    Hi All,

    Just hooked up my SGII to my new Prius, and it won't stay on. It seems that every time the ICE turns off and the RPM's go to zero, it thinks I'm parking and it powers down after the 10 seconds or so. I know this is what it's doing because if the ICE stays on, the SGII stays on just like it used to in my RAV4. Is there a setting for a hybrid on the SGII ?

    How do I resolve this ?

    Thanks

    REV

    You need to change the setting for hybrid.

    From the main screen - MORE>SETUP>FUEL>TYPE - change to hybrid

    I just reset the parameters, but didn't realize there was a hybrid selection.

    Here is another thread that give information on ScanGauge Xgauges which can monitor things such as: inverter coolant, inverter temperatures, MG temperatures, HV battery Amps, and much more. Xgauge feature can also be used to set the backup beeper to 1 beep vice continuous and turn off the extra Toyota seat belt beeps leaving only the required 6 seconds.
