J2534 on PCH, log below. Finally getting somewhere I think:

OK, did that. Found the updater and it did a firmware update and then confirmed that it was up to date.
Logger now appears to connect on J2534 (Device initiation complete) but not on com3 or BT. No...

In logger it says "32534 client: Device initialization fail.
IN PCH if I say OK without running test it tells me an update for the OBDX Pro scantool is required so I went to the update download site...

The OBDXPro GT.
About the battery charger, I have a 12v battery in the simulator. I switch on the battery charger to charge it up. I can switch on either or both so it's easy to run on just the...

When I open PCH with the OBDX plugged in it tells me it found the OBDX on com3, serial port is selected, and it says the device is initialized and ready. However, Test doesn't work, access to com3...

Sorry to take so long getting back to this, my hard drive crashed and I had to basically start over and it's taken me awhile to find this thread. Present status is that I do have the OBDXPRO in hand,...

Thanks. I'll look into it. I have a pretty good tune currently, it's evolved a pretty long ways from the basic generic gen-IV file but I need to get those pesky transients under control. Not bad when...

Thanks. Since both you and Scott endorsed the obdxpro I ordered the GT. Personally I think the expense is a bit much but if it allows me to tune out the transients it will be worth it. I'm hoping the...

Yeah I did that and the blue led starts flashing fast to indicate it is trying to connect but it never shows up. I'm pretty sure it is FUBAR at this point. These have gotten pretty expensive, I would...

It seems my OBD Link has lost it's mind. Blue light flashes but it doesn't seem to send out a signal. Neither my laptop or phone can detect it. Not exactly a robust bluetooth connection there. So......

Anybody got a good link to set up the OBD Link LX101?
Jim

Great! I already have that on my laptop, and just installed the latest version. Just have to learn how to use it again. I hope to load my latest tune from HPT and go from there. I'll check out the...

Thanks for that, I guess I will have to sort out where to find this throttle stomp compensation. Been using the HPT VCM Editor and I have never seen anything like that in that app. Can I assume you...

Anyone here know how to tune transients in the '411 ecm? I've been using HPT and it may be a bit lacking in that area.

Jim

Slowly creeping up on it. It's got this thing right now where it idles down to 800 but then when I start driving it the idle stays up around 1300. I need to sort out what is causing that. I think it...

OK I'll do that.

What I'm seeing for AFR Commanded ranges between 13.2 and 13.7 which seems rich to me. My measured AFR is running 12.2 to 13.5 mostly, with an offset generally under 1.5 and this...

OK thanks. So do I need to zero out the PE tables to work on the rest of the VE table?

Jim

Hey guys. Thought you'd want to know the outcome. To make it short, a self inflicted wound of course. Be careful and methodical when turning off error messages. Turn off the wrong ones and (so I've...

Service Engine Soon and Malfunction Indicator Light. What is the difference? They have separate switches to enable and disable them in software, on a stock dash they have separate lights. On the...

OK I'll try that tomorrow. Having some fun with the MAP and AFR traces and trying to sort those out which I really need before doing much more but at least maybe I can get the idle steady. The AFR...

Good idea. That sounds like just the sort of thing that might do the trick. At present the advance is rock steady at idle. I'm not seeing any evidence of misfire and the surge is too consistent and...

I have an oscillation cycle that is about 2 seconds long.
I've made minor and major changes to the idle PID settings to see if the IAC could control it but it may not be capable of it as it is too...

Good call. Not real sure what exactly that PID was, it was the only MAP channel labeled as 2 bar. However once I activated the SAE and voltage channels I got a better picture of what was going on. I...

That's part of the oddness. Baro should be somewhere around 99 at 600ft above sea level where I am, though I don't know where to look for that reading (any suggestion?) KOEO the MAP reads zero until...

I think the datalog is going to be usable but the extension is not an acceptable file type here. I seem to recall there was a way to still post it but I forget, something about changing the extension...
