I just had a quick play, I removed the chip and set the TPS to 0.7v KOEO.
I started it and set the idle as low as I could (950 by the instrument cluster)
I reinstalled the chip, started it and it idled the same.
I did a KOEO diagnostic test which gave codes (173, 411,521 and 537) 411 is expected, 521 and 537 (I'm guessing I counted it wrong and it should be 538) are also expected because I forgot to do anything during the test. I didnt run another.
During the test I noticed the idle sounded the same but the needle on the tacho was showing about 750rpm, I switched it off removed the jumper and started it again and it the tacho showed as before (idling around 950).
I think I need to get hold a proper tacho.

Ok, did the test properly this time, and the only remaining codes are 173 and 411.
These codes are repeated whether the chip is in or not.

Also... I found out I'm a bit of a douche. I was checking the voltage of the TPS using the engine as a ground. Turns out back probing is a much better method... lol...[i/]Now[/i] the TPS is set at 0.7V.
Here's me thinking a ground is a ground is a ground... apparently its not.

Its dark and I cbf working under torch light so I will experiment more on Sunday to see if it will now idle lower than before.

I just fitted one of these to my XH that we did the broadband conversion on. I had to use the Auto ECU even though mines a manual. Originally had lots of annoying issues because of this. But this chip has solved 99% of them and I now have awesome power to boot as I had the tune changed up.
Can't recommend the J3 chip highly enough 8-)

In other news, I finally got my EF dyno'd (tuned with a T.I. Performance J3 chip of course) on the weekend, pretty happy with the result: 207rwkw @ 6psi! For a little more info on the car check out the owners gallery: http://www.tiperformance.com.au/owners_gallery.php?id=1

How are definitions for AU 6CYLS going. I've got an AU2 on duel fuel, I would like to be able do my own custom tune for the LPG and be able to switch back to a petrol tune when needed.

I did have a peak at it on the weekend. I'll need to remove the ecu to read it.

Got an AU I6VCT/A4 Fairmont Ghia here, build date Feb 99 with WACF catch code.
Done a few dumps using the TI F2E but it doesn't look right -there's no Copyright/Hex text in the bin.
Did 10 dumps with key on, off, recleaned contacts and they all match for CRC.
Here's the bin anyhow..

{DESCRIPTION}


Any progress on the defs for AU I? The WACD def is fairly incomplete by the looks of it.
Also the WACD bin on the TI site is actually a WACE bin.
I've renamed it and added a description file - might be good to update the site with it :)

Hey Ben!

The AU1 ECUs require soldering of the two link jumpers (join each horizontally) in order to make the port active. Seems like your problem.

There's been a bit of work on AU2 defs but the AU1 has been sitting for a little while - got the basics there though.

I have a pretty much stock EL XR6 manual. Is there any real benefit for me to get into this? From what I understand, its more beneficial when converting auto > manual, or getting XR mapping etc...

So is there anything beneficial to me in this?

I saw {DESCRIPTION} on eBay, then came here to see if I could find anything on it....then found this thread.

In your case, there's no benefit in going to another stock pre-programmed chip. If you run Premium fuel then a Custom Pre-Programmed Chip will give you a little more power and economy, even with a stock engine.

Read http://www.tiperformance.com.au/faq.html for a little more info.

Ah yea, thanks...think I might invest in a Custom Pre-Programmed one, as I do run premium fuel.

Over in Scotland for a month, but will be in touch when I get back!

Thanks :)
