This is the newest/greatest? NICE
I don't see a link to it though.

 

WAT


there's a bug?

 

I know I seen that!! I don't know what its referring to.

 

Damn, too late. I wanted to ask them on their next release if they can put a user selectable setting to toggle between *C and *F. Should be easy and some of us have a hard time converting celcius in our heads.

 

Maybe it will fix my 0>1% TPS lean tip in.

 

I'm not really good at the convert either, but I know water boils at a 100, and room temperature is about 20-25. If anything is just acting weird I could spot it by that. Considering these guys mostly serve software to the domesticated world, I doubt we get any help because we still use the kings foot to measure distance.

 

Excellent.

 

stupid farenheit. 100 is "about body temperature"? 0 is the temperature of some icewater with ammonium chloride in it? what? why?

 

Nice. If that is what I think it is, I will be using that feature.

 

Damn smart people.

 

argh. the logging filename feature is still broken in the first few days of the month.

 

Ok, has anyone used this yet?

I just did. Flashed it with FlashitV1 and loaded my map like usual, start the car and notice its kinda weird (like the car is vibrating, but rpm are steady). Ok, no big deal I'll let it warm up and take it for a spin. Take it for a spin, go into boost, and...

FUEL CUT!
Wtf, I try it again. It starts cutting fuel and killing all power as soon as I get into boost. Then I look at the "gauges" window and ITS RUNNING ON OEM O2 SENSOR! WTF????

There is absolutely no serial communication between the adaptronic and my aem uego. I tweak with it for a good 20 minutes, nothing I do works. I get out and inspect all the connections: they're perfect.

I go home and reload the old firmware. Car starts right up, idles decent like before, and now my wbo2 is communicating with the Adap with no problems.

AM I DOING SOMETHING WRONG OR IS THIS A GLITCH/PROBLEM?

I thought it was something on my end til I flashed the old firmware back in and it worked fine again.

 

I noticed that as well. Analog tab is set to OEM NB sensor, LC-1 is selected in the special functions (?) tab. I'm just getting the car up and running, but AFR never went further than 14.5 -15.3, when the Innovate gauge was showing swings between 10.1 and 18.1.

 

Exactly. When I set my back up sensor to stock narrow band it reads just that: 14.2-15.5 and completely different from the aem. When I turn off the narrow band it doesn't read afr at all, while the aem gauge still does.

I'm pretty sure either something is fuxorzed with the new firmware or some settings changed disabling the wbo2 that we were not told about.

I'm back on the old firmware til this is figured out, since it works fine.

 

I'll send a message over to rob...

 

Reverted back to the old firmware, and still can't get a reading from the LC-1.

 

Just so you guys know Rob believes he has tracked down the problem in the firmware. He's temporarily removed the update and is now working to fix it.

 

I drove to work this morning with the new firmware installed - glad I brought the laptop along. No UEGO issues though.

 

Sorry guys
