No...added that pic in error,it's just the mp3,fogs,sub knob,power lock array...guage plugs into obd2 under dash

jjwitter · 01-03-2011, 12:55 PM

Installed mine yesterday, works great, I just need to calibrate it a little

Shinare · 01-03-2011, 04:21 PM

Just checked my order status and it still says "processing"... :(

Hope they just dont update that.

Shinare · 01-05-2011, 12:26 PM

I have not yet received my UltraGauge yet and contacted their support. They gave me the USPS tracking number which indicates that it was delivered to my house two days ago.

I never received it. :( I guess it was stolen off my porch or something. That really pisses me off.

Shinare · 01-05-2011, 02:39 PM

UPDATE: Went home for lunch and looked. Found it hidden in my bushes! WooHoo!

What's this gonna do to CTScott's YarGauge sales?

Shinare · 01-06-2011, 09:41 AM

Well, bad news for me, but good news for CTScott, mine arrived DOA and so far having to discuss the problem in a forum thread type support system sucks. Waiting on the support person's reply is only half the suckyness. The other half is trying to convey the problem in the first place in such a stop/start manor. I still haven't gotten confirmation from them that I will be sending it back or an RMA number or anything.

I explained to them that the ecometer did and still does work in the OBDII port but their gauge doesn't even power on. Their response was "This is odd since all UGs are tested just prior to shipping."

I don't know if thats meant to call me a liar or if thats meant to reassure me that I'm a "1 in a million" problem. Either way I just want to send it back and get a replacement. *sigh* just my stinkin luck I guess.

I must add that they've been very cordial throughout the process so I don't have anything bad to say about them yet. Still waiting on a response with an RMA number and send back instructions.

WeeYari · 01-06-2011, 10:46 AM

I know pictures quite often don't do things justice, but from annn's photo, the construction of that thing looks cheap as hell.

Shinare · 01-06-2011, 11:27 AM

^^ Once you receive the item the first thing you see when you open the box is a yellow insert that directs you to the website address for "Before You Start". The thing that really stands out to me about those instructions are the extreme emphasis they put on taking care not to break the unit. (Which end user breaking of the unit it not covered under warranty). Going so far as to put a "test question" at the end of each page to make sure you read and understand the page. Things like "Do not adjust the position of the gauge by grabbing the gauge, but by the neck of the window mount", or "do not leave the gauge on the dashboard on hot summer days or if the temperature drops below -20F." Doing so voids the warranty.

PS> Still no word back on a return authorization.

annn · 01-06-2011, 11:37 AM

Ultra works great ,way better looking than scan guage and way smarter.mine works great and my friends does too. I like the product so far and have moved my scangage to my Tacoma it fits in better with a truck interior IMO. I would buy another...

I just downloaded the PDF manual and avoided all their hoops,I agree they have a weird set up policy but their is ways around it .

EckoDG · 01-06-2011, 12:17 PM

ill wait for more feedbacks to buy, looks cheap, cheap things somethings go spensier..

google search ...tons of feedback..before i got mine i checked it out a lot.

Shinare · 01-06-2011, 12:25 PM

UPDATE: I just got a pre-paid return postage label sent to me! I wasn't expecting that and am glad they stepped up. So far, even though I was unlucky enough to receive one that was not working, they've been responsive and fair, even if it is just a thread style support system.
