Got it. Also when was the beep coming in. Not a warmed up engine or fully warmed up engine and at what rpms. Are you sure its an engine warning horn. On the smartcraft gauage you can see the warning alarm symbol displayed ???

I would like to continue on this one - If correct on a smartcraft gauge SC 1000 you have the warning icon displayed with the fault reading of " Check Panel " exactly displayed in those words ??? Also you have a true warning horn on / off taking place from either a ECM 555 or a PCM 555 app - 2004 year model ???

Is this a DTS app or mechanical throttle & Shift ??

Is this a stock app with stock ECM 555 / PCM 555 ???

You said no faults and so I take it, no guardian mode either ? You have 100 % available power correct ?

Has anything has been added or added into the smartcraft set up ? additional sensor(s) or paddle wheel / temp and so on ???

If "Check Panel " is displayed and a real fault - this is a very rare one. Or least I have not seen it if I recall correctly .

Possible might have to go through and reset up the smartcraft / gauges like the very begining.

Are these newer smartcraft gauges installed since 2004 and or a very current install of new smartcraft gauges ?
