When I connect my laptop to the ecu to datalog all the info is wrong. At idle it is showing speed at 120-140 rpm at 7499 all the readings fluxuate, boost is shown at 25 and the car is not boosted. I pass the sanity test, rx and tx are correct(did both loopback test and hyperterminal echo). So that rules out the cable. What could be causing this.

 

Did you cut the J12 jumper in the ecu? You need to with Crome.

 

yup

 

38400 baud? Got the com port set right with no conflicts?

 

What Crome version are you using? 2.0 datalogging scripts won't work with Freelog without tooling:

crome 1.4.8 beta i used the older datalog rtp plug in though, got it from pgmfi, you know where i can dl an older version of crome though so i can try that anyways

 

I tried that, it's still doing the same.

 

Which data commands? Are they in the 2.0 thread?

 

well i dled the rpt datalog plug ins and it didnt work, but i just set my freelog settings like the ones that guy posted and it seems to be working
