any ideas on how to calibrate it successfully?. I see the majority of you like me found it impossible.

Couldn't get mine to calibrate after many tries. Lost my ordering material so can't send it back. Big waste of money. No more Roadpro product for me!!

I ended up returning it because even after I calibrated it the calibration would come undone whenever I started to go somewhere. I have a Garmim GPS instead.

Put it this way, we are on our 3rd one and probably going to send this one back, this one worked for about 3 months but the letter were not all there and RoadPro just said to send it back again. It was pretty much a waste of money.

Instead of driving the vehicle several times in a circle, I turn the unit several times with the blower on high speed, wiper motor on high to calibrate mine. Then once it locked on I then stuck it back down on it's Velcro pads.

I tried every way I could think of including using the directions. If you look at other compass they have specific instructions but this did not.

Hi Zitch I just look up the operating instructions on line and it does not indicate that you can calibrate this gauge. I have checked mine against a few manual gauges and it was very accurate. Hope this helps. Dave.

It's very simple. Contact the factory, ship it to them, they ship it back. If they can't calibrate it they replace it. Each meter has a calibration date specific to that model.

Hi Harold - there must be a defect then. I set mine for 345 and it stops at that - it will fluctuate a few degrees down when in use - but nothing major. I would contact them and have it replaced

The only answer to your question that I have is that I didn't have to calibrate mine, and it seems to work correctly. This is not a hi-tech compass. It's pretty cheap overall. But if you can't afford a good one, it works in a pinch. It sticks to your window wherever it is convenient for you.

I checked it with my other meter and it appears to be already calibrated. Both of my meters match.

Hi Alex,That does mean that it can be calibrated. We also have a video to walk you through the process see it here. http://youtu.be/uN5Xrm3CPEw

I don't think you can calibrate it. I haven't seen anything on the device or the app that lets you do it. Myself and 3 other people I know use it on a regular basis and have never had this issue. You might have a defective unit.

I did not calibrate it except to test against another thermometer. It was right on. No adjusting is possible to the reading.

I wish I could sincerely answer your question. This device has not been the best so far. Constant calibration and off results. I would suggest investing a little bit more money on a better scale.

Yeah you just have to calibrate it with your windows 7. Look it up on YouTube if you have to or google.

It self calibrated when I first set it up. I have moved it twice since then with no problems.

As far as I understand, you are unable to successfully calibrate these TVs as hidden menus accessible to professional calibrators aren't readily available to the general public.

Did you do the initial calibration? For the first use or anytime you move the scale you have to recalibrate it. Press down with you palm and let go and then the scale should show 0.0. Then wait for the zero to go away. Then try stepping on the scale. Also make sure you're on a hard (wood or linoleum) level surface. Hope this helps!

I would be wary of the accuracy, there are "dead spots". I ordered two of these and both of them had a "dead zone" of about 6 degrees (from 76F-82F) where it would show it was 76 until it suddenly spiked to 82.

Interesting question. You might try the Taylor site. My past experience has been that the calibration isn't correct if it is replaced. My friend upgraded to this unit when his failed. I will probably follow suit. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EHNH3JC/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

According to directions it is well calibrated before shipment and recommends recalibration cycle of one year. Directions tell you how to recalibrate. Seems to be working for me/
