Maybe the ground the wire is connected to not stable? Just an idea.
Jeff - is this the lead coming from the flow control module? Or is it one the yellow CAT5 cable? I didn't hear any relay clicking on the unit at all. I hear the the unit click when I press the button to turn the gauge on, but while the ECU is saying MAP1/MAP2/MAP1/MAP2 etc, nothing is clicking. I will check my grounds and everything. I am also going to go check to see if I manually ground the pin I am hooked to whether or not it stays in MAP1 or MAP2.
