Default Results

034 - waited until egt was above 260, still won't run test
070 - still won't run
107 - don't kow as i just reset everything
So, do you think it's software related?

Default Sorry to disagree Uwe

I do disable some readiness checks and all this does is that the readiness tests for the given checks I disable get "passed" immediately after power-on. i.e. you clear codes and check readiness and the disabled checks show up as "passed" straight away.

Default Uwe, one last question. Is there any other way this problem is NOT tuner related?

If I'm not getting any DTC's, and the test won't run manually, what else could cause this? I just want to know which route to take next as my inspection is due this month so I need to get this fixed. Thanks

Default Are all the tuners smart enough to do it that way? ;-)

And is PaJohn using your software?

Default I can't think of any reason, but

I don't claim to know everything...;-)

In principle, when forcing the tests via the sequence in the repair manual (and all the conditions are met) the relevant bit should either set or a fault code should be set indicating why the bit didn't set.

Now lets deal with the practical aspects of this: In PA, you're allowed to have *some* readiness bits showing not passed and still pass inspection. The question is how many and which ones. This I'm not 100% sure of.

Default Hehe, fair enough Uwe, however...

I do know whose software PaJohn is using and I know what they know and how they do it....

Hey, say hi to Eric on my behalf please

Cheers,

Mihnea

Default For the archives, it was in the code. All fixed now, although I couldn't get the

O2's to pass using the manual procedure. They reset after a short drive. Thanks all.

Default

Just to be 100% clear, "the code" means your "chip" right?
