Failed JB+ install...

Hisam135i · 12-05-2011, 04:16 PM

Yup, i managed to fail at one of the easiest tune installs.. when trying to get the clip up on the tmap sensor it managed to snap with the penny trick (which is apparently quite common as ive used the good ole

) but any way as soon as i got in my car after the install the half engine light came on lol yay.. took out the CANtool and apparently because the clip was not in place to hold the JB+ securely it was throwing a few codes, because the connector was loose ( those codes were 2ABC, 2f6c, 2f08). So i ended up uninstalling the JB+ and now when i try to read the codes this happens

any idea to whats going on? and i think my car is beginning to leak oil

taking it to the shop tomorrow just want some insight from you guys

Duct tape is your friend. Just buy another sensor clip and use tape in the mean time.

Wow I have never seen the speedo do a a complete sweep and hit the gas gauge. That's a pretty sick sweep. Something is wrong

i broke my clip as well first time but the connector NEVER got loose anyway. just secure it with some tape.

Looks like your CAN Tool is not set up properly. I'd recommend you check out the BMS website and read the instructional guide.....I remember seeing that the CAN Tool must be reconfigured is the gauges go nuts (as apparently is your case).

Here is what their website says:

Resetting the cluster:
If you attempt to read codes in the wrong gauge calibration mode your gauge needles may collide and throw off the calibration. To hard reboot the cluster unplug the CT, press and hold the button, and plug in while the button is depressed. The dash will go through a reset process and your gauges will recalibrate themselves.

Best of luck.

You have the CAN Tool in the wrong mode for your gauge. Review the PDF guide for it on BMS' site. If you need any addl help email them for support.
