Pfc Problem

[car32]

just noticed this on a mates car,it is mapped and runs ok except for hunting on idle.looked at the comander display and everythin is working ok sensors and moniter all perfect.

the ignoition map reads 0 in all boxes and the fuel map has 50 in all boxes,also injector correction is on 0% and same for the injector lag time.how can this be running without any probs??

I'd guess the map's been locked by the tuner; tuners do this for many reasons but most often to

prevent Australians from 'f%^king around with the settings' (this is a bad Windaz reference )

I think to fix this you either need an FC-datalogit or the Apexi software+cable; don't know

of a ready way to unprotect the map just with the HC alone.

covered in the powerfc faq (site is down however)

the tune on the powerfc is locked you need to unlock it

you either need;

access to datalogit

access to power excel

some workshops have it so youll need to find one that has either of those

failing that you can buy datalogit yourself to unlock it, perhaps try gtrcouk and see if anyone local has datalogit to unlock it for you

thanks for that,got data logit and will have a look and will call the company who mapped it for the password.

thanks again
