HELP Cobb install and battery died

MSport35TT · 02-06-2013, 01:31 PM

So I left my car in the parking lot at work to re install my cobb and I forgot about it for 3 hrs. When i finally remembered to go check on it the car was dead with only the windshield wipers running...I jumped it now and took it for a drive...seems fine but is there a possibility that the install messed up?

When it finished installing it more than likely it kicked into "loss of communication" mode. In which case it allows the DME to go to sleep. If it's running good then you're fine

Ok cool. so here is my next issue...I went to pull the logs off my aces port from the other night and when I plugged it in it asked to update it. I select to update and then it gave me a message that there was no original ECU software found on the device!!!??? it then asked if i would like to restore it from and older back up or install a stock ROM. What do i do?!?! Does this mean the dealer will now see that the original file has been altered?!

COBB Employee's please help with this one. Did my warranty just say bye?!?!?
