Hi all, and Merry Christmas! Funny story. Took my low rider to the diner for lunch, and back home. As I was pulling into my patio, she stalled. I have a tune from Hanso installed, and she runs great, but the idle is a tad lower than I'd like. So, being the silly old fart I am, decided to hook up TuneECU and have a look see. Well, I did this and that, "I know, I know", got done "playing" around, and she wouldn't crank. Nuttin. Had it on trickle charger during the whole time, so went ahead and took the seat off, so I could get to the fuses, and undid the fuses for the headlights. Continued connecting, reading, resetting this and that, scratching my going bald head, and still no go. Had a trouble code, as I don't have the sending unit for the gas hooked up. Went out to the barn, and found the old sending unit, hooked it up, cleared the code, still nuttin. This all took me around 2 1/2 hours, as my laptop battery was about to go south. Read through all the stuff on the TuneECU users guide. Was it something I did? Was it the TuneECU cable? Was it the fact that my laptop just did an update to Windows 10? Maybe the old driver thing? Finally gave up, figuring I probably totally screwed the ECU. Came back inside, sat down, and thought about it. Hummm, I don't recall the green neutral light being on..... Sure enough, went back out, gave the shifter a click, green light on, and she fired right up! My poor old brain sure ain't what she use ta to be. Like my departed Grandad used to say, "Mr "useta don't live here no more" ha ha ha
