need help please evo won't start aem v1 😡
 
hello my name is Brian. i have an evo 8 with aem v1. I drove the evo for 3 days in a row. fri,sat and sunday. i let it sit for 3 days and it has a mini battery so i had to jump started. it started and died within 3 to 5 seconds, try it again and same thing. then i try to give it gas and it will just turn off. i tried it again and now the car cranks and cranks. i have good fuel pressure (gauge says 60). i check for spark and no spark at all. i check all the fuses and nothing is blown. please delete if thread not allowed, im just frustrated i been babying her and she wasn't making any noises at all but now wont start now. thank you for your help. i have search everywhere and could not come up with anything

Hook it up to a laptop and check for STATSYNC. If it does not sync you might have a bad cam/crank sensor. If you cannot connect at all, eeprom could have loosened up, might need to reseat it. AEM no longer supports the series 1 units so if it is a computer problem it could be special to get it resolved.


Try to unplug the ECU and plug it back in. Also check all the relays to make sure they are working.
