Gregg;  Can you share the X-Code number you added ?  Better results than I am getting. Mine Only shows a "Suggested Gear" in the X group, and it stays at "Neutral, and never changes when in motion.

Have a long trip tomorrow for work, would like to try and put that "Gear" code in, and see what happens.

To monitor what gear you are in for towing would be most helpful.

 

Thanks.

I will be buying the scan gauge 3 Monday, as the gear indicator does work, at least on my scan gauge 2. Torque converter slip works also, but I do not have it understood yet. I was looking for lock up

Proof of concept.   Man this thing climbs through the gears quickly.

I put the codes into my SG3 and called the display "Gear"  When I started the truck it showed "1" no matter if it was in D,R or Manual select. Its blocked inside the barn right now all clean and warm while it rains and sleets outside. Not willing to waste 2 hrs of cleaning to test it our right now. Maybe if we get a nice day this week. I will post the results. Thanks for the help. 

64BAwagon,  When you have time, could you share the X-Code #'s you put in the SG-III ?  Long trip tomorrow see if it works.

Happy holidays all !

Just looked back into the posts by Gregg , to last Sat., and saw the X-Code #'s, he put in his SG-II that show "GER", is working, and 64BAwagon says works so far in his SG-III. Will put those in my SG-III today, and see what I get.

 

Thanks All !!

Where in your sg did you load that up? I will see if I can add the code and get gear but maybe it’s only for the 10spd. Can’t hurt to try

I'll have to check out SG3.  My SG2 has been great, but one time it had issues, I contacted SG and they said send it in. I did and they fixed it and sent it back, no charge.  This is after owning it for 7yrs. Great company!  I use it on my Cruze diesel to keep track of regens and transmission temps.

Starting on page 31 in the SG-III manual, shows how to Add more displays to the X-Gauge list. 4 lines of code to type in, then assign a name for it, in an empty slot, someone did "GER" for his SG-II, can do "GEAR" for the SG-III. Going to do this in mine today.

On the https://www.scangauge.com/support/x-gauge-commands/, says can see the codes to type in.

No dice for the gear x gauge with the 6spd. Just displaying 0 at all times. Oh well. I put total misfire count in it’s place and removed fuel volume which seems useless and put in trans output speed.

I am still fine tuning mine. I added a couple of warnings for the coolant temp and oil temp. I still havent driven it though, it snowed this AM and the roads are still sloppy and I just cant bring myself to drive it and get it dirty just for this. First world problems of retired people.

That's weird. I have the Scan Gauge II and the 6L80E and my X gauge gear indicator works fine.

Is it that same set of numbers that were posted here? Wonder what’s going on. Pretty sure I entered it all correctly

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future.

      Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it.

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
