I (and I think several others here) have the 5709 Phantom FP guage. I've sent an email asking about what the recall procedure is...replace, fix, etc. No response yet.

 

i forgot which one i have

 

If it's the short sweep electrical guage, I think thats one of the recalled ones.

 

Do they have serial/model ID's on the back or anything? Maybe that would tell you.

ok this gives me an excuse to buy a real expensive one

 

That's what I'm thinking. Full Sweep, here I come!

 

I just got off the phone with AutoMeter (the number is at the bottom of the link above). They said the problem is possible leakage from the sender unit. They got my info. and gave me a # (i suspect it will correspond to ea person individually) and said to ship it back to them and they would send out a new one. Problem is that they can't say at all what the turn around time is. Will probably ship out ASAP to see if they can return it, can't really run N2O w/o.

Just keeping you guys up to speed. Thanks for initial post.

 

dammit...just another thing I have to worry about with my car.....I really wish I had the cash for a full sweep gauge...grrrrrrrrrrrr

 

I got the full sweep!!!! Thank god I didn't go cheap this one time lol. Sorry to hear the bad news guys.

 

what's the price diff between full and half?

 

Double the price.

 

Man, this sucks....

 

Thanks man, I am gonna check Wednesday when i have time to take apart my box.

I just spoke to Autometer and they said if you send them your short sweep (with out the sender) they will send you a full sweep in return with a new sender. Not bad...

 

Sweet. I still need to send my extra one in... Do you have to request the full sweep, or do they just send you one?

 

just spoke with Janet.. sending mine back monday

thanks for the info

 

Mtrai, let me buy your other one from you...PLEASE.
