    Default Map sensor problem in efi live scan tool

    I have been longing some data in the efi live scan tool and have the map pid selected to read and log data in the dashboard but the needle never moves on the map section of the efi live dashboard. I have no dtc for map. The needle should move whether the pid is imperial or metric correct?

    In the scantool goto the Data tab, and move the slide bar (across the bottom) and see if the MAP pid shows values.

    Which MAP pid are you using...?
    Which year/model/vehicle...?

    Can you check in your tune file if the MAP DTC's are enabled/disabled...?

    Post screenshots of your dash and of the Data tab.

    Is the replot button (looks like a star/snowflake, at the bottom) red...?

    Which V7 build version (do Help->About)...?

    On the PIDs tab set all pids to Metric, on the Dash, select the Metric version of each pid (on each gauge do rightclick->Metric), save the Dash and try again.

    Is you MAP sensor connected ok (physically and electrically)...?

    Did you click the Monitor button (yellow) or the Record button (red)...?

    Try the record button.

    Switching the gauges to metric made it work!
