ecometer drain

I gave ecometer a call today (very helpful and courteous, I must say) and they told me that 9100s with the firmware version 4.05 is the problem version. Any other version seems fine, according to them. To check yours, unplug the bugger, start the car, plug 'er back in while holding the right button, release it and then the version number should be displayed. Mines going back tomorrow...or course it had to be 4.05.
Hope this helps and isn't a repeat of what's already been posted.

I returned mine as well;very fast turnaround (good thing-I felt lost without it!) and no problem since!

I'm running 4.51. For some reason, I thought you had to hold the left button down but it's the right. I didn't want to accidentally reset my avg MPG from holding down the right button but it didn't affect it.
