That's good to know. Should've checked before posting! Interesting that this guage can't find an oil pressure reading from OBD port.

Keep an eye on your order status. I had to remind them a week after placing the order. It was shipped the same day they acknowledged my reminder.
They warn you it takes 3-5 days for Aeroforce to make the gauge for you. So, a week later, I had to e-mail Maryland Speed. Got it, though. Very nice to have the data it displays.

The info is not there. The computer only tracks if the oil pressure switch is open or closed.

THANKS!


When you disable ESP it does not show on the instrument panel. However, I did test it on and off road. It definitely disables it.
So wait a second....It doesn't show ANYTHING??????? Do I have problem with mine showing *BRAKE* and *ESP/BAS*

Ok...well then.... Now I know I've got a twofold problem then.

Switched from platform 3 to platform 2 and NOW...now I've got NO lights whatsoever-- unless I hit the consul/regular ESP button ((((And)))

And I shoulda wrote it down... But now trying to get back into the *Performance* sub menu I get a messege (Something to the effect) "MPH must be O" I'm friggin SITTING STILL IN PARK!!!!!!!!!! Once I'm at the screen with that dialogue I cant get the unit out of that mode unless I shut down the Jeep, remove key and wait for the unit to go off and then insert key and get it to re-boot.

I CAn still use the gauges.... Seems my trans is running about an average of about 175....... not bad figguring I was hauling ass in 95 temps

Undertow-- if you or anyone has ANY more info please post it here!!!! I think I'll dash off to the Aero forum and ask the dudes there too & will post back anything they give just in case anyone else runs into this scenario

maybe you switched it off in platform 3 you might have to go back to 3 and turn it on then switch to the correct platform.i disabled mine again and you do get the lights,then to turn it back on you must cycle the key and the lights go out.
