Default question for aeroforce interceptor owners

I am wondering if someone who owns this gauge can tell me if the oil temperature data is correct or not. Mine gets a reading but it is way way off, starting at 600 degrees when cold and moving to about 160 when warm, 130 when hot. I need to know if the gauge is just reading wrong or if the temp sending unit might be bad. I do have a problem when the engine is cold, and I am trying to find something out of whack that could cause it. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

No, it gets independent numbers, not from the previous display like some things do. I am just wondering if someone with the most recent firmware can confirm whether the oil temp reading works or not.

Yeah, and I have been playing with some different items to monitor and all that.. sweet gauge. I just wish you could choose your car on it and have the items that don't work go away.

I would appreciate if you could check it out for me. I am thinking there isn't a temp sensor for oil, but at the same time, I would think it is something fairly simple and cheap for something so important for the ECU to monitor. Plus, why would it start high and come down slowly and then stop fairly close to where it should be?
