[@bill05555]

Thanks for all the info!

[@deerphoria4314]

So when you first get this and plug it into your OBD2 port it will read what vehicle it is? But when you want to use the scangauge in another vehicle you have to program it using the codes provided on the scangauge website? Is that correct? I am thinking of getting one and once I familiarize myself with it, I will buy a scangauge 3 during Black Friday.

[@repairvehicle]

for standard data (coolant temp) to read, plug and play with any vehicles. If you want atf temp or any other none standard parameters, you need to program for each vehicle.

[@deerphoria4314]

@@repairvehicle are there any other similar products out there that are similar to the scangauge? I’m most interested in transmission fluid temp because I want to start changing my own fluid.

[@repairvehicle]

@deerphoria4314 I have contacted many companies and asked if their products can read transmission fluid temperature and unfortunately they all told me not. Otherwise I would have created video and let people know.

Hi , can i use this tool in my Hyundai Genesis 2011 to ckeck transmisión temperature? Do i have to program to use in my car? Thanks.

[@repairvehicle]

according to scangauge website it will work. However, you have to program. Its very easy to program, there are videos links in this video for how to program.

[@reccocon3442]

Referring to automatic trans., the ScanGuage is most needed for a sealed transmission system correct? I have a dipstick on Toyotas.

[@repairvehicle]

Scangauge is excellent tool to have, just in general to know how everything is working on the car. For example, coolant temperature instead of having just analog gauge that is stock in the middle. Oil pressure, oil temperature, tire pressure readout.

[@ninjabyspin]

Hi do you have to program every gauge or is some preset from your car computer example water temperature is it a plug in and go?

[@repairvehicle]

Many of them are already preset. Atf temperature is not preset

[@reccocon3442]

Thank you! Very good info/tutorial on your channel. Question: Is there a mix using Amsoil Sever Lube AND/WITH/OR Amsoil Syncronizer Fluid ratios on Toy. 5 speed manual?

[@repairvehicle]

What year and model?

[@ianchiang84]

Great video:) By the way, i was thinking what's the difference with this compared to a direct temperature sensor stand alone gauge? Is this less accurate or similar?

[@repairvehicle]

Not any different, if you have one.

[@damienbell3155]

There a 2-2.9 difference in direct temp and gauge alone temp there’s a couple videos out about this. Cause to change the atf fluid on Lexus and Toyotas you need to discard drain excuse fluid in a specific temp range.

[@repairvehicle]

It's not just Toyota and Lexus, every car brand is this way

[@Mbice]

I know this is a old video but will the scangauge 2 show the transmission temperature on my 2015 Toyota Camry.

No button to turn off. It turns off when key is removed or engine is off. It stays plugged in.

[@M_Ladd]

Is that a generic scanner or is it manufacturer specific? Does it just give you the code numbers or does it also specify what those numbers refer to or signify? Thx!

[@repairvehicle]

You program codes for each car manufacturers. There are genetic codes that are standard and programmed already, like coolant temperature and so on.

[@M_Ladd]

repairvehicle Does it tell you what the code means? $160 not worth the price without the manufacturers codes? Those are the ones you need?

[@repairvehicle]

For transmission fluid temperature they have specific set of codes just for Toyota.

[@M_Ladd]

repairvehicle It appears there is some lag before it shows up on the screen. I'm wondering more about repair codes, check engine light, sensors, so on and so forth. Do you know if it states what the code signifies for that particular manufacturers model and what part is actually is causing the problem.

[@repairvehicle]

It doesn't say what code means, you have to Google it to find out what it means. That's how all Scan tools work, they will give you the code and then you have research to find out what that code means.

[@vladzalozh9996]

Thanks for quick reply. Have you ever stumbled up on one?

[@repairvehicle]

No, I have researched hundreds of companies and emailed them personally and no one can read Toyota transmission fluid temperature except for scangauge.

Correct for both.

