Would anyone be so kind to invite me if they have a spare invite? :approve: Thanks if anyone does!

stone cold not been run for 2-3 hours....plus, I flashed it with the GroupN one just before those screenshots, so thats not the problem. Its just after I flashed it, it wouldnt start, then come to try and put it back with the backup, and it wont let me....fail!

No, as I dont think it was 'de-immobilised' software wise. Even if it was, I can just reflash the software that was on it (1.4 thing) when the RSTuner decides to work again... PLUS...it must still be 'de-immobilised', as the fuel pump primes on ignition...

meh, saving my callouts FTW lol..... ...Pump is priming on ignition, but I dont think its running when cranking (cant tell for certain though), sure thing is, it dosent want to run... Henk, if you see this....for some reason the VCI number in 'about' has changed from what it was earlier too :S

As said, fuel pump primes but I get nothing fireing up...I thought, oh, il restore my original ECU .rst (backup)....But now the software is saying 'Could not gain security access' blah blah again. So im stuck at the moment. I also tried flashing the OEM file from the site, A300_3504.rst....But...

Ok nevermind, I just realised what Henk was saying, me being stupid wrote the backup I had made of the ECU, back onto the ECU, so nothing had changed....doh. Anyway, I just flashed the 'Group N .rst' file onto the ECU, 'A300 35FF', as said earlier, and now the car wont start. The programming...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Im waiting for someone with RSTuner knowledge into files to reply in my other thread lol

All I need to know is: What .rst/.cal/file(s) do I need to write (ECU and/or CAL) to get the ECU back to 100% Standard 172 Ph1 (CB0M).... If anyone can tell me I might be getting somewhere lol :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project J even, oops typo ;)

Ive never understood this....my engine is Cb0m....i thought you could only put on the ones that match your engine code....Also, all the numbers before and after, what are they associated with? Also, write ecu/write cal, whats the difference?

How do you mean, I got the grp_n file off the site and flashed it with that? What do I need to program onto it?

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project K7P 700

I just flashed it with the A300_35FF (grp n) using 'Write CAL', and the limiter is still at 6k, cant really feel if its much different... As you can see the top one it flashed successfully, but I dont know what im looking for... Is it the .rst standard software I need to flash, using 'Write...

Nice, spotted these before on Vimeo, remember it well from when we went :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project *apparently* flashing the map dosent have anything to do with the immobiliser, but the software may have, two different things I think?! Ive sent an email back to the ECU clinic (contacted them earlier today), but i doubt anyone will admit flashing it...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project No idea....maybe when the immobiliser was removed at the ECU Clinic they flashed the wrong map onto it....beyond me!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Only time the ECU has been touched is at the ECU Clinic IIRC, doubt the previous owner of the car it was in wanted that map.... Just hoping if I flash it with the standard software/map the immobiliser stays away

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Well big thanks to Henk for checking the ECU software/Cal of my current ECU. Oh dear, how the hell has a 172 ECU ended up with a K7J software running on it (1.4 I think)!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project We decided not to risk mapping it via RST yet due to the immobiliser that has been removed from the ECU, it *may* wipe it off. Ive just sent henk a copy of my current ECU software, and cal file, and hes going to test it and see what we get back :)

How can I send this software to you? Backup the ECU or...? Dials are the valver items, and are just running off an output from the ECU, they have no interaction

Well ive just emailed the place that unlocked my ECU (ECU Clinic), to ask him what process he uses to remove the immobiliser (Software or Hardware)...if its hardware its probably safe to re-flash the unit's software, if not....well il go from there when I get an answer back

I dont even get to 6500rpm :( Could you possibly shed some light on if I flash the ECU with the latest software will I loose my 'unlocked' part of it, where I had the immobiliser removed?

Yep mate its 100% clear. The only thing I would want to know before I try putting a different software version on is how the Immobiliser system works on the ECU. As I dont want to cancel out the 'de-immobilised' part of the ECU, that was unlocked for £150.....that would be a waste of money..

Yeah ive got RSTuner, thats how I logged the data for the graphs. Ive just spotted there is the standard ECU calibration on the fastchip site for my engine code (CB0M)...So may be worth a try. I dont want to 'map' it, as I want to keep it on the standard map until its running perfectly...

Not tried, where is the base map available from? Surely there were different variations depending on specific ECU model etc, not just engine codes? Ruling out basic things has already been done (Its been like this for 3 weeks or more now, been trying to sort it for that long), the only thing...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project yeah we did...matteh dosent have this problem though... His revs to 6k cold, 6.6k when upto temp, so hes getting past 6k by quite a bit. He thinks this is down to him using a different coolant temperature sensor (K4M, 1.6 Item), and outputting a different...

Doesn't deteriorate no. Its just got a set limiter of 6000, where it acctually bounces like it would at 7200 or whatever. It doesnt struggle to get to 6000, drives fine and revs fine upto that, its just like thats the set limiter and it bounces off it there....

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Speed sensor outputs the exact same reading as the 172 Ph1 gearbox type (12v pulse every 0.2m)....ECU Unlocked yeah. 172 Ph1s dont take any readings from the ABS, that was only latter models. Its reading for speed comes from the box like a mk1 does... I...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Your throttle is FBW though, I noticed this on Ryans 182 and Tooneys 172, throttle position of 2.x on idle.....Ph1 cable throttle could work in a different way.... Il have a play with them now, cheers for getting them :)

Throttle cable all the way yes, throttle body isnt jammed, was cleaned and all good when I built the engine up... Will try CPS closer to the box, wires are untouched for that, only touched what I needed in the engine loom..
