Aeroforce Interceptor Not Working

[TheAce144]

Hello, I recently bought an Aeroforce Interceptor scan gauge from zzperformance.com. I have an 04 Grand Prix GTP and therefore ordered the PT version (PT 401 V2.8).

In scan mode, screen turns black after 2-3 seconds. When I touch the buttons, lights blink red. So basically it's not a power issue.

I searched on forums but haven't found my answer. It is plugged to the OBDII only and the jumper is still on. I haven't used the optional 3 wire harness. I also selected limited parameters, (RPM and MPG), in case some were not compatible, and still shuts down when putting it in scan mode.

I would really appreciate some help with this issue.

Thanks for your time.

you need to use that 3 wire harness, the aero needs a constant 12v power source.

Since you have an 04 you can use a jumper, meaning a jumper from a computer motherboard. You can get them for free at most computer stores. I got mine from the geek squad at best buy. Draws the power directly from the obd port.

There is already the stock red jumper that came with it...I need to change it? I don't get it sorry

Not in the 04 Grand Prix, it's supposed to be plug and play...

Aeroforce replied to the email I sent them and attached a return form...they won't charge me for repair right? I bought it August 17th...

they shouldnt, if you just bought it, they will give you a brand new most likely.
