BWR ECU Flash problem - LotusTalk

Orangeelise · 04-11-2009, 08:00 AM

I had a problem with one of my o2 senser and resent my ecu with a 0bd2 sensor and my car will not start. I have the pes tune reflash bwr supercharger. All i can think is i messed up the flash when i reset on the scanner. Please help ?

Will not start meaning? Doesn't turn over, getting clicking sound, nothing happening at all, etc?

It cranks but never turns over. I don't know maybe some of the flash got messed up

that's what seems to me. I had a US flash onto a EU ECU and car didn't turn over either. All was fine when EU tune was flashed on EU ECU. So based on that experience i'd say someting up with your tune.

Haven't seen this in over 100 kits on the road. I am curious to know what's up with the scan tool as well. Worst-case we can re-flash it.

thanks. it was not the ecu. I went back and checked the spark not spark but i could smell fuel. That made no sense to me that it was the ecu. So i checked all the wiring and it ended up being the ignition coil fuses.

Awesome! Maybe the scan tool has the "blow random fuse" option?

Glad you got it sorted.

check your ground screw on the body and on the engine, just in case.
