did you get it used? There is a setting on the vafcII to password protect the parameters so nobody can change them. I don't know if this would cause your problem, but you might look into it if it applies to you.

Are you 100% sure it is hooked up right? Sounds like you have the power wire hooked up wrong?

I went by the intructions and pinout on the diagrams. I bought the thing from someone else but it was still in the box and it was never hooked up. It is not the vafc ll . Just the regular one. Would it make a difference
if i hook it up (powerwise) another way other than by using the ecu power wire. Thanks again ???

are you going to "initialize" in the etc. menu? if you are then don't because that erases the settings. i set mine up twice before i realized that initialize means erase. go figure ::)
