I did start a ticket and luckily I’m off Monday to call, but was hoping because truck is 18 years old someone would have the answer from previous experience by now. Thanks.
I did and the threads that came up were about trouble codes. Mine doesn’t get that far. I’m assuming there’s more fuses to pull or possibly connecting a lap top to it. I didn’t see a thread about autocal being stuck where I’m at. It’s light out again so I’m going to go try again. It would be nice if you could hook up a laptop and see if the system was silent.
Any last ideas before I give up? I have over 10 fuses out of both boxes from reading different threads and my radio on the floor... super frustrating and don’t want to do this every time I need an adjustment made...
Ok so connected computer to try and see what’s “not” happening. It says 0531 code controller device mismatch. Is this something I can fix on the computer or have to talk to ppei?
Have you updated your AutoCal, just because it’s new doesn’t necessarily mean it has the correct current update, https://www.efilive.com/download-efilive
You’ll need EFILive V7.5 and V8 explorer scan and tune on your computer.
This only works on Windows, also it’d be a good idea to put a battery charger on before you start loading your tunes.
I don’t have 5 dsp but there is a certain way you load the EFI tunes.
Several EFI tuners has videos and info on loading tunes on the internet.
Good Catch Dan, it has been so long since I did mine I didn't recall having to update the software on the Autocal.
The other item is to attach a battery charger to your batteries when you begin the process. Low voltage can cause you some REAL problems during the loading of the tunes!
All that is done. Sucks cause I wanted to play with it this weekend but I have plenty of other projects to do until I can get ahold of ppei on Monday.
