Sorry if this has already been asked, but I just want to be sure etc.

If i get a Scangauge, is this the one I need http://cgi.ebay.co.u...377ec67fe699054

Is it as simple as plugging it in to the plug socket that's by the passenger footwell ?

I want it to be able to switch the cooling fan on & off manually.
Is it just a case of entering the following codes in, and that's it ?

C433F130130700

Accept that and go to Memory 2, put this code in

C433F1301307FF

fan on = Memory 1
fan off = Memory 2

Please let me know, so I know what to order, and what to do when it arrives ?

Yep, Just go through the menu until you see CMDS, enter, than put them in the memory. Couldn't be simpler.

[Harry0075]

yep, looks exactly the same as my scangauge...i have Memory 0 = fan ON...and then memory 1 = fan OFF. give us a shout if you get stuck, its pretty simple though.

Or you could buy it from www.ukobd.com there is also a discount code as well for them giving10% off I think it was

[redvts]

Just put these codes in my sg. Any other useful codes worth putting in?

[techieboy]

Yours is a turbo, isn't it? Didn't think those codes worked for the turbo. Good news if it does. I'm sure there is an equivalent fan switching code for the turbo's ecu but not sure anyone has discovered it yet. Maybe Courtenay or Klasen will know what the hex string is.

[tommobot]

Wow. Didn't know you could do this. I shall give it a go later..

[2.2_na]

Thanks guys for the advice (and reassuring).

I have just ordered one.

I'll post the results on here when it arrives

ur right! just tried it, didn't work damn it

[2.2_na]

seems a rather expensive mod if you JUST want to turn the fan on and off

No, not just that. With all the other info etc that it gives, I think it's a rather good deal.

Plus it's easy to install - which suits me !

[The Batman]

dont think the scangauge works with the itbs pre historic ecu

[DarrylB]

I have mine set up exactly like that! Mem 1 turns the fan on, Mem 2 turns it off. I have also added the X-gauges of BHP and AF Ratio just because I can, just a bit of fun.

Darryl, Any chance I can have a look at your scangauge and you show me how it works?. Sounds interesting. Either you can come to me or I to you. Trevor.

Eh? Whats this now?

Trevor.

Sure can, although it's pretty easy to program it once you know what codes to put in. I'll dig em out, Where are you based? EDIT: Just seen yours is a turbo, will see if I can find out if the same codes work

You can add extra gauges on your scangauge - as long as your make of car can read the settings of course. These extra gauges are called X-gauges. once you know the codes for your car it's just a case of bashing them in. The x-gauges can then be cycled through on the main gauge screen along with the standard ones. I believe you can also program fuel trim percentages or similar?

Darryl, Batchworth Heath near Harefield/Rickmansworth. I di wonder if the Scan gauge AFR worked on the turbo. I see there is also a very similar item called a Turbogauge Ebay item 150440345523 anybody any experience/thoughts? Trevor.
