Question...

I read what you guys were saying about the Scangauge2 and bought one and am happy with the purchase. You guys were right, if you are pulling or hauling, the ScanGauge is the tool to have.

Now the question...
How does one program it to have certain pieces of information on the screen? I have tried and cannot seem to make the connection.

Thanks

What information are you looking to display? What is your MH?

have a Ford F250 tv and 28 ft 5er. No mh.

I was looking to show mph (instant), trans temp, water temp and enging load (vacuum) all on one screen. I would like to see that info when I am driving, pulling hills, etc. Especially with my 5er.

Thanks

How does it hook up? I have an older E350 coach (1990), will it display all aforementioned info (Engine temp,RPM, tranny temp, etc.)?

EDIT: Disregard, found this info on their website and answered my own question:

Works on all 1996 or newer OBDII cars, including gas, diesel, propane and hybrid vehicles

We all drive different chasis/engine combos.

Just asking folks who are very quick to pop up with a some obvious questions to at least read the very clear and short manual from cover to cover. The scangauge site is very user friendly as well.

Got sick of taking the scangauge out of one vehicle and putting into another that I brought a second and 2 extra cables...Now have a cable in all of my vehicles and don't have to take the gauge out so often...
