This morning, when I took the charger off the battery, I jumped in the car, activated the scangauge, and it read 12.6V. I had checked while it was on the charger, and it said 13.2V just as it should. I guess I'll just live with the battery being low for now. I threw it on the desulfator. We'll see if it helps at all over the weekend.
Oops. That was supposed to be "I read the thread Daox".

That behavior is very different from what i get. I see the reading drop to zero almost instantly when i shut off. Is your scanguage maby an older version of the code or something perhaps? Or perhaps the Paseo's computer handles things differntly? I don't know....
