Has anyone else had these problems with their XCal2?

It's happened to me and quite a few others. Everytime when the speedo/tach quit working and the SCT not powering on...it's been fuse #8. Just pull it and look at it. Fuse #8 controls that ODB port. It's pretty easy to tell when the fuse is blown.

It took me several blown fuses before I realized that it never blew out when I turned my satellite receiver off, and after talking with Xcal tech support who asked if I had any aftermarket electronics.

I learned a long time ago even if the fuses don't look blown they still might function just not correctly. I had so many fuses blow I've replaced almost every fuse with one when it blows shows a light. Makes life so much easier.
I would go through the manual and swap the fuses you think would fix the problem. I've done it many times Start at fuse #8 like people suggest

Y'all are pretty much awesome. You diagnosed the problem without even ever seeing the car.
Fuse #8 was the culprit. Replaced the stock 10 AMp one with a 20 Amp one. Hopefully, that should solve the problem.
I bet the whole "automatic top" thing might have been enough to push it over the edge.
