View Full Version : Issue with CSP5 switching

I am having an issue with the new CSP5 Switching, issue are as follows
1. The last tune you have loaded is suppose to stay active once you shut the vehicle off, or unplug the V2. Mine revert back to tune 5 every time. Anybody know why or have this issue?
2. The PTO enable block is enabled, but can not get it to work, what the secret?
3. I set my idle speed vs coolant D5751 to have the engine rpms come up when I start the vehicle in cold weather, like say 10* 800rpm, -3.9* 1100rpm, -23.3 1200rpm and when I start it in the morning with temps at 40* it does not idle up no matter what I change it to on the low side, but on the high side if I set it to idle 900rpm at 215* it will?
4. Skim Key, no matter what I change in the EFI live tuning I keep getting this DTC?
Can any of you Admins or anybody answer these, or has any one else had these problems?
I have re-installed the Oct 16 2013 updates on 7.5 ver 8 and the firmware.

Can you post a screen shot of your D5751 table? What table are you referring to for PTO?

I will have once I get home, and PTO enable is under misc parameters.

To confirm you are running October 16 please post your software and firmware versions from the help screen in your v7 and v8 software.
When you reinstalled October 16 did you start with a clean base file and convert to CSP for a fresh start?
How are you drawing the conclusion that after you unplug V2 that it's defaulting to tune 5. The more specific you are in the steps that generate your issue, the easier it is for us to diagnose.
And finally, what switching methods are you using? Are you just using V2 or are you also switching with another product.
Cheers

Cindy,
EFILive V8.2.2.236
FlashScan V2 / AutoCal Firmware - 2.07.51
EFILive V7.5.7.244
I started from a fresh base file of my stock file, and I'm switching using the V2. When I turn off the vehicle I have it on let's say tune 3, when I get back into the vehicle and restart it then use the V2 under scan tool "Display Data" you can scroll down and it will show you what tune you are on. When I do this it will show tune 5 (always defaults to tune 5)after I do what I describe above even if I leave the V2 plugged in.
Hopes this helps Cindy, thanks for the reply

I saw your video of this issue, that is the most bizarre thing I've ever seen happen with tuning. I know one of our beta testers was running that OS throughout the testing so it should be fine.
You posted the tune on here somewhere didn't you?

I have several trks running the same operating system without issues reported. Something freakish is going on. Possibly some internal damage to the ecm causing it to completely reset after shutdown? Does length of time being shut down matter or is it instantaneous? Tried switching to 409os?

Tried again tonight and tune is staying on the tune it was left with, no idea why it was doing that, but seems to be working now. As for the other issues they are still an issue.

Cindy,
Update for you on the skim key error I kept getting. Here in the last few months it has been getting colder outside here where I live and I started to notice that my grid heater was kicking on and really putting a load on my batteries. I disabled the grid heater in my tune and the batteries still seem a little week so a week ago I replaced them with two optima 800cca batteries and lo and be hold my skim key problem went away. So just for shits and giggles I put the other two batteries back in and the skim key error came back. What I figured is that the batteries were so week that during the cranking it was causing an intermittent power drop to the ECM as I had gotten the DTC error in the past several times but it went away after awhile. I had ran into issues like this in the past with gasser vehicles were the battery have just enough juice to crank but in doing so prevent other controls to function properly, and once I had an older 6.2l Chevy diesel that would cause the starter solenoid to stay engaged and continue cranking the engine even after you turned the key off and come to find out the engine had to crank at a certain rpm to get the motor to fire and work properly. So there you have it my cure for the Skim Key Error.
