Oh how I wish it did. An 8 speed in my Power Wagon with 4.10's would be great!

I mounted mine in the drawer under the radio. Now I see they sell one with blue tooth so you can just hide it under the dash and make adjustments with your phone . Just my luck.

This is what I was thinking of trying - did you have to do any cutting or were you able to fish the wire?

EDIT - ok just read your second post :). Sounds like it was a hassle. I saw a Jeep with it mounted under the steering wheel, so out of the way/out of sight but able to pull it down if needed.... I may try that if there is similar spot under.

I mounted mine above the ign key. You can't see the led's if you're not looking straight on. The way I figure I will keept it in city +3 unless someone is foolish enough to challenge me on the highway, then it's sport + @ +4:D

Why didn’t you go bloutooth and then you could mount on the inside of that plastic? Plenty of room, I made a bundle of the cable and zip tied it all together. As if the god wanted me to buy and install this unit, there was a factory cable clip on the factory cable where the power commander clipped in (above the pedals) I just tried it and wow, all the stock sluggishness is gone. City +4 feels great. I tried it in sport and it was a bit of agressive with the exhaust rumbling.

Put mine in the tray along with the Diablo. Just drilled a 1" hole in the back of the drawer. It has to be that big to get the connectors through.d370a079e3c454a1747a8efeea4754fd.jpg

Are you asking me or just in general? Most of this thread pre-dates the BT model, it started back in 17. As for me, I ran across a nice deal on a used one and was looking at other mounting options.

Is it doing it in ECO or any other setting? Eco mode puts the input voltage too low and will sometimes cause cel.

It's not in eco but I don't remember the exact setting it was. I turned it off but have yet to try unhooking the battery. Last time I had to remove it from the truck and reinstall to clear the light.

Make sure the app is up to date. keep the PC updated and it should solve it

I don't have an app and I didn't know that the PC required updates.

My PC is the only digital add on I haven't had trouble with. My tuner has been **** since day one. And my burnbox had an internal short. They took right care of it, no problem.
