2018 GT PP1 Diff Gauge

Thanks for all of the responses; dealer stated that it tested fine no codes etc etc however they were told to put the gauge in boiling water and then reinstall . The gauge is now working.

wow that's pretty nuts. who would of thought a thermal resistor would need that kind of waking up. i've heard of people boiling the thermostat to make sure it's opening at the correct temperatures and what not; but never a sensor lol

thanks for the information man!

good old trick right there to keep in thought :hail:

Put the gauge in boiling water - or the sender??

It probably was the sending unit ; they did not note it on the repair sheet as all it said was that the gauge responds when the diff shield responds; when working at track temperature.
(that is not true )
The manager is the one who explained what they did ie put the gauge(gauge being up front and digital!) into boiling water he probably meant sending unit/ the piece going into the diff itself

How do you activate the Diff Temp Gauge?
In my EU-Spec Car i cant find it.

Do you have the digital gauge cluster?

Yessir!

2018 GT PP1 10R80 and ive seen the Temp-Sensor in the Diff.

Thats why im curious. ;)

When you are in your pony button settings and it gives you your choice of gauges to display, is it an available option to check and add to the screen?

 

[FightingFalcon]

Sadly not.

Only Choices are IAT, TT, OP, CHT but no Diff-Temp

 

[db252]

Hmm. That a euro thing I’m guessing? It may be possible that you can code it in with forscan.

I also have a Euro spec '18 GT PP1 and I can confirm that it can't display the diff temp gauge.

 

[FightingFalcon]

There is a Forscan Code for it.
My Tuner is lookig into it and i will report as soon as i know if it works or not.

Sorry, completely forgot this thread.

Works finde with forscan to show the axle temp.