[@mikem7221]

Thanks for this tutorial - I have the ScanGaugeII and was wondering why I didn't see the transmission fluid temp (TFT) displayed. Knowing that I have to get stuff off of the ScanGauge website to make it work makes it easier. Thanks again for all the informative videos :-)

[@repairvehicle]

Mike M, no problem. Code for transmission temperature is only for the Scangaugeii with latest software revision. Code doesn't work with older scangauge unless software is updated on scangauge. Transmission temperature code for Toyota /Lexus was added recently.

[@mikem7221]

Thank you for the note from yesterday. I copied down the XGauge codes for the Toyota/Lexus/Scion that I found on the scangauge.com website, and I've put both (the ones that I believe you have written down in your video). I used two different slots for each one (Transmission Temperature (2010+ - ALT) and Transmission Temperature (2010+), and I named one TFT, and the other TRA. The only slot that is giving me a reading is the one labeled TRA. Anyways, the reading on the TRA was of 40(degrees Fahrenheit I'm guessing) - while parked. I drove it after I put in the two codes (TFT/TRA), with the Scangauge plugged in and running - the slot labeled TRA showed 40 but did not go up or down, it stayed at 40. My question is, would putting in the third code (Transmission Temperature 07E021D9 [ ......]) for Toyota/Lexus/Scion vehicles from the website work as well, and when you had your unit plugged in for the video, had you driven your car before filming, or were you idling it in your driveway? Would I have to drive it for a short while in order for the fluid to warm up and get up to that that temp? Thanks again, and I hope that my description of things isn't too confusing.

[@repairvehicle]

On my cars scangauge reads live atf temp when engine not running, running, and when driving. In this video car is idling and parked. Second code from website works only on my 2012 sequoia and third code works only 2011 es350. First code doesn't work with my cars. You can try first code, it might work on your car since it depends on year and model. For example current temp in my garage is around 77F, sequoia has not been driven for the past 8 hours and it reads 77F atf temp with engine not running just ignition turned on. Please check this video it has more details on how fast transmission warms up with scangauge kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnukYqqLr7t4fc0 What year and model is your vehicle?

[@mikem7221]

Thanks for clarifying, I will give the other code a try when I have time. My car is a 2013 Toyota Camry SE. I will look at the other video you mentioned in your post as soon as I can.

[@repairvehicle]

Make sure that codes that you putting into scangauge, entered correctly. Because I had same issue with es350, i have putting all 3 codes and nothing, then I double checked and i found my own typo.

[@JesusSanchez-ee7re]

So to check the temperature of the transmission fluid for my Tacoma, I have to program the scan reader first?

[@repairvehicle]

Maybe, depends on the year of your Tacoma.

[@repairvehicle]

If your Tacoma is 4 cylinder you should have transmission dipstick and you don't need the scangauge. If your Tacoma is 6 cylinder and don't have transmission dipstick then you need scangauge to read transmission fluid temperature.

[@repairvehicle]

Huy Nguyen, third code on the list from scangauge website worked on my 2011 es350. Make sure you have entered code correctly, because at first I was able to read temperature on my sequoia with second code and not with the third code on es350. I contacted scangauge and explained to them and they sent me this code (Try both of the 2010+ XGauges with the following RXDs: 1808, 2808, 3808) I end up not using this code because, I made an error when was entering their code from website. Give a try to this code and if it doesn't work, send email to scangauge. They have very good customer service.

[@repairvehicle]

Huy Nguyen, are you able to make it work for you?

[@huyqng]

Scangauge II not worked with my 2014 toyota Corolla, I tried everything, and I got an email from Scangauge Rep. back said : If the codes were entered correctly and do not report any data, unfortunately, we do not have any alternate XGauge codes to try. This likely means that your vehicle does not report this sensor through the ECU. Toyota tended to be mostly consistent with how they report sensors. They tended to keep the same parameter ID across vehicles with only a slight difference. This is why I had you try multiple RXDs but the TXD was mostly left unchanged.
