bigben143 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Posted September 28, 2014 Happy days so I am on the right path...just been out in the Scooby and seems I may have a underline issue...just took it to around 110mph on my private road and engine management light flashed a few times so I backed off pulled up and it stoped flashing and completely went off....I have a vt diagnostic reader plumbed in don't know how good it is...but I just tried to read for a fault code and there isn't 1 stored! It drove back fine but didn't go any were near 100. Any ideas ?
bigben143 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Posted September 28, 2014 ....... Facebook the god of all good reviews lol Will stick with jgm I think I am happy to do all the work my self but mapping is a different story and if Duncan is good then happy days.
Steveuk260.Esq Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 Bigben if you have a classic it could be a o2 sensor starting to ho. Had same issue on 2000 turbo. It will start appearing more and more often most of time under load. Leaves no codes in ecu. If its not classic. I have no idea.
quit Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Looks like he is the man , just done some research following my incident last night 530 for map inc license
bigben143 Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 apparently the ecu on my model isn't locked so no need for the license?, I don't understand how come no 1 has developed a way round this locked ecu problem, going by the VAG world all ecu's have some kind of coding just finding a way round it
Steveuk260.Esq Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 There is a way. Its called open map. It uses open source software and requires no license. It is not widely used. Yet.
quit Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Eculabs do it ,can buy the software and do it yourself
bigben143 Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 I would rather let the guys in there field deal with it, rather then having ago tbh. my moto pay cheap pay twice
