Xplocivic Ecu Troubles, Need Help ASAP!!
 

Hi guys,
I recently bought xplocivic's car and upon buying it he told me to send it to xencron for chipping. When i got it back i installed it and now my car wont start. It turns over but the engine doesnt work. Also with the chipped ecu plugged in, the check engine light is always on. When i put the stock ecu back in its having the same problems and wont start. Im at a lose here and dont know wtf to do. I've email xenocron and havent heard back yet, is there anything you guys can do for me? thanks for your time and i apriciate any help

Do you still have the stock injectors installed? What specs did you give xenocron to make you a basemap?

Re: Xplocivic Ecu Troubles, Need Help ASAP!!
 

No i have dsm 450cc, i gave him all the specs for what i ahve done to it. Im throwing a code 21 on my cel.

code 21 - VTEC loves you

yeah well now that it loves me (sigh) how can i fix it? vtec solenoid issue but what? wires and plugs seem ok, any suggestions?

Re: Xplocivic Ecu Troubles, Need Help ASAP!!
 

he could have just forgot to check/uncheck the VTEC box :-\, i've done that before :-[. not a big deal, actually it is kinda easy to forget when importing tables into p30 base code for a non vtec or the other way around.

True but a cel for vtec will not keep the car from starting. Theres got to be something else wrong with it. Was it running when you first purchased it?

How about contacting Chris first insted of making a post.

Welp...I'm gonna bet the VAFC curse has struck again.

We've exchanged a few emails...we'll get it fingered out O0

Re: Xplocivic Ecu Troubles, Need Help ASAP!!
 

Yeah, im gonna try tm (sunday) to uninstall the vafc completely from my system and see what happens. Hopefully the car will start.


"BoosTedZSix True but a cel for vtec will not keep the car from starting. Theres got to be something else wrong with it. Was it running when you first purchased it?" Answer is yes, the car has been running ever since i purchased it and moments before i installed the ecu

"CSaddict How about contacting Chris first insted of making a post." Answer, been incontact with him through email

thanks for the help so far everyone, hopefully i can have my car up and running again before work on monday! ;)

ok i got the car running and everything so far is good, idle settled down, sounds nicer and runs better in low rpms, but now when trying to boost my normal 8-10psi i run into issues. the car sputters at around 5,000 rpm at 7lbs of boost. so right when my vtec enables the engine goes to hell. like i stated the car sputters, almost like its not getting enough gas. So i've tried turning up my fpr to pump more fuel into the system and that isnt helping. also to note, my air fuel ration gauage stopped working...? any advice?
