Default Car is back together... won't start... just cranks and cranks...

Background: Autospeed Stage 3 fueling/ECU

It is throwing code:

18058 - Powertrain Data Bus: Missing Message from Instrument Cluster
P1650 - 35-00 - -

Any hints? I remember with AWE's kit you have to recode the instrument cluster, but I didn't hear of such a thing with the ASP kit. STFA to no avail.

There is a conspiracy that's trying to keep me from getting this thing running.

If you swapped from an A to an M-box you have to recode the cluster.

Default OK, so I set channel 60 to 1025, saved it, popped the ECU back in, cleared codes

and it still doesn't fire. Should I try waiting? Disconnecting the battery and reconnecting?

I can hear the fuel pump, so I know there's fuel pressure.

Default Watching final F1 practice....

If you turn the key to the one position, is the CE light on?

Default Does ASP convert the 2000's to Hitachi MAF?

If so, they are probably running '01 code in the early cars.

You will have to recode. This is all just speculation since I don't know 100% how they do things.
