how to map on RR? how to find out what version I have?? Should I update software/firmware???

Hi folks,

As you can probably tell I am new to all of this and I am looking for what may be basic help. I have recently fitted a MJLJ kit to my VW golf. I purchased the kit from a guy that already had it fitted to his golf. I phoned a local tuning/RR garage today and they wanted to know more about the software and firmware but i didn't know which versions or the best way to go about the tuning process on the RR so i have a few questions.

p.s. the setup is running a TPS and not a MAP sensor

Is there a way I could find out which version the MJLJ box is running?
What is the best way (procedure) to map the ignition on the RR?
Also I have noticed firmware upgrades for different MJLJ versions - could I use any or must it be specific to the unit I have?

any related information about the RR tuning process, hints and tips would be greatly appreciated too as I will be taking the car up for its setup this weekend if possible

thanks

Marty

Hello-

To check your firmware version click help/about in the configuration software while the MJLJ is connected, and it will read and display the firmware.

If you don't see this information in help/about then you are likely running a previous version of the firmware.

The latest controller firmware is 3.2.1 for V3 hardware; the latest configuration software is (coincidentally) V3.2.1 as well. The latest V2 hardware firmware is 2.8.

If you need to upgrade your firmware you'll find the instructions in the wiki (How To section above)

Regards,
