Big R32 Problems

[J-train]

Hello all this is my first post as a skyline owner.

I bought an R32 gts-t with a RB25det Neo motor and box in it from an R34 last weekend.

I disconnected the battery to move a few guages around since I had to do some soldering and on restarting the car when I was finished it is running rough and won't rev past 2500rpm. I think I may have wiped the memory on my Apexi Neo and this is why it is acting like this. I can not tune it myself so I will have to spend money getting it done. Can someone shed light on the problem and save me some christmas money?

Thank you,

Jarrod

Hey Jarrod, welcome to SAU.

What exactly did you do/touch when you moved the gauges? Even if the ECU is reset you should still be able to drive it. Do you have a consult cable?

afc neo wont loose its memory if you disconnect the battery. were you playing around in the engine bay at all??

your ECU is in safety mode... either your AFM signal's not there or one of your critical signals isn't getting to the ECU. would one of the gauges you moved around happen to be an air-fuel ratio gauge?

You didnt accidentally bump the plug on the AFM did you? when I done that on my car it done the same thing car idled like a pig and wouldnt rev over about 3 grand, so make sure the AFM is connected securely.

Figured out the problem!

The Apexi Neo's memory must have been wiped because when I by-passed it the car is idling and driving perfectly. I am going to book it in for a major service and a dyno tune in the next fortnight so hopefully it will be fine.

cheers for your help guys

Hey dude once you sort out what the problem is, could you come back and post please? It'll help someone else that could be in your shoes. Cheers.
