPG. I keep on coming back to Tufoil).
