ScanGauge LandCruiser FAQ
Why is a ScanGauge essential for towing with a LandCruiser?
When hauling heavy loads with a 200 Series or 300 Series, monitoring Automatic Transmission Temperatures is critical. The ScanGauge II allows you to see real-time temp data that factory gauges often hide, helping you prevent overheating and long-term transmission damage during steep climbs or hot conditions.
Can the ScanGauge II clear "Check Engine" light codes?
Yes, one of the most powerful features of the ScanGauge II is its ability to read and clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). If a "Check Engine" light appears while you are on the tracks, you can instantly identify the fault and clear the code, potentially saving you an expensive trip to the dealership.
What is X-Gauge technology and how does it help Toyota owners?
X-Gauge technology allows you to custom-program additional gauges specific to your vehicle. For Prado 150 and N80 Hilux owners, this is commonly used to monitor DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) soot levels and exhaust gas temperatures, providing deeper insight into your engine's health.
How difficult is the installation of a ScanGauge?
The ScanGauge II is a true plug-and-play device. It connects directly to your vehicle's OBDII port, which is typically located under the dashboard. There is no complex wiring, cutting, or professional tools required, and it can be moved between vehicles in seconds.
Does the ScanGauge monitor fuel economy in real-time?
Absolutely. The ScanGauge provides highly accurate, real-time fuel consumption data. By monitoring your "litres per 100km" or "litres per hour," you can adjust your driving style in your 70 Series or 80 Series to maximize range during long-distance outback touring.
