Hey guys,

Noticed last night when I went to drive my car (only couple times a week) the immob light wasnt on and I didnt press my remote.

the light that indicates my security is on isnt on and Im kinda worried as I dont want to leave the car anywhere.

Not sure of brand but could anyone have any ideas on what to do / check / anything!?!?!?!

Cheers,

Chris

Hey Chris!

(havent seen u on PF for a while!)

Havent got on on me at work but I'll get one tonight and find out.

I got home last night and the red light on the dash was on....so all good but this morning checked it out and the red light was flashing, used remote, turned off and worked. however a minute later the car locked itself and red light went back on and flashed. Now its never locked itself before.....werid, really weird :angry:

If you didnt open any of the doors when you turned it off last night, it is basically an inbuilt feature that it will rearm and lock the doors regardless of the type of immobiliser or alarm. Generally has a 30 second delay though... but if you turned it off and opened a door there is definitely a gremlin of some sort in there!

:mellow:

    • Did and sync timing with light 
    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
