Default Greddy boost gauge stuck

Got in my car yesterday and started her up, I immediately noticed my GReddy 52mm boost gauge was stuck past 2.0 bar. The car drove fine and once I hit boost, the gauge popped back and was fine...until I turned my car off. Now it's stuck past 2 bar and won't pop back. Anyone else had this problem?

I'm calling the GReddy tech line once they open, but i thought someone might have an easy fix? I checked all the connections, and all seem fine.

well being a greddy dealer i will tell you that their customer service isnt good at all. they will most likly tell you to send it back through the shop you purchased it from to see if they will warranty the gauge. and be ready to wait.

I don't know if your gauge in question is electronic or mechanical... but if it's electronic I know there are a way to reset them. I can't help you with manual -- It just must have **** the bed.

Yeah, it's the electronic one..has the small sensor sender unit...it's less than a year old and 6 months of that, my car was off the road. I'm still trying to remember where I bought it from, I KNEW i should have bought it locally

Can you tell me how to reset the electronic boost gauge or you just heard it can be done? I have the same problem.

The positive and negative wires aren't touching or loose?

Ok, fixed it. Wired it wrong. Just shook the crap out of the gauge and the needle popped back.

Does it correct itself once you hit boost? If not, it might have **** the bed.

For me, it was simply a matter of rewiring it. I originally had the red power wire connected with the orange ignition wire, but once I ran the red wire to a constant 12V source it was fine.

You can get the manual here if needed. http://www.greddy.com/img/PHP/products/pdf/702.pdf
