my truck is idleing around 2000rpms and i have tunerpro rt running on my laptop with all of the moates cables hooked up via usb, but it wont connect, i may not have the right definition file, i am still running code 58 untill i get my terminal connectors to finish installing the wideband and 3 bar.

i've been checking for vacume leaks and can't find any. i unplug the hose to the map sensor and rpms drop down to close to normal. the check engine light is on and when i drove it down my driveway, it seemed underpowered. i hooked up the ostrich and no matter what bin i upload it will not even start

i really just want to know what i need to do to get my aldl to connect to the ecm so i can see what it is reading. any ideas?

Well, i checked and i have the right files loaded onto tunerpro, i still can't connect. and now it won't start at all. the ecm did get a little wet yesterday, so i did unplug it and let it dry off defore i did anything. but now i am starting to think is is destroyed. i gave the circuit board a close visual inspection but didn't notice any anomalys or smell anything unusual.

Re: high idle, stumbling, alda not working HELP

are you using the moates extreme aldl cable? if so there's a little switch on it for 10k and something else.. I don't remember which one it has to be on but if it's on the wrong one it'll make the idle raise to about 2k and stay there if I remember right. Might want to check that out if you are using that cable.. I believe you don't want it on the 10k setting since that's used for c4 vettes

i actually sprayed a bunch of electrosol in the ecm and in the chip, and it went back to idleing normal and my moates extreme aldl cable is connecting to the ecm and showing values like normal. :oops: go figure. i still cant get it to log files, so if someone can explain why it would keep saying unable to create file?

When you hit F4 for 'select log to record/play' you have to select an existing .adl file. Then it will record.
