I just installed a gryphon on my 2008 FX4. The engine oil temp reads 0. All of the other PID's seem to be reading fine. Do I have a bad sensor? Really not sure why all of the other's would work, and the EOT doesn't?

OK, did some research. Appears i don't even have an oil sensor. Guess that explains it!
Could someone please address question 2. Is it normal for the gryphon to make you reprogram your tune if you un-plug it from the OBD and then plug it back in? |

Do you have a CS/CTS Gryphon or the older monochrome kind? The reason I ask, is because the ignition key has to be ON before you plug in the monochrome Gryphon. It doesn't matter what state the ignition is in for the CS/CTS platforms. And, you don't have an oil temperature sensor. One of Ford's cost cutting measures. ![]() - Jack

I have the monochrome. I un-pluged it and then re-pluged it with the ignition off.
So, they key has to be ON when you un-plug/re-plug? I just reprogramed the tow tune, it did the download and that was it. I was just surprised when it powered up and showed the initialization screen again. |

This advice also applies if you disconnect the battery. The Gryphon thinks it's been unplugged and you have to actually unplug it and then plug it back in with the key ON once the battery is reconnected. - Jack |
