Vent Boost Gauge (Digital Led Bars & numerics)

Yea. That's been discussed in this thread. Just bug with a slightly annoying temporary effect. It usually happens on the cooler mornings of warmer days with the heat on. Makes me think it might be humidity related because it doesn't happen on cold dry winter days with the heat on.

Boost, Oil Pressure and Wideband O2 sounds nice. Time to start putting away some coin.

Installed mine this morning, bought from another member here, this unit is slick.

As much as I'd love to read through 91 pages of posts... Wait no I wouldn't. Who has gotten boost and afr on these things? I have a couple questions

you will have a pm shortly, sir.

I'm running both, with a PLX wideband setup.

 

I am also running boost and plx v3 Afr. Let me know if bmb doesn't fix you up

thanks, BMB straightened things out. curious, did you buy the datalogging cable from PLX or DIY?

yep, I did. thanks. i'm just curious what others have done as I don't necessarily have the time or resources to DIY it.

I got it from PLX. however, a simple Google search of the part number lists it at several other locations, mostly over seas, for considerably less...

 

a side note:

 

When I have both the VBG and laptop plugged in (via a y splitter) and the laptop battery dies, the VBG won't connect to the PLX SM AFR until I unplug the data logging cable from the splitter.

My last DIY cable went out, mainly due to a parent not understanding how auxiliary music cables work.

As I mentioned to BMB in a past PM, I purchased one of these, http://www.ebay.com/itm/310742466145, and recently soldered a 3.5mm headphone jack on the end, then downloaded and installed the drivers to my laptop. The cable works perfectly, with zero need for supplies other than the 3.5mm headphone jack.

If you don't mind waiting for a month, you can get it cheaper from China/Hong Kong. I prefer to buy from US sellers to get it sooner.

 

As long as you hook up the VCC and Rx to the right terminals, nothing can really go wrong.

I have mine with a LC-1 works great

having some install troubles... plugged the flex cable into the gauge (black side up) and secured it. connected add-a-fuse to power wire. connected grounding wire to screw on circuit box. plugged power into sending unit. the gauge does nothing when i turn the car on. i tried a larger fuse just for shits and giggles and still nothing. tried re-crimping all connectors, nothing. double checked flex cable, nothing. any thoughts?

Do you have both fuses in the add a fuse?

Any idea when these will be available again?

both fuses did the trick. knew it was something simple i was missing. should it be 7.5 amp fuses in both?

FYI, looks like there is one in stock on the website right now...

I was digging around in the fuse panel area the other day and found the previous owner had installed a add-a-fuse for a V1 radar. Gonna use it for the dimming function on my VBG

Any idea when these will be available again?

 

Soon i hope

lossol hasn't indicated the dual input firmware to exist yet, as far as I know.

Is anyone getting some aesthetic markings on theirs? Mines kind of spotting in areas on the display face.

Does it look like it's kind of de-laminating from itself? If so, yes. There's some discussion of it earlier on in this thread. I was actually supposed to get a photo of it for him, but I could never actually capture it in a photo and forgot about it.
