Default AeroForce Gauge Problems and Failures

Mine is getting replaced because of a screen failure. Wondering if anyone else has had issues.

oh no ! how long have you had yours ?? I know heat affects them , during the summer when the interior would heat up , the face was almost a solid color and hard to read , so i got a sun screen and would put a towel over the gauge , that help lots

Only had mine since December and they probably don't have more than 12 hours of operating time since it's winter and not my daily driver.

Never heard of anyone having issues with them, I have mine in vent pods was always worried the AC being on would jack them up but have had them for more than two years and they still work perfect. Awesome Gauge's... well worth the money..

I've had my dual set-up in my car since the middle of last summer and they're working great.

Starting the 3rd season with mine (which I bought used) and no issues thus far.

I installed mine last February and have never had any problems with mine. the screen does get a little dull if you use the roush vent pods and run the heat, but other than that, it works fantastic

Doogie thanks for recommending the white display. Having my top down any other color would be harder to see.

Just have to brag on AeroForce. Considering my dual gauges were only two months old they sent me a brand new one to replace the one that died.

GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Glad it helped and thanks for the feedback as I may end up selling mine and ordering a new set with the white display as most of the time I am in the car, the top is dropped. But I have seen issues with heat as the gauge displays really wash out after the car sits for a while out in the sun with the top up.
