I sent the company an email and within a few hours, I had a reply with a link to a page with about a half dozen possible x-gauge commands to enter. After a few keystokes, it was working great! YMMV but you might want to fire off an email and ask them about it.

Unfortunately, I have tried and ClubFrontier does not offer any hope on this. Any temperature retrieved just seems to mirror the engine coolant temperature. It isn't like the Ford Escape I was using where it just worked. I have Torque Pro and Nissan Advanced EX which fails to find a workable transmission temperature. The P0710 and P0128 PIDs are fault codes for notifying that the transmission temperature is too low, not for real-time temperature measurement.

I'm not a member of clubfrontier, (had not actually heard of it) so this link may or may not work, but it seems to indicate they are having some success with the Scangauge:

I installed a scan gauge in the Bounder motor home. I found it interesting and helpful if you perceived a problem. But, it would have been much more useful if you could set alarm parameters for specific things that lead to engine or tranny failure. That might get one off the shoulder of the road into a safe location to trouble shoot.

Then again, the SG would have not helped when A rear brake caliper seized and caused a 3 fire extinguisher fire..... I carry 2. And of course the subsequent blow out was on the drivers side, leaving me to fight the fire 3 feet from traffic travelling 70mph+.

What would have helped was TPMS, which was "on the list".....(sigh)
