well removing the j12 worked

but still what is the checksum? what does it do? whats the urpose of diabling it?

 

ECU checks the 'checksum' to make sure its running the proper code before starting up and giving the 'all clear' (no CELs)

When when you go in a change things, the checksum changes so you disable it so that the ECU doesnt freak it.

Thats a basic synopsis...geek boy TurboEF9 might have a better explanation :P

 

Just because Mr Parker calculates ---- out to 20 decimal places, does make him a geek.

TurboEdit for life nukka

 

hmm maybe thats why the car would give a solid cel after changing chips... would go away after the second start though.

it went:

change chip
turn key to ON
solid cel
turn key OFF
turn key ON
no cel

sound like the checksum thing? it hasnt done it with crome

 

so is that all the input about the new version? i downloaded it but haven't had time to mess with it yet.

anybody figure out the "runs fine with ostrich and like crap with chip" thing?

 

my ostrich runs superbly with 1.1.8

 

what about tunign on the ostrich and then burning a chip and it being differant like dave said above? i sthat just crome not liking certain chips or what?

 

Who knows...I havent had it happen in a while.

I have also heard that if you have the issue with an SST chip, burn it on an Amtel and there is no problem. I dont understand how that could possibly work...but someone posted it once so try it if you have that problem. if not, dont worry about it...its not like its a common issue or anything.

 

i think that was just bad burn stuff, i havent had any issues like that.

 

cool thanks
