My 87 GN came with a Scanmaster in it (don't know which version as the car hasn't been used all that much since I got it and when I had my last Turbo Buick in 90-92, these weren't out yet).
Nonetheless, it was working just fine and I was able to use the button to scroll through and see all the data points (TPS, MPH, RPM, O2, etc).
I installed a new TurboTweak chip and now the Scanmaster only shows the O2 voltage - if I push the button to scroll to the other screens, I get dashes across the displays. I don't think I have a wiring issue as I get the one screen with no problem. Car runs beautifully though, I just can't see the parameters!
Ideas?
 
sounds like The datastream is set up wrong in the chip. When you first turn on the ket the scanmanster will display SM 2.1 or SM 2.0, check that and tell Eric which one you have and he should be able to fix you up

Thanks for the quick reply Mike, I'll check tonight to see what it does and post back - thanks!
 
Figured it out today - it is user error (me, myself, mine) D'oh! All is fine with the Scanmaster (2.0 by the way!)
Thanks!
