MS1_BG_3.0 Loads but +Extra will not anymore?
Using TS, i can open project > MS1_BG_3.0 and my laptop connects to my MS1 v3 board fine. TS loads and my TPS has feedback (so i know its reading from MS). Using the MS1_Extra_Example or more appropriately, my custom project... TS will not connect to my board. I have tried the communication test inside MS.
Quick history,
I've been running Fuel and spark since i built the board 3 years ago. Never a connection issue via my Keyspan usb adapter to a laptop.
I decided to try and update my easyTherm settings and that is when the connection issue started. That was about 6 months ago and the best i can remember, something happend during this "update/connection". I couldn't get things to work since then. Perhaps something is corrupt and that is pretty much where i am at now.
I have tried re flashing the firmware but the app doens't find my controller on COM4. TS finds it on COM4 but only if i load a non "extra" default project. I am kinda stumped what else to try next.

It sounds like you have loaded MS1/BG firmware onto your ECU instead of MS1/Extra.
If you try to create a new project in TunerStudio, see what it says in the "Detect" stage.

Thanks for the replied fella's. That could be possible when I was using EasyTherm I suppose. I will try creating a new project when I get back home.jsmcortina wrote:It sounds like you have loaded MS1/BG firmware onto your ECU instead of MS1/Extra.

I figure there may be currupt data in my board or i mistakenly loaded MS fuel only. So then i added the boot jumper and try to re-flash and receive this message: It seems i am having a problem flashing the board at this point.

It looks for certain like you installed MS1/BG on your chip. Most likely through Easytherm. I've not used that in many years.
The second screenshot shows you trying to load the MS3 firmware ?! That won't work. You have an MS1.
Download and install the current MS1/Extra firmware.

Just that some here have had difficulty loading firmware without it. But it sounds like James is on the right track!zuki1018 wrote:I am 90% sure I wasn't yesterday no. What are you thinking?kjones6039 wrote:Curious....... Are you using the boot jumper?
