Problem with Gryphon turning off
Does anyone have any problems with their Gryphon Dash mount programmer shutting off and turning back on while driving with no problem in what stage it is in.But today it turned off and went through resetting itself to stock,it then needed reprogrammed to towing. One other question is all the display colors won't change,they all seem to stay blue,is there any trick to changing the color.Have no problem changing percentage of light.:confused:

Ugh - I've never had this problem, but I seem to recall someone else that did and it sounded like a poor connection at the OBDII port, or a faulty OBD cable, possibly poor connection at the back of the Gryphon, or, a "loose" fuse for the cigar lighter/OBD power supply.
I'm really puzzled by the unit "resetting itself back to stock". I can't see how it could do that without changing the program in the PCM too. Finally, if you can't change the display colors, it sounds like you COULD have a defective unit. I'm afraid this is a job for "The Mad Doctor"! :superman smiley: - Jack |
"The Mad Doctor"! ALL HIDE!!!

I'm probably the one Jack was referring to regarding a Gryphon rebooting itself. I never noticed it resetting the level on mine. It usually just shuts off and comes right back on, tho once in a while it may stay off for a while. One time it didn't come back on until I shut off and restarted the truck.
I have checked all the connections, fuses etc and everything appears tight. I haven't really done much more than that, as we have way too much snow and cold up here, and it doesn't appear to have any negative effect on the way the truck operates. I guess if it's still doing it I'll deal with it in the spring. I haven't tried changing the screen color but I'll check that and see if we have that in common. Jerry, you didn't say if you have custom tunes or if your Gryphon is stock (nor do I know if it would make any difference) or if new tunes might correct this problem. I don't have mine as of yet (hint, hint, hint, Corey and Bill) |
My Gryphon is stock also.

Bill, we need your help here!

Your symptoms also don't seem to be the usual low battery-related problems. I especially don't like the fact that it showed itself back at "stock", when your truck was operating at a higher level. - Jack |
Gryphon programmer
My Gryphon is new.Saturday is when it booted itself(with about 40 miles on it),i then went through all the steps to go back to tow stage.I drove it for about 10 miles,it didn't try to boot itself again.I put it into race stage,bine driving it in that stage ever since,it has not booted itself again.But it still shuts off and turns on,and not sure on changing the color.
Off the subject,but i'm very impressed with the way my truck runs!:2thumbs: |
