Title: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: 65vetteC6 on May 01, 2014, 08:16:02 AM I swapped a 2.7t into a B6 S4 and did a single turbo conversion at the same time. Im not positive what year the motor came out of but I think 2000 since it was wired for a Bosch MAF. I am using 034 MAF so I have to rewire it any way. I picked up a M box ecu from ebay to flash the box with software I got from a tuner since I have larger injectors. Car starts but dies pretty quickly so I currently have the MAF unplugged but have no throttle. I am positive the TB is functioning, could the ecu be bad? Or could the tune be the cause of this?
Thanks in advance. Edit: Guess I should add some of the codes that poped up too, 17952 - Angle Sensor 1 for Throttle Actuator (G187) P1544 - 35-00 - Signal too Large 17581 - Angle Sensor 2 for Throttle Actuator (G188) Signal too High P1173 - 35-00 - 17977 - Cruise Control Switch (E45) P1569 - 35-00 - Implausible Signal 16622 - Manifold Pressure / Boost Sensor (G31) P0238 - 35-10 - Signal too High - Intermittent 17953 - Throttle Valve Controller P1545 - 35-10 - Malfunction - Intermittent 18057 - Powertrain Data Bus P1649 - 35-10 - Missing Message from ABS Controller - Intermittent 18058 - Powertrain Data Bus P1650 - 35-10 - Missing Message from Instrument Cluster - Intermittent Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: ddillenger on May 01, 2014, 08:57:52 AM Time to check measuring blocks to verify the TPS on the pedal are working.
If they are not, open the ecu and take a high res photo of the board. Chances are the trace for the TB is shot and will look overheated. Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: zillarob on May 01, 2014, 06:52:01 PM When I was doing this swap, I remember 2 different pinouts for the tbody or pedal wires in the daigrams.
Cant remember how I figured out which one to use, but it worked. Might want to double check you used the right one. I havent hooked up the cruise yet, but never got that code.

The are both show the position changing when I step on the throttle in a stock ecu. When I switch in the tuned one they both show 100% and will not change and there is an error in throttle adpation column and the 3rd column said 1. What is the general location that I should take a picture of?

The cruise control code should be gone now. I can hear and see the throttle body move when the car is in accessory mode with the stock ecu so I know my wiring is correct.

If you see one trace with the paint burnt off, that'd be your issue. Take a good photo for me.

Do you have a spare ecu to try? The fact that your old one causes the TB to cycle and the new one not leads me to conclude you have a hardware problem, not wiring. If you want to send me the ecu I can swap out the driver board and trace the circuit, or you can get another ecu (I have a few if necessary). Shoot me an email (it's in my sig).

Just got a loaner from a friend last night so I will tune it and give it a try tonight.

OT daz, but while we wait, the lower of the 2 larger chips on the upper right of this pic: (http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m151/65vetteC6/DSC_0443_zpsb903c054.jpg) B1S1 heater ground, ecu pin 63. I see continuity on the 3rd and 4th pins from the right on the upper row. Is this chip capable of sinking heater current and monitoring the circuit? Have a persistent heater code that wont go away, even when swapping connectors (in another car). Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: ddillenger on May 02, 2014, 10:43:59 PM From what I recall, that should be a 30344. I forget which does which, but one is N75/injectors. I have to find my notes.
Which code do you have? Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: ddillenger on May 02, 2014, 10:56:09 PM Also, the one BELOW the middle one on the right is for the TB/TPS electronics.
Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: zillarob on May 02, 2014, 11:33:11 PM Its a dif ecu, I was just poking at an s4 one because I had it handy.
I was expecting to find some kind of fet that switched ground to the heater, but only those two legs on the mp had continuity. Seems like a lot for that thing to sink. Ill have pull the other one out and see if I can let the rest of the smoke out of it! Cant remember exactly, but think it was a heater circuit code. It stayed on the same bank even after swapping the sensor plugs. Other side was good, and stayed good after being swapped. Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: 65vetteC6 on May 06, 2014, 06:41:08 AM Well the loaner ecu worked fine, must have been an issue with the ecu.
Title: Re: Can a tune cause no throttle Post by: ddillenger on May 06, 2014, 07:12:18 AM Rob, you might have a bad MOSFET. Start there.
vette, glad to hear! |
