One question, Alan. Do you have two BST values in your SGII and are you sure you're reading the one you plugged in, or did you have to change the existing?

thats probably it.
when you add the new BST value it does not get rid of the other one.
just scroll through until you see BST again and see if that helps.

Well.......I don't know if the newer SGII's have a default from new value added as BST for boost or if it has to be programmed in as an "X" gauge. Mine didn't come that way. I had to program it and I don't watch it anyway because I have an analog gauge, so I had to ask.

I actually do have two BST's on my scangauge now, one is the one that I put in and the other was there...I guess? but when I bring up that one it just shows BST without the values????like the PCM doesn't see it. But when I try to edit it it takes me to the one I entered myself,,,,other wise I would delete the one that was already there.

One of the BST's (the one that was already there) doesn't show any values it's blank, the other the one, the one that I entered , shows the values but when I try and edit (delete) the other one it takes me to the one I entered.

the factory one should show something, but it is not as accurate as the one you enter yourself with the info above.

I suppose I could edit the one that will let me and change the name to be sure the one I'm seeing is the one I entered.
