Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I want to make a stock file before I flash my infamous tune. But I can't get ecuflash to read. When I press the read button I just get a blank box with the read button disabled and the cancel button enabled. I've got the tactrix 2.0 cable and v1.42.2595 and 333 rom metadata files Anything? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 In this box is this where the list of cars is suppose to be? How do you get the list of cars to show up in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Weird...I assume you have the green connectors connected right? Maybe you should install the latest ecu flash version? The list should be populated automatically... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 I've tried with and without green connectors. I installed and reinstalled, v1.42 is the latest version isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Do this uninstall both tactrix openport drivers and ecuflash. Reinstall tactrix drivers, then ecuflash and when it pops up Install openport drivers click cancel. click finish after that and reboot. plug green connectors (both of them, drivers side and pass side), plug tactrix to obd2 port and to computer, open up ecuflash and try again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNVAR Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hmm, I had this problem before, but forgot how I fixed it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Does the Tactrix connect via RR? In otherwords, can you log? You might just have a driver issue with the cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 At first ecu flash wouldn't do anything cus I canceled windows updating the drivers when I installed it the first time then when I reloaded it I let it update drivers and it let me see the read button. When I loaded the infamous tune it enabled all the buttons and even compared the files. But I can not get anything in the read window. I thought I was putting files in the wrong folder or something. I will try any advice given tonight when I get home, spent 4 hours on it last night so my ambition is running low. Do both green connectors need to be hooked up, our just the passenger side?

Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 I haven't played with rr much yet. I'll put that on the list too. Thanks alot guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Quick question After you add the mods and before you tune, ar you suppose to do some light driving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 dont romp on it, try to keep it under 3k rpms and out of boost until you're tuned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Is this something that should be done for lv shot. Cus the first lv I did showed zeros every where, except in the upper right it said .5 Then I ran it till it earned up to check for leaks and so forth. The it gave a couple numbers in the first two boxes in the g/s areas. So I'm winding if I should (under 3k) drive it a bit. Then do a lv shot, our doesn't it matter?

bmx045 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 well a lv pre-tune doesn't hurt. if your IAM in the top right corner was .5 when stock, that is bad. real bad. you should probably fix that before even thinking about tuning for performance.

Ktmking250 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Ok, I think I will go home and posted that lv and see what everyone thinks. In quick simple terms what does that mean? Keeping in mind I might not have the tactrix cable and software configured right yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 it means your car is knocking a LOT, could be many causes, low compression, excessive blow-by, car running really lean. we will see once you post it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 or it could be bad fuel or low load knock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
