you can also talk to ED from EQ Tuning on AIM. He knows that AP inside out. AP Guru that is! Good Luck, hopefully, we can get it figured out

Did these people have to send in their ECU's to Cobb?



Guess I'll need to start looking up ways to uninstall my ecu

It does sound like you may have to send the AP and ECU into Cobb, if this is the case and your stuck ECU less and in need of getting around give me a shout I have a spare ECU at the shop that will get you around while you wait.

to uninstall the ecu, pull back your carpet, unplug the ecu, remove like 6 10mm bolts and it comes irght now.

its HELLA easy.

even if you cant change your own oil you can do this!!

Ok...

So I talked to Cobb and they didn't mention anything about sending my ECU to them.

What they think is wrong is that my cable is old and I should try someone else's AP.

But actually, I got a map successfully flashed onto my car, but when I'd try to start it, it just kept cranking. So I tried to flash another map and I get the same error. But oddly enough, everytime there was an error and I unplugged the AP and tried to reinstall the map, it would just start where it left off... So if the map was at 10% when the error occured, it would start again at 10% and go onto 22%. So I don't know if that means anything. But.....



Does anyone in the Santa Cruz area have a Cobb AP cable to lend for a little bit?
