Ryno Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 hi rynoi would be interested in talking more about your tune. max power is only one aspect of an ecu tune. theres lots more to be gained in the midrange and the important parts of a tune Hey Paul, I am rather fussy with my car, so I researched tuners for a while before I decided to go to Hitman, and I must say he didn't disappoint. He spent about the same time tuning the cars economy, as he did max power. In fact the max power was never much of a drama, as the first run (with the standard Power FC maps) made 183 kw. I'm very happy with the tune, the car is now smoother than it has ever been, has more power, and uses less fuel. Perfect!

Hey mate, It sounds like a few people have been having this problem - here are the places to start looking: 1. Check all fuses - twice! 2. Wire in a direct 12v from the battery to the battery input on the ECU (pin 58) 3. Check earth wires (pins 60 and 50) 4. If it's still not working start checking all the other wires, for a break or something connected where it shouldn't be. Hope that helps Edited July 14, 2006 by Ryno Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/122474-power-fc-trouble/page/3/#findComment-2330585 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that helps i found the problem it was one of the relays that is up by the computer plug was missing. thats strange that it would run on the std comp but not the power fc. its running beta than ever even with std tune.

That's good to hear mate, It's amazing how tolerant the standard computer is to blown fuses, broken wires and missing relays! But it can make plugging in the Power FC a nightmare. I'm just glad it's all up and running now, if I never have to solder a wire in my car again, I'll be a happy man.

I had the same trouble with my car... I decided to remove the HICAS and install a lock bar. By doing so you pull about 20 kg of weight off the car, and then I fitted a R33 power steering pump. You can disable the HICAS (so you don't get that light coming on) by disconnecting the smaller of the two plugs that go into the HICAS control unit - which is in the boot, beside the rear speaker amplifier.
