OK. Had Tuneboy Awhile now...

Ex-'s laptop went to Washington, so, I tried to use my 'ole Compaq Desktop assigned to garage duties, but it just kept chugging & buggin...

Finally got my hands on a sexy 17 inch Gateway laptop-err..."notebook."

Got Tunbrah' up and runnning with a little help from Jethro and got to talking with the beast.

Weird when I turned her on, she idled way high, and way fast (1900 K) :shock:

While it was more or less warmed up, I was getting a TPS volt of .640-.645 and short of that, it was all I got (didn't mess with any downloads at the time).

I was planning on putting the idle screw back to stock, and bumping the idle to see if I had any idle problems...I'm going to have to fish for my CD on the Rock manual to see what other adjustments should be made as well....

I don't think that's weird, mine on cold starts almost always goes to 1900rpms before settling to 750rpms after a few seconds. It just means your stepper motor is working properly.
The TPS voltage is definitely wrong, it should be .60 + or - .02.
IMO, putting the screw back to stock is a good idea. Adjust the idle with TB.
Glad to hear everything is good with TB now. Now we need to get your router working.
Oh, I forgot to ask, was your bike running when you got your TPS reading?
 
Yes, I say it's wierd b/c it hadn't done that on a cold start in forever...guess I should have clarified. Was weird it did that with TB attached...
 
MD . . .same here . . . mine idles up high, burps and farts and then smooths out and settles down to idle after about 5-10 seconds.

Probably normal . . . you've been running abnormal! :roll: :shock: :twisted: :p
 
ok, my tuneboy has arrived. This may sound dumb, but I don't see a connector to hook the USB serial cable end to. So, with out to much crap, where is it??? :shock:

coloured the red bit myself and that is the plug you need except it is black in the real world ;)
 
Thanks for the info. I have ever place open on the bike looking for the connector. I did not look under the tool tray. I will give it a try.
thanks
