ecuflash not working!!!!!

[cherrymane]

please sombody help me!!! i bought it brand new from tactrix with mitsubishi adapter and plugged it in and nothing! keeps giving me errors and to check my log. i cant find out if i need to do something with pin 79 or not. some people tell me to some dont and getting ahold of the company is a joke. i have a 2.5 jack plug with a weird pin adpter on the other side and it doesnt look like it goes anywhere.

Well first of all, do you have a black plastic reflashable ecu?

 

[Cox Abele]

Looks like you have a 97 according to your info. You will need to wire a pin into the ECU in order to flash along with needing the black-cased ECU.

Why isn't this posted in the EvoScan/ECUFlash subforum?

i do have a 98 gst flashable ecu

i cant find actual pictures of the process.

 

[gieri002]

Yup, on 95-97s you must add a pin at position 79 of your ECU Harness.

 

[cherrymane]

so what do i do with the harness with a 2.5 jack and weird mutli pin connector? and does anyone know where there is pics to do this?

 

[ZombieSix]

your overthinking it. add a wire to pin 79 of the ecu and put the jack on that wire, plug the jumper from the jack to the tactrix and plug the tactrix into your obd2 port. plug usb cable into tactrix and into your computer.

Now i need help with tuning and there is nobly around me that can do it or is comfortable with tactrix..... fml

I mainly read forums and guides about flashing EVO's. Pretty much taught me everything I needed to know about flashing my GSX. Just a thought.

I've been doing my own information collecting the last few weeks. Here's a few book marks I have saved that will help you along in your learning. Some of it may not be applicable, such as the Auto launching stuff, but it's worth the read for understanding what it is you are actually doing.
