New to TunerPro and have been reading tutorials here and you-tube.
Hoping this is the correct place to ask this.


Having issues copying the stock bin from my 16168625 PCM memcal with TunerPro and TunerCat.
Results are mixed in bin file sizes between TunerCat readings through the AutoProm, and the reading of the same chip through Craigs Flash & Burn.


Getting 32K bin size using Flash & Burn.
Then getting 64K with TunerCat, same chip?
Both read through Craigs AutoProm.


Same laptop, running Windows 8.


Having more experience with TunerCat, and thus more familiar with it.
But wanting to use TunerPro Registered version. It has much more information, and tuning parameters.


I read out the stock BHAS bin using Craig Moates HDR1 memcal header adapter and Craigs AutoProm and Flash & Burn software.
Choosing the chip size to (read only) 27C512 in the Flash & Burn software.


I can see by looking at other bin files here at this site that 64K looks to be the correct size for my PCM?


However loading the TunerCat read file 64K into TunerPro gives erroneous data, and the reveres is true using TunerCat software and the Flash & Burn 32K file in it?


So where did I turn left, instead of right??


Not wanting to let the smoke out of any of my chips!!!


Thank you,

Sorry, forgot to mention that using TunerPro and the bin read through AutoProm (32K) had all data and tables, flags, etc looking normal.
And TunerCat with the file read through it and the AutoProm (64K) all data looked normal there too.

Thank you,

TunerPro has the Flash and Burn built in as well. Tools, Hardware Utilities, Moates Prom I/O.

The problem your having is common. Your choosing the chip properly... hopefully... and trusting the offsets are changed properly? They are not. Look at this for proper Offsets:

Yes, That was it!!
So small of a change, so large the error!

Thank you so much!

So I have a quick question...

I am using $EE 16191333,16188051 XDF and $EE-Auto-V3, windows xp machine, ebay usb ALDL recommended on this site. Using it to connect to '95 LT1.

When I first installed TunerPro I was able to follow the guides and log some data however the data was glitchy:

Now I can't connect at all. If I try to connect with just the ignition on, I get data errors and the fuel pump relay will kick on for a split second every 4-5 seconds like the ECM is resetting or something. If I connect with the engine running, I just get the data errors?

Any where I can go to read more or fix this problem?

Thanks!

Not sure if this will help, there is a good tutorial for TunerPro RT and the 16188051. There are links to ADX files you will need for your $EE mask. Preset dashboards and settings. One for manual, and one for auto transmissions.

Does the vehicle start and run with the ALDL unplugged?
Which PCM are you trying to data log, and in what kind of vehicle?
