I’ve had the Tune + kit for a bout a year now and it works great. When I originally purchased the kit the sensor that came with the original kit was dead on arrival. After some troubleshooting Adam sent me a new one. No issues whatsoever after that. If I am remembering correctly, install wasn’t bad either.

I guess the question for you is do you want a dedicated gauge or do you just want something you can pull up on the fly when you need it?

 

Thanks, that is one of the things I am tossing up on......

 

TUNE+ Bluetooth Ethanol Content Analyzer (ECA) Kit for 2013+ Ford Focus RS/ST (the sensor itself can be used for a gauge or the fuel-it setup, its just how you plug into the sensor and get out the data that is changed) So if later you decide would rather get a gauge, the sending wiring is all just one connector and running the setup of the gauge inside is very simple; just depends of the gauge how you would adapt. (I prefer it sleeper myself with the app as ethanol shouldn't change between fillups that much.) Ethanol Content Sensor w/ Harness (same sensor) is 100$ so if you want to make your own solution that's the start.

 

I've got the Tune+ bluetooth ethanol sensor and have been pretty happy with it.

I bought it used from another member and have had it for more than a year now with no issues. I was a bit hesitant to buy it since I was never a fan of wireless solutions for things like gauges, but I was even less of a fan of tacky F&F style gauges.

Since I don't usually run E30 regularly, it's nice to be able to just pull up my phone and check where I'm at before mixing and then leaving it on until the right mix has reached my engine and it's time for me to switch maps, then putting it out of sight until the next time I needed it. No additional clutter on my dash!

 

Awesome info from all, thanks!

 

So.....I've gone and purchased the Tune+ setup and just finished the install, it connects to the module etc etc the car is running.
But when I check the content guage on the app it comes up blank....

Is this what happend with yours
@l0stperfecti0n ?
Does anyone else have anything to add or any tips?
Its got me stumped.....

@Hank ?

I don't see a Bluetooth icon, is that on?

 

I've checked all connections power, ground etc and they are all fine.
Because if I disconnect either of them it says disconnected on the app itself....

 

If everything appears to be connected correctly, the only thing I can think of is the interface. Have you tried using another device?

What fuel do you have in your RS at the moment? I say that because if you are running ethanol free right now would it read "0" or "---"? I don't remember if it came with a manual or not. Maybe there's a troubleshooting section?

It reads "E0" when using non-ethanol fuel. I believe the "---" is only displayed when disconnected or there is no signal.

Maybe there's a troubleshooting section? I didn't find much online this morning regarding this issue other than checking the pins at the connector. But if it connects, that may not be the issue. I grounded mine below the fuse box at an existing ground. Tapped power in the fuse box. The yellow wire was cut back and tucked into the ECA harness.

 

It has e30 in it now.
Haven't tried another device as yet, will do that

 

This is the wiring, tapped from fuse box and grounded using the fuse box mount bolt. I've checked them both using a circuit tester with the light inside.
I've emailed Adam he says to check the module is 100% clicked into the sensor and double check wiring again, which I will do later today...I did do both of those last night but will do again anyway

 

I'd check that ground also.

 

Just checked wiring again see below

 

Definitely connecting to app via Bluetooth, but no reading....you can see Bluetooth icon

 

Checked module is seated on sensor properly too....its clicked on all the way and can't be pulled off the sensor.

 

Its doing my head in!

 

Hey all! I just installed the Tune+ ethanol sensor and it works well! However, my gas gauge now does not work. Its showing i have no fuel but I definitely have a half a tank of gas. Has anyone ran into this issue? Anyone have any idea where i should start?

 

If I remember correctly there's another wire coming from the device. Doesn't that have a scaled 0-5v DC output for ethonal. 0v = 0%, 5v = 100% ethonal.
