What am I doing wrong? I thought it was plug and play? Every time I try to tune, it seems as if it just won't communicate. But all of the gauges work fine!

is the cigarette lighter working? I think it has something to do with the obd port being on the same fuse. p1000 is needs more driving for the monitors to set

If it were the fuse, wouldn't the Evolution not work completely?

Gets its power and data through the OBDII port, everything about it works except the actual tuning portion. It'll read everything and show all the gauges, but won't put a tune in.

Well, I called tech support, they said try it on another vehicle, worked fine on mom's 07 Yukon. If I can't get this thing to work, I'm gonna try to swap it for the evolution monitor and get them to refund the remainder. I can't think of where to start with it.

They offered to trade my CTS for an SCT Livewire TS because of my troubles. Kudos to Power Hungry Performance for having awesome customer service

I mean, the post that said "How do I delete posts" was a duplicate
