HELP!!! EBL FLASH WONT FLASH

I finally got the WUD to display when i push the throttle and the little clock thing in the right top hand is spinning telling me i am getting info.

Now when i try to flash a .BIN to the EBL it times out.

What am i doing wrong and why isnt this working?

i am using the 1006.bin and think i changed everything to my needs.

My specs are 383ci, brodix heads 2.02/1.60, 1.5:1 RR, and somewhere around 515 lift. I have the port mod done also. What .bin do you think i should use or is the 1006 ok to start with?

please help, i am about to sell the thing.

Re: HELP!!! EBL FLASH WONT FLASH

Sounds like you may be using a USB to Serial adapter cable. The fact that the SES does a blink after the WUD flashing times out means that there is communication. It is the ECM going through a reset.

Let me know if you aren't using a USB/serial adapter cable. If you are need to find out which chip set is in the cable. Can usually find the name from the driver files.

If it is a Prolific chipset may be able to get it to work. Need to play with the FIFO buffer settings in the driver dialog. This chipset doesn't always work on every laptop/PC.

If the USB/serial cable is using the FTDI chipset then just need to lower the latency setting. It usually defaults to 16 at install, lowering it to 10 does the trick.

Re: HELP!!! EBL FLASH WONT FLASH

I did get it to work thanks to Rbob.

i had to set the FIFO (first in first out) lower then what it was when installed. i also set the baud rate lower then the 9600. i believe i set it at 4800. now it seems to work pretty well.

we will see if the problems come back.

Thanks Rbob
