SGII issue
I have a 06 Civic LX AT
I recently unplugged my SGII to see about positioning it different when driving(I changed from the rear plug to the side plug)..When I reconnected it the SGII went through it's normal connecting bit and then just to double check things I went through and looked at all the engine/fuel/tank size settings..All of those were stored just as before..
I'm sure many of you have seen this in other vehicles, but it's a first for me with this vehicle. When you let off the gas in gear the GPH reading goes to 0.00 and the MPG goes to 9999. I know the ECU turns off power to the injectors and the motor is turning over because of the tires turning the transmission.
My problem:
The SGII no longer shows 0.00GPH and 9999mpg when I let off the gas now. I had not altered any other settings in the SGII prior to unplugging it and now it won't show that reading?
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
Lucas

Re: SGII issue
Perhaps you should reset it to factory settings and then re-configure the engine and tank size settings?

Re: SGII issue
You may need to reconfigure the "cutoff" setting. I don't have my SG here with me and can't remember how to get to it at the moment. If you find the cutoff setting, think of the 2 digit number as gallons/hour with a decimal point in front. Set it for just below the idle GPH and it should be fine.

Re: SGII issue
The factory setting is "24" Your TPS (throttle postion) value at idle should be lower than 24 for it to work.

Re: SGII issue
Thanks guys for all the input.
I will try the default settings first and then try these other setting options and see which one(s) work best.

Re: SGII issue
So I reset the SGII to the default settings and everything is back to normal.
When coasting- foot off the gas and transmission(AT) in D the SGII again reads 9999mpg and 0.00gph.
Thanks again for all of the suggestions.
