It does work there is some tune setting if you're using sd tuning that needs adjusted also ,I have done a couple of them, one was at 3 shops before it was in my hands to get running so some times it more then turning off vats depending on your set up
2006 Cadillac 4.6L SC transplant into a sand buggy it needed the relay from pin 56 (start relay) to ignition or could have used a resistor. that was required to get the fuel injectors to have a signal, tried everything else in the thread. also tried switching G1220 to 12v and relay to gd and did not work.

ok guys I need some help I know I don't post much but I do read here a lot and it has gotten me to where I am now with tuning. However I am now at the point of pulling my hair out of my head. I have read every post on this thread 1 I don't c anyone using my OS #12636005 is what I have. I have a 2012 5.3 that I have installed in a jeep turns over but no start. no spark at all I have beat myself up trying everything under the sun y'all have posted and others have suggested. with no luck. any input is greatly appreciated.
Can you post your tune file you are using?
A Quick update and an FYI since i didn't find the issue in the forum search...
I learned this past week that if your changing the OS, on top of disabling VATs, do each step separately.
I did both together and could not get VATs to disable no mater how many times I tried to re-flash the change after the first OS download, I kept getting the TDS P0633 and it wouldn't "learn" the password.
I then switched the OS to a 2010 calibration and then disabled VATs and re-downloaded, it worked fine.

Ive been reading about this for a long time now and through a lot of frustration still no luck, no start. I have trouble shooted for almost two months now and still coming up short so here I am asking for help... Could someone please take a look and lmk know what im doing wrong thank you
It's got to be something else, everything in your tune looks fine for allowing that engine to run in a conversion.
Thanks for looking GMPXQuote:

E38 computer 2009 OS compatible
11:1 compression
4.005" pistons
stock LS3 Camshaft
lz1 engine out of a truck, its 58x and has ls2 part number on the block, 243 heads etc. Had vvt, afm, deleted all that.
Custom stand alone harness brand new everything.
starter relay set to "not used" its also set up on a relay w/resistor just in case.
push button start, everything is on a relay. switched power for ignition etc. Brake switch on a relay.
grounds are good and solid. Two 4 ga chassis to engine grounds + grounds from the harness.
while cranking voltage goes down to about 10.8 is the lowest i've seen it, usually around 11 mostly. key on usually 13.4ish
LS2 intake manifold with ls2 33# injectors.
fuel pump is an aeromotive 355, -6AN to corvette fuel filter/regulator into the stock ls2 fuel rails. Pressure while cranking is 70psi
I'm getting spark and fuel. The engine almost starts, stumbles like its about to start and then immediately stops once it gets close to sounding like its starting..
Brand New : map sensor, O2 sensors, MAF IAT, ECT sensor, Cam sensor, Crank sensor, Oil pressure sensor.
runs great on brake cleaner.
Engine will not run, tried everything I could troubleshoot from searching, searching, searching, searching, and yes searching.... Some how still think its the VATS due to its behavior.
Tried all sorts of VATS parameter combinations w/ no luck. the full flash patch etc. in all types of orders. IE stock tune.. adjust vats parameters then apply patch then FULL reflash: No luck. IE stock tune apply vats patch, adjust parameters. : no luck. ETC.. I've done this with adjusted IFR : No luck. I've tried different OS' within my compatibility.. I've thought about trying an older OS' but I don't want to damage my ECM so I haven't yet. Should I use an older OS in the ECM?
I'm at the point where I'm ready to get a lignenfelter kit and convert to gen 3 since I have an ecm and harness at my shop already. OR I just may carb it.. I would like to not do either one of those because I don't want to spend anymore money on this thing. unless its getting tuned.
Could someone please take a look and maybe steer me into the right direction.. Everyone has told me how easy these motors are and I feel the opposite about them right about now..
EFI live is up to date. I've messed with PIDS, I'm getting rpm, etc.
Name it i've prob tried it... Thanks to anyone who takes their time to help or review.
UPDATE** sorry its taken me so long to come back to this thread.. anyways all it needed was more fuel when it was cranking and it fired right up.. I couldn't find anyone to help me tune it with efi live so I ended up switching to another brand I'd rather not say since i like efilive..
Hope this happening helped someone.. Just in case you are scowering this thread troubleshooting impatiently over and over.. the patch works. efi live works.
Thanks for all the help.
I'm just going through my first VATS delete using a E38 ecu stand alone and I have ignition but no injection while cranking.Quote:

