Configuring LCD functions on Medallion Guages

[billk2632]

My 2014 R5 has the Medallion speedo/tach with the LCD functions that you can toggle through for depth, trim angle, fuel info, water temp etc. You can also configure what functions are available on each of the gauges. What I have found is that even though you can enable the same function on both gauges (depth for example) it only works properly on one gauge.
I wanted to be able to have depth on one gauge and fuel onfo on the other. I enabled them on both gauges, however they only work on the speedo. On the tachometer gauge, the depth will always display 0 and the fuel info is only partial, it displays the GPH but the % remaining always reads 0. I get the same behavior for some of the other functions, water temp for example.

Anyone one else run into this?

Yep, I have the same issue. I am not the original owner of my 2014 A28. I have had it to the dealer and they tell me that is the way it is supposed to be? I can’t believe Cobalt would deliver a boat with only half the gauges working probably. Interested to see what other have to say.

So the Video is for Mercury / Smartcraft, are they made by Medallion also? I have seen where you can calibrate my gauges, but have not tried that.

Our 2016 A25 that we bought brand new had same issue, had my dealer call cobalt and they reported back that's just how it works. Really bothered me at first but after we started actually using the boat and I got things set up I didn't think about it so much. Our new R8S the fuel gauge isn't really a gauge at all but more of a very rough estimate.
