I have a 2003 Ram with the HO 5.9 CTD; do I need to install an EGT probe to monitor EGTs with this unit?

The 2003 5.9L Cummins does not have a built in EGT Probe. It would be necessary to purchase one and install it for you to get that reading on this tuner. Please feel free to call if you have any questions.

On my Volkswagen Jetta there were two sensors. One just after the catty and one on the exhaust manifold. the one with the long cable goes on the manifold. By the way, I recomend replacing the upstream first and see if this does the trick. Also get one of those cheap ODB blue tooth code readers and the free android or windows app called TORX. Understand and monitor the codes as you drive. One bad code is okay but two is not. I actually cleaned the caty by removing it and dumping acetone through it. Probably wont pass again and it was a lot of work.

No and these guages are crap and the company is terrible. Go with autometer and you cant go wrong

Terry, i believe what they are referring to is that there are other accessories that plug into the same port as the egt cable plugs into therefore you may not be able to run the egt probe and another accessory that uses the same port.

I'm pretty sure if I remember correctly, it comes with the temp sensor, bind plug, and the wires to hook everything up. I had a dx8 so all the telemetry went to my tx live. It told me temp, voltage, and signal from the telemetry. I had it on an octocopter so hooking to rpm up would have been useless because you can only read one esc's rpm. Other than that great unit.

says in booklet that it works on 1991-94 4.0L. v-6 with 8th vin digit X efi or mfi. Did scan on my truck cause tranny was slamming gears. Scanner listed bad component I replaced with free unit from junk vehicle and now my truck runs perfect. Buy this unit.

I beleive The complete EGR Delete does need programming to keep from tripping the check engine light. I did the bullet proofing however left the EGR in and electronicaly turned it off with this tuner. The reason why I did these rather than EGR delete is due to the mixed responses I recieved from forums and in speaking with some mechanics...I did the bullet proof EGR Cooler and oil cooler and installed a new valve. Along with head steads. I noticed a substantial drop in EGT's and increased performance and smoother operation just by turnjng off the EGR electronicaly and obviously running with the tunes its a completely different truck..in every aspect... As far as running Apple based computer...I believe you can however, you can goto the SCT website and look up the tuner...it tells you the operating systems its compatible with...or you could call them. Sorry for the long winded response and hope it helps...I would like to end with this: The tuner JUST with the can tunes awoke my truck and made driving my truck fun. I look forward to using my truck. The 65hp tow tune works great whike towing. I am afraid of NO hill!

1990 Model GM cars has got very basic Error reporting mechanism in ECU, I've done it on OBD1 port Yukon, really not worth it unless you've got 1996 and above OBD2 supported vehicle.

I have a 2001 Ford F250 with the 7.3 diesel. With the watchdog I could monitor speed, RPM and turbo boost only. I already have a speedometer and a tach in the dash from ford, so only thing that was new was turbo boost. I send it back! Now I'm waiting to see how good Amazons return policy is.

This scan tool does not respond to the current abs warning light to my car which is Chevy. Tahoe 2007. All it shows to the screen is error. Tried it again several times and it shows the same result. I tried it to my other car and it shows the same thing "error".

If you have a OBD reader that has SRS Info, it will tell you which sensor is bad. I replaced both on my '05 Silverado and the system reset and is working fine. Both of mine went out at the same time. But you need the reader to be sure.

I say no as it can mess with the RTD and temps. If you do, keep it away from the probe. (This is from rec tec themselves)

Check wiring, check 10amp fuse on back of headunit, etc. Make sure that it is installed correctly!
