Help - V3 install

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 11:22 AM

Hi guys!

I'm installing V3 in my car right now and have a problem with my PnP wire. One cable to the relay was hanging loose when I recieved my kit. Where should this cable be connected?

Thanks
/Tobias

Top right in that image. Use some pliers to crimp the female terminal some so it has a tighter fit.

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 04:26 PM

Thanks Scalbert

Now I have real problems...this is my situation:

My car runs perfect with bypass plugs.

I have tried Stage 0 non doomsday and Stage 0 doomsday, both limp at 10 PSI. The same thing happens with V3 beta map Stage 0. I get "half engine" light.

I still se 7 PSI with LIMP.

I bought a code reader but it doesn't seem to work; it says LAUNCH and count up to five with a paus between 3 and 4. Then it shows E and nothing more.

What can be wrong guys, all input is welcome as I'm at a guys place 200 miles from home...

BR

Hi lawdude!

I have always uploaded the maps and firmware in the ZIP folders. Is it done when it says 100% and restarts?

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 05:00 PM

I can email my log file if someone knows how to upload it?

e90AW335i · 07-14-2008, 05:08 PM

When you load a map do you go to file -> open, or file -> load file?

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 05:16 PM

Hi Kyle!

I use open file.

rooster3.0 · 07-14-2008, 05:21 PM

It's load file. It will say %map loading on the bottom.

No, Tobias has it correct. You just click file -> open and select the file.

Tobias, read this link and make sure you are doing everything correctly.

I had a similar problem when i was beta testing, the firmware upload failed.
It took me a long time to find out,try to upload the firmware again

cwn23 · 07-14-2008, 05:34 PM

I would agree that it might be the firmware or map thats creating this problem based on the bypass plugs working!

I've only used load file since V1 and never had a problem. I guess there's two ways.

This latest firmware wouldn't load for me either. It took a few tries.

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 05:43 PM

Thanks for the great support guys, what a community!

I have firmware Series No. 103 Version Info 226. How can I see the name of my map just to confirm it is correct?

I never reach above 11 PSI on my RiX effects boost gauge.

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 05:46 PM

Kyle,

I have followed the instructions on the Vishnu site. The strange thing is that my car behaves the same on all maps and firmwares.

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 05:48 PM

Hej Per,

Detta är ett helvete, jag som är så körsugen! Kul att se dig senast!

cwn23 · 07-14-2008, 05:58 PM

Did you have V2 prior to this upgrade? If you went from V1 to V3 check solenoids because they should be back to stock!

What do u mean u never reach above 11 psi...does it mean that the car is working now? V3 working you should see about 11-13 psi in low rpms and 13-14 in higher rpms 5500 and tapers to 10 at redline with the high boost map

per · 07-14-2008, 06:00 PM

Den som väntar... check your power supply , a misstake there could also cause such a problem that you are describing

Bone stock I saw a maximum of 9 PSI, the maximum I have reached with V3 is 11 PSI before LIMP. The car does not really boost up as expected on any RPM.

Tobias1980 · 07-14-2008, 06:28 PM

I just did a few runs again, my car does never boost up above 10-11 PSI on any RPM. I also remowed the remote switch and it did no difference at all.
