Temperature Display doesn't change

Temperature Display doesn't change

Postby solaris » Sun Oct 08, 2006 7:06 pm

after i installed my cp-e kit, i noticed that the temperature display on my console is not updating anymore. It's stucked at 59F. I tried to reset it by disconnecting the battery, and it did. now, it's 71F and hasn't changed since . i dont want to keep disconnecting the battery just to update the temp display. please help.......... :cry:

I'll check the wiring diagram but I can't see how that would be related to the 4 wires used by the MAF Customizer.

it may not even be related to the cp-e kit. it's probably when i disconnected the battery. is there a reset function for this or something?.....

Everything should wake up fine after a 30 min. battery disconnect. I don't know of any manual inputs to the Thermometer.

Hmmmm....

No such issues with my CP-e install.... is it possible that when you had the "minor" issue with the FIRST start (and it stalled/didn't run) something was "spiked" back to the ECU or something....?

Hmmmm....

Better go with Down2TheC's thots....

OTHER than that.... what do you think about the HAMMER DOWN performance with the CP-e now that you've been driving around a little?

ISN'T THAT THE TRUTH!!!!

I used to see 28+ mpg all the time on my trip computer.... now it is hanging out around 22mpg!!!!

I'm SURE the mileage has not gone down because of the CP-e and TRD exhaust.... but because I am driving MUCH faster and pinning the throttle MUCH MORE OFTEN (i.e.: ALL THE TIME!!!!) since installing.... I just can't HELP myself!! The car just WANTS to SCREAM all the TIME!!!

I think I have been cruising between 80-90 almost constantly this past couple of weeks.... GOOD THING I have a Valentine ONE!

I better settle down now....
