DTAForum.com - a forum for the DTA ECU

I tried a few more times but could not get it to connect. So off it went to Alex and the team at DTAFast for a firmware update and test. It just had really really old software. It is all done and back on the car within a few days, I carried out the function test today, this time with no problems and...

I have seen to much crankshaft end float cause crank sensor problems under load only, bit of a long shot in your case without much info but an easy check.

I had to disconnect the fuel pump because the function test kept firing the injectors, also have coils disconnected and spark plugs removed for fuel to evaporate. I will never forget when first fitting the ECU and testing injectors and then coils, it is not a good idea. Saying that though my fuel pu...

I have these leads but cannot connect. http://rovervitesse.com/IMG5503%20900px.jpg My ECU is mounted behind the dash and not easy to get to. Initially I tried through the box lead as an extension so it was easy to operate the switch and ignition together but after 30 mins gave up in case the box was...

It is ok got it

"S Series Flash Programmer Instructions"

and

"S60 Firmware v89.00"

from the downloads page http://www.dtafast.co.uk/downloads/

Do you have a link to the procedure for installing the latest version?

Pretty sure I have the necessary leads

Is there any risk of disturbing the installed map when updating?

Thanks

ECU:-S60V19.03

The ECU was mapped about 2006 so that would be the last opportunity for it to be updated, I expect it is out of date and could well be the problem. It was a long time ago I fitted it, it has been 100% reliable and not had any reason to touch it since so I am a bit rusty with all the systems, the las...

Pretty much the same with the scope open, nothing recorded on the scope. Im logged in with laptop for this message, cannot upload pics from here. Scope opened, set to gather Then I opened Funtions window, coil test is already ticked. Clicked start button, nothing on scope. Once the start button has ...

ok I will try this afternoon. Is it correct that the coils test box is ticked when opening the functions test? I reinstalled the DTASwin for windows 7,8 and 10 again on my laptop just in case. Working offline I go into the functions tests and it is the same as connected to the car and online. So I i...
