Welcome to the new Scan Gauge I and II HW and Support forum.

[xcel]

Hi All:

___Given so many including those with brilliantly designed FCD's (Insight and HCH'er's) actually need a Scan Gauge for their daily tracking of not only fuel consumption but other even more interesting engine parameters, I thought it would be a great time to start a Scan Gauge HW and Support forum.

___Feel free to ask whatever question(s) you may have as well as add whatever info you have discovered while using the Scan Gauge I and/or II. I hope the CleanMPG community finds this forum extremely helpful and useful ...

___Good Luck

Hi All:

___I should have added that there are some very user friendly and very advanced enhancements still yet to come for Scan Gauge II owners/users in the not to distant future.

___As a prequel to an upcoming review, when you order your Scan Gauge II, it will arrive in a well packed and protected box and include the Scan Gauge II itself, a touch over 6’ of cabling and OBD-II connector, a 25 page Manual and Quick Start Guide, as well as some adhesive strips to secure your Scan Gauge to a location of your choosing. Within the 6’ of the OBD-Connector in your particular automobile anyway


Scan Gauge II - The ball point pen and quarter were included to add perspective.

___Good Luck

I guess I'll be the first to ask a question. I purchased a Scanguage 2 a month or two ago and I have two different plugs on mine. I have the plug that the cable plugs into in the back and another that looks just like it on the right end. the only difference is that the one on the right is a different color; white I believe. The cable even fits into the other hole. What is it for? I didn't find any information on what it's for in the manual.

My SG may end up back in the Ranger.

Hi Larry:

___It is for the future data logging feature which is setup for a late August release. Believe me, you are going to start using that little feature more and more as time goes on with what Ron has planned

___Psy, you have a SG-I right now IIRC. If that goes into the Ranger and your Civic gets the SG-II, you are going to love the new styling. Heads and shoulders above the first release although both have the same functionality at the moment. Don’t worry about the full functionality of SG-II just yet as there is a lot planned for the near and distant future …

___She sure is a pretty in any case

___Good Luck

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has any comments on the relative merits of the scangauge2 vs the supermid m1.

I think the scanugauge2 has more features but is obdII based wheras the supermid taps into the ecu.

I don't have either so I'm not 100% the information is correct. But thats what I believe I heard

[diamondlarry]

As far as I know, the superMID will only read-out in metric. That's great for the northern-most members but confusing for us yankee's. I do like the fact that the superMID can tell you how much of the trip that the ICE was off.

[krousdb]

The northern-most members prefer L/100km. The SuperMID reads in km/L, which is preferred in Japan. A MPG version is in the works for early 2007.

i like how the supermid measures fuel with more than one decimal places!
