Hey guys I have an install issue with my Autometer Cobalt digital boost gauge. Does anyone else have one? It seems that the gauge needs to calibrate itself and it does this right when it turns on. The problem is that if you are tapped into a power source that cuts out when the vehicle is cranking then it calibrates right after that. Basically meaning the vehicle shows vacuum and therefore displays much higher boost than normal. The only way to avoid this is to tap into a power source that stays on while the vehicle cranks (constant power) and we have only found a few spots that do this and they all seem to trigger cels or codes. The cigarette lighter triggers the traction control, the keyless entry one triggers a couple others and another one seems to trigger a whole bunch. What did you guys use? Does anyone know of any good spots to tie into constant power that won't set off the codes? I don't know what to do, it's a really nice gauge.
