I really hate asking this because I know the answer is out there, I just can't find it. I've gone though all the threads I could but either over looked it or just plain failed.

Went to flash tephra Mod V7 on my 2003 USDM evo and it will not start. Reflash the stock map and it starts up. Is there anything other then the immobilizer that has to be changed?

Im tyring to use 96530706.


Thanks...

 

did u change the "immob. hex." as well?

 

The only thing I have changed was under Misc... Immobilizer... hex... AA40.

Is there something else I need to change as well?

I feel like such an idiot for asking this, but I have yet to find some kind of basic how to guide that starts from square one for doing this stuff.

 

It wont crank or it cranks and no start?

 

crank no start

 

I had this same problem when a buddy of mine loaded V7 into my ecu. I cant get a hold of him right now to ask him what the problem was.

 

Try to remove the base xml files and all other xml files from the rommetadata folder and save them to the desktop so you dont lose them. Only put the V7 xml in the rommetadata folder and reflash the car. You might have conflicting base files.

 

change the imo hex to one of the following that matches your car
enter it how its written
usdm
0x0040 for a 03'
0x0055 for a 04'
0x0058 for a 05'
0x004D for a and EDM
also check that you FAA bit .3 (in mines it labeled bit .2 but should be bit .3 ) enable immobilizer is set to " 0 "

if that doesnt work lmk

 

copy the 0xFFA bits over...

 

You have 3 things to alter to remove immo :

- Immobilizer
- Immobilizer Hex (depends on ecu type/year see above)
- FAA bit

 

is your car modded??

make sure to copy over your injector scaling/latencies if its not stock...

 

Ok, this is what im talking about. I know I am suppose to do this...I've read it. But unlike other things, there is zero mention on where this is copied from and added to. Do I do this through an XML editor or is it through ecu flash? Maybe its so simple that no mention is needed.... either way can you kick me in the right direction?

I don't know, maybe I missed some all important thread that shows where to start from. I'm an ASE master tech, BMW level 1 diag tech... so I'm not a total retard when it come to cars. Give me instructions and it will get done.

 

So am I. they don't teach You this stuff though. I'm still learning this stuff. If for some reason you can't get it Cody my buddy said he would hook you up. Lmk

 

bump i guess...

 

^ I think it would be helpful to post a screenshot of the settings you are using for the immob hex etc, you might get a better response.
