Auto upgrade from build 72 to build 81 kills serial wideband.

[kp]

Use Notepad to open the file:
\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5\EFILiveV7.original

Check the value of VersionOriginal

[OriginalSetup]
VersionOriginal=82

If it is set to 82, then the auto updater thinks you already have 82 installed so it won't download/install the current 82.

To force it to re-download and install 82, change that value back to 81 and retry the Check for Updates option.

That worked, I have no idea why my two computers said 'VersionOriginal=82' and had build 81 on them.

I'll go try the wideband now

Still no go, wideband just sits and flashes between 0.00 and 2.56 with build 82, thought maybe it was an issue with the new Atom processor so I drug out my older laptop.

I tried it and it worked fine with build 80 that was on it, let it update to build 82 and it stopped working also.

On both of them if I uninstall 82 and put 72 back in they both work fine.

Here is a log of it not working, car isnt running and its just in free air, but it should read 25.0 on the AFR. If I run the car it will still read 0.00/2.56.

A few days ago, I incorrectly posted the build 82 update with build 81 files in it. That was "live" for about 30 minutes until the problem was detected and fixed. If you downloaded/updated in that 30 minute window then you would have that situation.

Are you logging using black box logging or pass-through logging to the laptop?

pass through, black box works fine.

wait, the wideband displays fine on the V2, I havent made a black box log to see if it reads ok in build 82.

In Log0000.efi all the pids have "zero" values... the data is all some non-value.

The car isnt running right now, I noticed the wideband not working yesterday morning after I ran the auto upgrade when it was still together and running and couldnt figure out why so I put 72 in and it worked fine, didnt savee any logs when it was running when I was trying to figure out what was going on.

If I put build 72 in the wideband displays fine without the car running like this log. I put the sensor alone in another running car's tailpipe, the previous log was done exactly the same way, no matter what the wideband reads on the V2 the computer shows 0.00/2.56 and thats it. I had to get the heads off so its not running right now.

Can you post your log files where you see serial AFR reading 0.00.

Here's an E38 log file from tonight.
V2 displayed correct AFR.
Logging in pass-through mode.

Update ate my AFR...
I have the same problem.
My PLX gauge reads correctly,
Flashscan unit reads correctly,
but the computer just sits on 0.00

It worked fine till the update.
I just now changed the EFILiveV7.original back to 81, and
let it update agan. and have the same problem.
