Can we run a trans temp gauge off of the left side tap in the trans? Ive heard of a few guys doin it. I know the pan is the best spot for it but i just changed my fluid and filter and dont want to drop the pan again. Please post pics. THANKS

Yes you can. Temp won't be completely accurate but it'll be close.

Sweet! Thanks

Whats the easiest way to rought the line?

Not sure. I haven't tried to run any wires yet. Usually through one of the grommets in the floor or firewall.

thinking about doing a trans flush, and putting a deep pan on, guess it be a good time for the temp gauge to

I tried to put a 2 quart deep TCI pan on and the rear part of the pan hit the crossover exhaust . FYI. Is there another pan we can use?

u could get a dashhawk or aeroforce gauge and it will read the trans temp and do a lot more too

Scangauge II as well

with the areoforce dose it automatically read everything or do u have to buy different sensors for it ? im perrty sure i no the answer but i just have to ask and see lol

Scan gauge reads all that the PCM does.

so really all i got to do is wire it up and i get the have a read out of all the 50 some things and the list ?

it plugs into your obd2 port, and only displays 2 parameters at once! i always have mine set on trans temp and MPG

 

[iridelow]

ok i saw that i can only read two at once but is there any way to hard wire it ?

 

[dje08tbss]

why would you want to hard wire it?

What temp should the Trans run with a cooler anyway?

i think like 180 max! i dont have one yet but my friend does, i think thats what he said! im sure others will chime in!

 

[TmanSC07TBSS]

Thanks man, that is about what mine runs depending on outside temp.

i want to hard wire it so nothing pluged into my obd port and to make it look cleaner
