Tach sweep is gone - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

After the mandatory ECU reflash, I no longer see the tach sweep after the ignition is turned on. Does anyone else notice this?

I thought only the brz did the tach sweep.

My FR-S used to perform the tach sweep, too. I'm 100% certain.

Now I only hear the beep.

Mine has never done the tach sweep.

I didn't do a ECU reflash, but yes mine does do the tach sweep

Car off, turn key to the position immediately before cranking it up*

Hit the ODO button a few times till you see "S OFF", hold the ODO button and it should change to "S ON".

*You may be able to do this without the key at all, I can't remember.

I think you have to have the shift light turned on for it to do it. It will sweep up to whatever RPM it's set to.

Read the manual folks...and do not put children into the washing machine(another manual tells you that).

I read this before, can anyone else vouch for this? I have my shift light set but my tach sweep still goes all the way.

Minor detail, just curious to learn about it.

FR-S sweeps to the RPM the shift light is set to while the BRZ does a full range sweep only...

I *knew* there was a reason I spent an extra few thousand bucks on my BRZ - I get the full instrument sweep on start-up.
