Car won't start and is not responding

Leesin · 11-03-2014, 05:49 PM

Hi, I've had the cobb tune on my car for a while now, with no problems. Today, I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it. After trying to turn it on, it started giving me "artifacts"/scribbled vertical lines on the screen. It also made the igniting noise when I tried to turn it on (but did not actually turn on). So I tried to uninstall the cobb (left it and went inside the house) but when I came back the cobb was off. Now the car is in my garage and not responding to anything I do. The hazard light (no sound) is flashing as well as several other lights. The car is still on (not engine tho) so I can't take out the key.

2009 n54 335i with no mods. I had the stage 1 sport map on.

HELP

I don't know much about COBB, but I think it's fair to assume something went wrong in the flashing process. Maybe Ken or BuraQ from Wedge can chime in since they're extremely knowledgable on the AP.

It sounds like the write file never was successful. Have you tried calling COBB directly?

No, I haven't, but will definitely do. Thanks

I'd hookup a battery charger to make sure you're not losing voltage causing the writing failure as well.
