Default Max Gs Revisited
Couldn't find the most recent one. Here's mine.





By the way, is the sensor in the DIC or located elsewhere?

No it actually says 1.29 and has said that since I bought it 3 months ago. I think it might be screwed up cuz it doesn't show different numbers very often. I'll take a pic tomorrow and show you. I wonder if it can be reset.

Weird... You can reset it by hitting the middle button. If it still displays that the sensor may be bad.

I stand corrected. I would like to make up a cool excuse fopr being retarded but I'm too retarded. How did you get a full g on acceleration. I ran around for about an hr trying and could only manage this.

It might be the YAW sensor located in front (towards the rear of the vehicle) of the gear shifter.

The DIC is just one part number that displays information with five selection buttons.
