Super Monitor & its wiring - Page 2

Clock

Calender

Range: Predicts how many miles left you can drive based on a starting off with a full tank (also considers how much MPG you are going through for this figure).

Counts down how many miles left since last oil change if you reset it. Beeps if you haven't changed the oil by the scheduled interval when you open the door or was it when you first start it.

Calculates MPG since you last hit the reset button for that feature.

Checks engine and automatic tranny codes/problems

If anyone wonder what it looks like, here are some pictures:
Installed:

The three components of the Super Monitor:

And another shot:

I have read that the '87-'88 are wired for it, and that the '89-'92 need some wiring for it to work. Seems as if there is some disagreement on the pertentage of pre pre 89 that are wired for it. Some say that the pre 89 are wired for it, some say that not all the pre 89 cars are wired for it.

I was wondering if anyone knows that if the Super Monitors that are installed in the Canadian versions of the supras still show MPG or if they change l/100 kms because this would also change the range to km's instead of miles. Or is this just something that the computer in the car would automatically change. Thank You

Not all pre89 MKIII come wired for the SuperMonitor either. My '88 N/A was one which was not. With a pre89 TEWD you can wire it up but it's not fun by any means.

Also, just to answer an old question which wasn't previously answered: There are different control units for MPH vs KPH and for GTE vs GE.
