GI: "YarGauge" replacement clock module (Digital Tach, etc.) - Page 30 - Toyota Yaris Forums

henry33 · 09-16-2010, 05:39 PM

i want another video with full display usage :) please

Impressive. Can't wait to replace that boring, single function clock in my Yaris!

Well it essentially functions as a scanguage in itself. And anything that is built into a stock system looks so much sleeker than a scanguage mounted anywhere would. Plus, no wires anywhere out in the open. If its on par with the pricing on the scanguage and its integrated nicely it will sell just as well.

I know the OBD port has seperate functionality other than the features you are including. I know you are putting basic functions in there that common users will use but I saw you were adding a USB Port as well. Will you also be releasing the source code too? or make it reprogrammable to add different functions.

I do not know how much data you can program into this, but maybe you can make seperate "scripts" for sale that give the ability to use different functions with the gauge at a later date. Essentially you have reach to all of the OBD functions, i know it may just be a niche market, but it would be cool to see if it is reporting any knock/IAT/TPS etc.

$150 sounds good to me..if us cluster swappers w/ tachs can have a method of mounting and using this ;)

I was wondering about this as well Scott. Any chance at a non-OEM mounting location or setup for those with a tach already and who'd like a different setup for AFR / voltage / MPG etc.

Also any chance the unit can display other stuff creatively with a bar graph? Like an AFR graph? An MPG graph that goes up to green for high MPG and down to red for low MPG?

I believe he said at one point that you would be able to setup charts and whatnot via the USB interface and some software. It would be pretty sweet to have it on the main unit, but I'll probably be keeping a laptop hooked up to it anyway so that's fine with me.

jarrieta · 09-24-2010, 11:54 PM

I'd bite that for $150

CTScott · 09-25-2010, 12:15 AM

Development around the new display is going well. This week I added air to fuel ratio. I am amazed at how responsive the Yaris' wideband sensors are. At some point this weekend I'll take some video of the AFR mode in action.

kaijyu · 09-25-2010, 01:04 AM

Is there any chance it will be compatable with the Oz cluster?

There's no place to mount it within the OZ cluster, so you will need the vent mount version or the separately packaged version.

Dear CTScott,
We at the Yaris World community would like to say thank you for the hard work that you put in each and every moment you are developing this awesome tool. Included with this thank you is a picture of the prize you have won.

Also included is what your prize will turn into if we dont have this beautiful piece of craftsmanship by christmas time.

Love,

P.S. Oscar bites!!!

Another little update - Thanks to Toyota finally fixing a bug in TechStream, on 09's and older, ambient temperature now doesn't require tapping the wire to the AC amplifier.

of course you know... this means absolutely nothing to me..but if you say it means something then i believe you. You are YarisGuru. Does this mean i have less wires to tap when i install it?

Correct. I now have every function working by CAN message to the appropriate ECU, so for the clock replacement version, you literally will just plug the clock's power connector into the YarGauge, and connect just two wires to the cluster's connector.

Today I figured out the cruise control messaging, so I can now tell if cruise control is "on" or "set", just like the 09+ cluster.

dean_park · 10-03-2010, 02:20 PM

By 09 and older, do you mean 06,07,08? Or 09+? I only ask because you say it was a bug fix, so I assume it's 09 and newer.

The 2010s and newer support the standard OBD request for ambient air. The 09's and older (06-09) did not, so on them I have to get the ambient air temp from the AC ECU. The bug fix was in the TechStream software, not in the car.

Ready for a beta tester yet? I can pop over on a moment's notice
