Mine idles at 2000 but when I start driving it decides to work normal . Its not even a year old yet.
It's a ground prob I have had 2 probs and 2 new cts and they all still do the same thing if I just have my key on to run with the cts on and I roll my window down it spikes to 2000 same as if I am driving down the road and hit my brakes it does the same but if I am just driving it works fine kinda sucks but I have just felt with it edge has the best customer service I have ever felt with hope may e this will help some of you guys out
I'm betting it's a bad probe. Seen it a few times. Seems to be hit or miss, depending on the manufacturer of the probe. And Edge doesn't deny it at all, so they know what's up. When these things act up, they aren't linear at all. It's BAM, 2000 degrees, right out of nowhere. When it happens, you know right away that it isn't possibly correct.
But the hair on the back of your neck stands straight up anyways.....:rofl:

The one I changed the other day would say it was only 100* while cruising at 60mph and as sson as he would accelerate it would spike to 2000
My edge probe died after 5000 miles. Put my original autometer probe back in and its been good for over 20,000 miles so far.
worlds worst troll..........
I could use a piece of paper to check to see if the valves are leaking by holding it against the exhaust tip with the engine running. UTI kid says it works!
I'm on my 3rd EGT probe. I will be yarding that P.O.S and going back to a 3 gauge pillar setup. I actually like the CTS a lot itself, and might leave it, but I am done with trying to use it to monitor EGTs

I am gonna guess someone has told you that before? My god, some peoples kids
yup. kid from UTI went on to explain to me how doing this method on a suzuki samurai will tell you if the valves are bad cause the motor will suck air back in as the piston goes down so the piece of paper will be sucked into the exhaust when it does this.
I had to take him back to engine basics 101, draw pictures, speak very slowly, and tell him "good job" many times when he finally started understanding things. i wish i was kidding but im not. ill see if i can find the old thread. ill have to copy it over as the board im on is private to only suzuki guys in AZ.
