ok so i have the 1.3b cable and went back to v1.29a of ecu flash and i keep getting the error:


any ideas? and also does anyone have a GOOD version of 1.42 because i keep getting errors from downloading it from the openecu site.

You got PM.

 

^^^

got it. do you have to swap pins 8 and 22 to get it to read the rom or can you just leave the pins as is in the connector and read it that way?


josh

 

Ok senate so whats up with the annoying P0069 code that pops up everytime I flash my evo ecu any way to get rid of that?

 

ok so i got it to read the rom finally. whats he best program to use to edit the .xml file?

josh

 

The P0069 code is typically an indication of a bad MAF or bad MAP sensor. You can disable it via the periphery bits. However disabling it wouldn't be a good idea if there is actually a problem with one sensor or the other.

 

Microsoft wordpad works great for me

 

I use Notepad++, but any basic code editor would serve the same purpose.

 

Oh crap don't know why I was thinking the cel was a common problem when flashing these Ecus sorry. Crap looks like I will have to reinstall my stock ecu and see if the code trips again. If so then I will contact who I bought the maf from and tell him its a dud

 

kinda off the wall but will the evo 8 ecu work on a 1g talon/eclispe? a buddy of mine just got his 1g n/a swapped with a turbo'd 4g63. i had mentioned using an 8 ECU but wasnt sure if it would work.

 

it should i would think. some guys have done it to the 2g eclipses.

Ok so I have found through various tests that my ecu is what is tripping the code and all my sensors including my new maf is fine. Anyone know if the 05 evo8 has different map settings than the 03 or 04? Couldnt really find much in the ecuflash forums although not sure how to word it either.

 

plugged everything in today, flashed the ecu to the corrected settings for the injectors and the stuff senate posted on the first post here inthis thread and the car will not start? any ideas? did i miss something?


im running wrx 440's and the 399 maf from the evo.


josh

 

nvm i figured it out. i didnt swap pins 8 and 22.


guess thats what i get for only having 2 hours of sleep then working for another 8 and going then to work on the car.

my bad

Glad you got it squared away. The pin swap is critical as your fuel pump won't turn on if they aren't swapped.
