Defi owners: Question about Warning Settings for DEFI BF guages..

Well all my instructions are in Japanese and I don't know enough to make them out. Anyway I am wondering how to save my warning settings. Because every time I come back to my car they have reset. It beeps everytime I go over 15 psi and beeps when I'm at idle because of the oil press warning

Anyway do I have to set them everytime I get in the car???

And how do I set up the warm up mode for the VSD???

Sorry lots of questions i'm a defi noob...

this might help. or try this

its not normal that it resets every time... normally after you change the warning level, if you leave it alone until it does not blink anymore, its set

No idea what the warm up mode is...

Sounds like you didn't tap a constant hot wire. The control unit needs a constant hot in order to keep the settings and playback.

Your wiring is hooked up wrong redo it. The wire that is supposed to go to Constant Battery + is hooked up to a Switched power source.

OK this is really weird still.....my VSD remembers the setting, but my DEFI CU does not.....I dont see how this is possible because the CU gets power from the VSD....they share the same power source.....so I am confused as all hell right now
