Hi!

Just installed dsmlink on my car, now it won't start. Tried swapping the original chip in but it still won't start. Check engine light came on first time i tried starting the car with the dsmlink chip and is still on when i use the original chip.

I have a 95 gsx with a 6-bolt and at-mt swap that was running before i removed the ecu to have dsmlink soldered(professionally).

any ideas to what might have gone wrong?

I guess i should check the fuel pump fuse\relay but i don't know where it is located

edit: found the fuelpump relay (i belive), caps called it relay eng control(14916). when i remove it the check engine light goes off but the car still won't start.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
Need more info.
It is turning over at all? Do you have fuel flow? Have you tried compromising with the car? You know, give a little take a little. Tell it you'll get it detailed if it starts or something. If you've tried everything else, you might as well try that :D

No but seriously. What does it do when you put the key in the ignition and turn?
 
I have spark, i checked last night.

i can hear the fuelpump relay click when it is supposed to.

The starter works(it turns when i turn the key)

I've now sent the ecu for repair(dsmlink guys).

The fact that i got a cel after i had the socket for the dsmlink installed also points to there being a problem with the ecu. I just hope it isn't totaly ruined.

Best regards
tobias
