Throw that piece of crap in the trash if you can not salvage any parts from it. I have been ^&%% with one too much. Today I cut the lcd off for another project. I had trouble with my kit about 3 miles from the house it started to reboot. It kept rebooting and I kept checking all the wires and the voltages and the signals and lost some hair and others turned gray and my daughter did not like me you get the picture. I bought the assembled unit and I have had just one problem out of it. I do not know why but twice it reset the variables back to default but it has not happened again. It is dead nut on the money with all the displayed info. I just have a note pad with the fuel and VSS figures on it and if it happens again I will just input the numbers and away I go.
I am looking for a good way to mount this thing I have tried several different Ideas but nun look good or something is just not right about it maybe I am to picky. But if anyone has any ideas please pass them on.
I think if you externally power the unit it must see the injection pulse to start. I am not sure but I think it is the interupt that starts the program. It should power up when you plug in the usb cable to it and show the startup display. You may also try adjusting the contrast as it is set low on inital startup. I had to tilt the display to see mine when it started up with the usb cable the first time.
