Also, the UG has Max and Min alarms that can be set for each gauge. So say if you have the engine temp max gauge at 205*F like me, and it hits that threshold, it will make an alarm.
Looks like everyone that's getting normal coolant temp numbers in the thread has the 4.0 |
my UG shows about 188 degrees or so. so 205 sounds about right for a high. thats on a 4.0 as is dixies truck. 2.3 may well be different.

I would be interested from 2.3L UG users and how they have set the temp alarm. I've set mine at 275F for the interim. The UG manual says the Engine Coolant Temperature gauge is "Derived directly from the engine coolant temperature sensor or a cylinder head temperature sensor. Diesels may report engine oil temperature instead"

in case you canadian guys are looking for metric as an option. they now offer it. ultraguage EM. if you dont wanna buy a new one you can just send in your old unit and they can do the upgrade.

Has anyone mentioned the torque app for android yet (or any others)? cheaper and has more features.. heads up display (very cool), diagnostic Codes/w reset. only downside is that you have to use your phone and a cheap obd blutooth adapter. I might get some pics up tomorrow. if anyone is interested.

i just got mine yesterday. These little things are awesome. Still playing with it though.

Does every gauge have to be calibrated ?

Awwww dang!! Curse R/F, adding this to my To-Do list. Haha! :smile:
I was trying to find a manual for this, anyone know if it is a diagnostic scanner as well? |
It will read trouble codes. The manual is available on their site
