TPS vs MAP sensor Map

How do folks,

I'm running a 1380 Mini with a weber 45, an SW10 cam (similar to 286) and a TPS sensor.

I've downloaded the SPI2 map and a few others but wondered if maps were specific to if the car had a TPS or MAP sensor?

Many thanks

So, after having the car back in my own possession last night we decided to try my mate's laptop with a serial port on. After making a few mistakes by not 'committing to flash' when we had switched maps around etc it seemed to work fine. We were getting a few errors in the software saying that it co...

Right... back to where we were... Just had a call off the bloke who was ranting at me for how long it has taken him to get the car running etc etc. He then suggested that I didn't tell him it had megajolt on it before I took it to him! He then started to explain to me that he had lost so many hours ...

I just rang him to talk through the suggestions and he said after reloading the firmware on the ECU it is now working...

So he is just going to run it up on the rolling road and get it something useable until its run in.

Thanks for your help folks

Thanks again. I'll have to ring him and ask him, is there a better way of explaining it to him?

Right... just spoken to the guy again and he has checked that the ECU is seeing the TPS and the 5v feed is ok. The ECU is a TPS version. The analogue style dial on the screen of the megajolt software is moving and showing the TPS but it isn't feeding the data into the 3d map. He is wondering if he c...

Check the voltage at the 5V supply pin. If you don't have 5V there then there is a hardware problem on the ECU. Next check the signal coming back to the ECU. You should have a value swinging between 0 and 5V as you open and close the throttle. If you don't have a swing of at least a couple of volts...

Cheers guys. The ECU does not have a vacuum nipple on the body and has apparently been run with the TPS before.

Any other ideas? As the car is not with me and the tuner wanted me to leave it with him I can only relay what he has said...

How do folks Just had a call from the man setting up my car and he has an issue with my megajolt. The car is running a TPS sensor and he said that the megajolt was set to run with a MAP sensor. He has now switched the megajolt to see and to run with a TPS sensor but the megajolt is only giving a 2d ...