We're using a independent starting system.
Setting it to "Not used" will hopefully sort it.
I'm trying to sort this remotely you see so its a bit painful :)
thanks,
Mike in NZ
Yes set that to not used and it should work.

I would like to know if remote start is possible on my 06 VE SS-V or is my OS to old or not compatible with it
E38 PFI ECM
OS 12612381 Rev. AA
Bootblock 12605900
Calibration ID 12612380
I can post my factory tune file if required.
whats the difference between vats type 2 and 3?
I know this an old post but referenced by many I'm sure.
The B9903 info is inadequate.
Needs to say "do not open v7.5 tune until key is on.
Nothing says "HOW" to get the software or where to find it. Is setting B9903 to "Applied" actually installs the patch??
For us newbies, it would help if the "Full Flash" process was explained.
I'm finding this site very frustrating because even though there is al lot of info, it feels like the "experts" are expecting us newbies to know where all settings/parameters are. NOT!
It's like setting up an app on your. someone takes your phone and makes adjustments or changes settings and says there-you-go.
They did not show you anything so you have no idea what they did or how to change it.
Maybe when explaining a setting/parameter; saying:
open v7.5 tune
open tuning file (file menu, open tuning file, select file to manage from list of store/saved files)
Put parameter (B9903) in search
I know it takes time to do this but we can't learn if no one tells us.
It takes more 2x or 3x the time for us to find what someone suggested than it takes you to time in details.
So there is my rant. Now Ill go back and read for more hours to understand the popups I get when trying to "Flash" my e38 ecm.
Sorry if I offended anyone...just frustrated. (hope someone reads this :) )
In this car tuning world there exists an expectation that people will be fairly proficient with electronics and computers so other users tend not to go back to the very basics of how things work in responses.Quote:

Which is what I meant above, as an example I know very little about using Photoshop, but if I was to go to a Photoshop help group and someone said 'you create a new blank image' they expect you will not need to be told that means go to file menu, new, blank image etc.Quote:

I won't respond in here, it needs to be done in your other thread.
Hey guys . We just bought a 07 suburban. It came with 1 keys I just bought and cut 2nd key for. I need to disable VATS since it is a basic key. I do have access to efi live. I already put a tune on it. However not sure how to disable VATS. Could not find anything via YouTube. Only with hp tuners or adding a resistor on 2 wires under steering wheel.
Looking for some help on a 2009 Trailblazer SS based calibration file in transplant street rod with no start condition. Cranks but doesn't fire the fuel injectors. Not setting any codes that would indicate why it won't start.
OS is 12630465. Flashed to all stock files for a 2009 TBSS with GM Techline so it has the correct slave/MCP files for this software set.
VATS patch applied, VATS type set to 2, tried with and without a relay as a load on the starter
Tested the G1220 starter relay type set to "Not used" and no change.
Tried disconnecting the battery, unplugging the ECU etc.
Any ideas what we should check next? Anyone have a known working 12630465 OS standalone file (or one compatible for swapping with that OS) that they would be willing to share to test to see if it runs with that file (preferably a 2009 TBSS based so that the slave/MCP files match too). MCP files are 12625997 & 12626935 in case that is of interest.
PSS
Good morning, I've been scratching my head overnight trying different combinations of the VATS disabling settings to no avail. Could someone please take a look at my file and point me in the right direction.
Donor vehicle is a 2013/2014 VF Commodore L77 6L80E Transmission.
Thank you
Andrew
Calm down peeps.....boss man strikes again - fuel lines around the wrong way...oops. Runs sweet as
