Editorial Review:

Product Description:
See what's going on under the hood As a general rule geeks like to have access to as much data and statistics as possible. We pretty much figure this applies to a geek's motor vehicle as well. So, to allow you to access extra information about your car we would like to introduce the ScanGauge 3-in-1 Auto Computer. This gadget is easy to install and provides a set of digital gauges, a comprehensive trip computer, and an engine trouble code scan tool. The digital gauges mode displays four different properties on the screen (for example, fuel economy, battery voltage, coolant temperature, and engine speed). The trip computer tracks your vehicle's maximum speed, average speed, driving time, driving distance, trip fuel economy and several other pieces of trip data. The engine trouble code scan tool lets you read standard engine trouble codes as well as clear the "check engine" light and other warning lamps. The ScanGauge is simple to use and install and mounts in, on or below the dash. It plugs into the diagnostic OBD-II connector found under the dash on 1996 and newer cars and light trucks. The functions are accessed via a simple on-screen menu interface. There is an automatic delayed power-down after engine shutoff and automatic power-up when engine is started. User and vehicle settings are automatically saved.

Amazon.com:
The ScanGaugeII is a 3-in-1 automotive computer that combines a multifunction trip computer, diagnostic scan tool, and up to 37 digital gauges in one small package. It connects easily to your vehicle's On-Board Diagnostic (OBDII) port and communicates directly with the vehicle's computer. Not sure if your car uses OBDII or Controller Area Network (CAN)? The unit will automatically determine which system to use and switch to it. The ScanGaugeII works on all 1996 or newer OBDII cars, including gas, diesel, propane and hybrid vehicles, as well as vehicles with the latest CAN systems. A detachable cable allows for easy transfer between multiple vehicles. Its menu-driven operation means there's no need to memorize complex sequences, and no tools are required for installation.

Expandable Add-A-Gauge Technology
The ScanGaugeII has been redesigned with expandable Add-A-Gauge (aka XGauge) technology. Add to the original 12 gauges by customizing the ScanGaugeII to monitor up to 25 more--depending on your specific vehicle's sensor design. Four gauges can be displayed simultaneously and can help determine fuel consumption rates, allowing you to adjust driving behavior and save gas. At the same time, keep an eye on coolant temperature, engine speed, and much more in real time. If there is a young driver in the house or friends borrow your car, the ScanGaugeII can record speeds of up to 158 mph and store the information for you to view later, so you will know just how fast your young driver or friend was going last night. If the unit was disconnected, you'll know: An indicator will be displayed in the trip data.

ScanGaugeII mounts easily to your dash.

Gauges include:

• Horsepower
• Fuel Consumption Rate to 1/100th per gallon/liter
• Vehicle speed (MPH)
• Fuel Economy
• Cost Per Mile/Cost Per Trip
• Manifold Pressure (not available on some vehicles)
• Battery Voltage
• Engine Load
• Coolant Temperature
• Throttle Position
• Intake Air Temperature
• Ignition Timing
• Engine Speed (RPM)
• O2 Sensor Data
• Fuel Trim
• Hybrid Battery Charge (for Toyota Prius and Ford Escape)
• And many more, depending on your vehicle's sensor design

ScanGaugeII makes diagnostics easy. View Larger

Scan Tool
The ScanGaugeII includes a diagnostic scan tool that can check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), clear the codes, and turn off the "Check Engine" light on 99% of 1996 and newer vehicles. (However, this feature may not work on some trouble codes in Dodge vehicles.) If any DTCs are found, the ScanGauge will show how many there are as well as the codes themselves. Then you can use the Internet or repair manual to find out which is the failed part is, so you can repair it yourself or know what needs to be fixed at the mechanic's shop.

Multifunction Trip Computer
Four sets of data are automatically recorded on the trip computer: Current, Today, Previous Day, and Tank Trip. The "current" trip restarts after the engine has been off for more than 3 minutes. The "today" trip restarts after the vehicle has not moved for 9 hours, and the data from "today" is moved to "previous day" when you restart the car, so you don't have to reset the computer every time you begin a trip. "Tank trip" resets when you fill up the tank. It can provide you with "to empty" data and other useful information, which can be viewed any time during the trip. The trip computer also integrates information from the Cost Per Mile gauge. Simply enter how much you paid per gallon or liter of fuel, and the ScanGauge will automatically calculate the cost of your trips as you drive. The ScanGaugeII features 12 individually stored parameters, including:

ScanGaugeII features 63 backlit colors. View Larger

• Maximum Speed
• Average Speed
• Maximum Coolant Temperature
• Maximum RPM
• Driving Time
• Driving Distance
• Fuel Used
• Fuel Cost
• Trip Fuel Economy
• Distance to Empty
• Time to Empty
• Fuel to Empty

Personalize It
A large, high-contrast LCD display makes viewing the information easy, and both the display and keys are backlit and can be set to off, low, or high. With 63 possible colors, user settings, tank trip data, and vehicle settings that are automatically saved, and up to 10 user commands that can be stored and recalled, the ScanGaugeII can be easily customized to suit your needs.




Rating: - Excellent Tool
Well worth the money to track your fuel mileage and fuel usage history.
Especially for vehicles without fuel usage meters already built in.
Also tells other useful info but not as important as the fuel mileage and the ability to check trouble codes that may be popping up on your "Check engine light"
Read the code and do a google search for that code and you can easily diagnose what problem(s) you may be having.
If your mechanically able you can purchase the part and replace ... Read More

Rating: - Provides valuable information
The device provides valuable information for the thoughtful operator. Some of it is only occasionally valuable, but when needed, facts are easy to get. On the other hand, the ScanGauge provides quite a bit of information of value from time to time - remaining range & trip data, for example.

For me, the greatest value comes from parameters that can guide the most economical operation -- I like to display current speed, MPG, fuel flow and cost-per-mile in the default setting; it trains ... Read More

Rating: - $1282 savings and counting !!!
I have owned my ScanGauge II for about 18 months and it has paid for itself in fuel savings.

I drive a 1998 Ford Expedition and have seen a 20% increase in my fuel mileage since I purchased my ScanGauge II. It has taught me a more efficient way to drive. You are able to see your actual fuel mileage in realtime and lets you see what effect passing a car, accelerating up a hill and coasting has on your fuel mileage.

I have read reviews that have been critical on this unit ... Read More

Rating: - Good, could better, but meets the need for a fair price
Product works very well, but is built a little on the cheap side. It would be nice to have something a little better than velcro to hold it in place...something that allowed angle adjustment to keep the sun from reflecting. It would also be nice to have the cable connect on the left side too. So far the device has caused me to modify certain aspects of my driving habits...this has resulted in about 4 miles per gallon increase in my MPG. I really haven't had time to play with much of the other stuff. ... Read More
