*CHAT* Adios Summer, Winters Here: The Next Episode

I was on the phone a month ago with AEM. I did multiple volt meter testing to the sending unit. It is getting proper power but the original sending unit failed the ohm meter test. So I sent it in and literally just opened this brand new sending unit and installed it and bam it does the same thing.. reads 0 Boost.

The gauge has it's own power lead and ground and the connector plugs directly from gauge to sending unit... no way of messing this up. They even call it their easy plug and play gauge. . .

That's a shame as that's not a cheap gauge .So you did volt test but did they also have you ohm out the wires from the gauge to the sender ? I would suspect one of two things at this point and that would be a broken wire in the harness between the gauge and sender or a faulty gauge as I doubt that you have gotten 2 bad senders although I suppose anything is possible .I'd be on the phone with them again tomorrow if I were you .

So AEM just called me already.. they are completely baffled. They want me to send back the whole thing now. Sounds like maybe the gauge itself but they have no idea. I feel honored to baffle them.. Maybe I'll ask for a sponsorship later

Seems odd it reads vaccum but not boost if you have it wired properly which I think you probably do. I'd be calling aem and probably sending that gauge into have it checked if you just replaced the sender and it still does the same thing it was doing .I also noticed there is snow on the ground in that video Dam

I had a very similar issue with my AEM boost gauge. AEM replaced the gauge for me as they ended up being the problem.

I had pretty much the same issue, and IIRC, the guy from AEM said, a while ago they had a batch of gauges that were improperly pinned from the factory, so if you de-pin and re-pin based on how it came it would still be incorrect, and I think that's what happened with my gauge. Key thing is they replaced it free of cost to me after determining the gauge became broken because of the improperly pinned plug, and this was even several months after I purchased it new, since I bought it a couple months before installing.

Well hopefully he has the same issue and they take care of it .I have the aem wide band and it's been solid since day one hell I think I am still on the same sensor since day 1 and wow have I had many many tunes and tuners since then and it's still accurate .

They do have great customer service I've contacted them a few times and always go smoothly.

Did you guys see that ASP is having a little sale on this catch cans/battery trays. I wonder if I can get it to look good in a 8th gen bay.
