    16 gmc sierra 5.3 ect off

    Ive noticed after tuning my truck to simply turn off the afm . The ect on my gauge at idle goes over 210-215 on scanner it reads 199 any way to calibrate or fix this? I also installed a 192 thermostat today anything i need to do to accomidate that in the tune?

    Nope, the cluster is it's own animal. It will never read exactly what the coolant temp really is. Just watch it when the truck warms up. The coolant temp can be 130 degrees but the cluster is already well off the 160 degree line on the gauge.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
