Hi everyone

anyone with a PX1 that has a ScanGuage/UltraGauge etc - how do you leave it plugged in and have the storage box in place? Have you unclipped the ODB socket and just left it hanging or is there enough room to plug it in and put the storage box back?

Cheers.
Andrew.

The OBD port should be able to be removed and pushed backwards to hide it. I have seen others cut a section out so it’s visible at all times

Can i ask, for those with a px2 and newer, which obd port did you plug into. Does the white one at the back support everything?

My front is white & the rear is black.
My front & rear do the same thing.
I am permanently plugged into the second port.

They are the same, white is just piggy backed off the black one at the back. Which is the gateway module.

Just push the white OBD plug back out of the holder then connect the scant gage cable and close the door
