Commander

I ordered a Commander and was going over the instructions on the website before I get the unit so I'm familiar w/ all the setup, features, etc... I have a manual tranny and was wondering if there is any reason to monitor the trans temp on it? I know it's important on the auto, but from what I remember, I didn't think the manual guys really cared about it as much?! Input please!


Thanks,

Tony

You don't need to monitor the manual tranny which is why the Commander tranny temp gauge is also designed to monitor your engine oil temp instead

You don't need to ground anything. If you do not hook it up just don't select it to be on the screen. If you want you can take the same probe we give you and screw it into the test port on the oil filter housing and read oil temperature.
