Crank re-learn not working...EFI experienced guys come on in

[Yuke2K]

I got the PCM from Justin at Black Bear Performance today, but I can't quite enjoy it yet. I didn't have to do the annoying Security Relearn thank god - my truck started right up. However, when I pull up the EFI scan tool to do the crank relearn, it doesn't work. I follow the instructions and hit the "CASE" button, but the "ok" light doesn't appear below the deactivate button like its supposed to, so the re-learn isn't taking place when I rev it to 4000 RPM like I'm supposed to (no fuel cut off or anything).

What gives? All of the approriate contollers have been selected, and I'm connected via my laptop...so what am I missing?

At the top there is an enable and disable button, did you choose enable? May say activate and something else, been a minute since I looked at it.

[Yuke2K]

The top of what? I see an activate and deactivate button within the learning tab, but nothing that says enable and disable. I've got justins instructions in front of me here and it doesn't mention anything besides setting the parking brake, putting my foot on the brake, and hitting the CASE button.

[Chris]

My instructions didnt say anything about hitting another button either, but I had to hit the activate button then continue following the instructions for it to work.

edit: Sorry if I was a little unclear before I'm on my mac so I couldnt look at the program and I did mine a week ago. Ran out and got the laptop though, under the learning tab there is an activate deactivate button like you said, while doing mine I spent a few minutes wondering what was wrong also then decided to hit activate and try again and it worked perfect. If selected it should be a light blue color I believe.

[Yuke2K]

OK I got it to work that time. The "OK" light is still on, even after I shut the truck off. Am I ok to disconnect from EFI Live at this point and then go for a drive to check out the new tune? (30 seconds has more than lapsed lol)

[Chris]

Yup, mine was like that too lol, just hit disconnect and your good to go.

[Max]

drive up to denver and we'll get a beer, you need to datalog anyway.

[Yuke2K]

Heh, whats up Max? You finally made it over to the new forum I see. No go on the drive tonight, we had our capets cleaned and the house is torn to shreds...lots of furniture to move around lol.

What are you up to tomorrow? Do you still want to run a quick scan for your longtubes?

By the way, the new PCM is great! Lots more power on tap...pulling out onto 85 from my street takes no effort whatsoever now - I'm at 65+ before I realize how fast I'm going. :rocking:

[Max]

Good to know the tune works well, just wait until you drive it a bit. I'm working until 6 tomorrow but wouldn't mind checking my tune if you wanna meet up. Pretty sure it's good but I know Justin can get more out of it. Still haven't put my vette servo in either. You still running stock exhaust? If so we'll have to fix that :gr_grin:

[Yuke2K]

Yeah, stock exhaust. Bleh. It's DEFINITELY on my list...along with an intake and those 5100s we were talking about a few months back...but my budget is fucked right now, as usual. You have no idea what it took to convice the wifey to let me do the tune, look how long it took! Almost a year lol.

Thinking about hitting up Midas or something just to get a flowmaster 50 series and chrome tip installed, I think they'd probably do it for like $150, maybe a little less. Haven't asked yet....but thats all I really want - just a little more sound. Thats down the road though. I'm not allowed to spend any more money right now. :emotions122:

Edit: but yeah man if you wanna meet up tomorrow shoot me a PM, I don't have anything planned for tomorrow night.

[Max]

I can get you a deal on flowmaster installed, I'll ask my exhaust guy friday when he replaces the jingling cat they put on when he built my new exhaust. Very reasonable tho, shouldn't be more than $150 and they do really nice work.

[Yuke2K]

Right on man, thanks.

I forgot that my wife has a church youth thing that she's hosting at our place tomorrow night at 7, so lemme see if I can talk my mother in law into taking my 1 year old for a few hours tomorrow night and I'll PM you back in a little while.
