    Don't have our Prius yet. Do have our SGII. Using it on Avalon. What temperatures if any does the SGII monitor for the Prius' Traction Battery and compartment. I've read a number of threads re: A/C and venting issues in the battery compartment. Is there a way to monitor the proper cooling of the compartment? Just wondered if anyone knew off-hand. :noidea:
    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Help!!!

    I have a Scangauge II and want to monitor the Battery functions like SOC, BTV etc.

    But the Xgauge funtions will not work.

    I hear from Scangauge that the communication use the ISO protocall.

    Can anyone help me to get these readings (SOC, BTV) on a 2001 prius???

    Thanks for your help...

    Just tried these codes for BTV and they also don't work in our 2006 and 2007 Prius's.

    Re: Scanguage Xgauge/CAN network research thread

    The programming manual is wrong. It's not "8" it's "1" and it's not the first byte it's the second. So for the second byte:

    0x8- = 10x
    0x4- = 100x
    0x2- = Boolean
    0x1- = Hex

    Has anyone gotten a passive bta Xgauge to work? I just updated the firmware on my SGII to 4.06 and it is slow. The update frequency (even in "fast" mode) is pretty bad.... I have a PHEV so I keep my eye on Bta all the time.

    I tried the trick above but it doesn't work. Not getting signed values....

    Who has the programing for Air-To Fuel Ratio for 2008 prius Scan guage II . Also how high does it read in lean mode.. as in a number.. I see most actual gauges run max of 20 as a read out for lean.. Would like to know if something goes much higher then this..

    Not exactly for my Prius but for the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor 2011 Odometer(Kms) dimout Issue. I am using ScanGauge 2 Ver 3.15 to mitigate the not KMS odometer data shown, this is a very common problem for ford vehicles 2003-2011. I am using the SG2 as well for other data not available like Ambient Temperature.

    Found related information posted by CarID on July 22 ,2009 : Scan Tool FEH Stuff on CleanMPG (can not post link as newbie)


    The Author explained in detail the X-coding process needed to pull the information from the Instrument Cluster IC ($720) on mode $22 PID $6182. Somewhere in the example a Division by 500 ($1F4) was not mentioned to have back the full Odometer Value.

    The answer for the coding cannot be shown as a trip because SG2 needs more then 2 bytes to show the odometer reading (4bytes of info).

    Sending the command 6182 the return is: 626182054CDF2E00. So my odometer reading is 054CDF2E = 88,923,950 and dividing by 500 ($1F4) I got 177,847 Miles ($2B6B7) Which is very close to the reading I have according to my memory on oil changes since the odometer display stopped working which is 284,555 Kms.

    I was able to get the lower reading for the Odometer using trip setting 34 ( distance for tank trip), I guess it will reset it when it will reach 9,999Kms or will overrun. Now, I need to figure it out how to extract the 177 K Miles (284 Kms) out of the response to show it somewhere else on the SG2 screen.

    I had tried the PID 6180 for Kms and changed TXD: 0720226180, RXF: 026845610680, RXD :3C10, Math 0010 0005 BFA5 as my car is on Kms and not in Miles, but have not had any lucky response in Kms ( guess I am doing something wrong with the Maths). For now I will keep using Miles.

    The challenge is to show in the SG2 Screen the higher portion of Miles - 177 . According to the Xgauge I need to at least extract 54CD, which is located from 1C to 2B (16 bits long) : RXD :1C10 and for some reason divide it by 7A. so the MTH : 0001 007A 0000 . This returned nothing on screen.

    I will appreciate anyone with the able to tell me how to extract the higher portion of the Odometer in a 2 byte format tor the SG2 screen to show it up , or to tell me What I am doing wrong
