i understand, then the problem is that defintion it is in another folder maybe in evo folder, then search in rommdata the definition 88560021 and delete all, then save the correct definition in lancer folder

 

makes sense. Does ecuflash save anything in another folder besides the openecu folder?

 

no, everything in openecu folder

 

Same problem. Is it possible when I started screwing with the def file I messed it up on the car too? Either that or EcuFlash is still retaining memory some how...

 

I'm going to go and reset my ecu and see if that helps...

 

still happening... Maybe I'm not meant to be using it

 

do you try uninstall all and re install again?

 

like 6 times

 

it is not possible, i had the same trouble, and erase the bad definitions was the solution.

be sure to have only one ecuflash installed and delete all folder in rommdata and only leave the lancer folder with lanceratbase and your definition

 

ok i'll try again then

 

I've seen definitions show up in the "mitsubishi" directory above "lancer." Look there and remove any definitions that you may have created.

 

and then? in the end it worked?

 

Ok I got it to work on my XP machine but all the values are screwy... My car died on me while driving though Has anyone actually tried using EcuFlash while the car was on? I'm guessing it killed it...

 

You cannot use EcuFlash while the engine is running. You need the engine off and the key in the 'on' position. You can cause some serious damage if the engine is running and you flash your ECU.

 

^ I didnt flash anything though... I realize this now... I actually have not changed anything on the car's ecu yet... I'm trying to figure out how to use EcuFlash as far as what I should be setting the values to...
