Cobb newbie question
Simple question, I think.
I have updated my Cobb AP with the latest firmware. It is not yet married to the car. How do I tell which map set I will need (based on ECU). Should I install and then get the info from the AP, or is there another way. The instructions say to make sure the firmware and maps are all current. I bought a used version, it now has the latest firmware, but will I get stuck if I install it and it doesn't have the right ECU maps loaded? thanks... A.

The 1st time you go to "marry" the AP to your car, it'll go thru a long install process (~20 mins) where it'll tell you what ROM version you are (IJEOS, I8A0S, etc). REMEMBER THE ROM VERSION! From there you can use your laptop & the AP Manager module to upload the proper maps from COBB's website, load them onto your AP & make sure the AP firmware is also updated.
Delete any of the maps that don't correspond to your car's mods, flash for whatever map you want & enjoy PS -- You can also use this if a video helps |

I did update the firmware - it actually did that automagically when I connected it to the manager version of the software on th PC. I also deleted the maps there to be on the safe side.
I connected it and you can get far enough into the install to see the ECU version - wrote it down and then cancelled. Then downloaded the maps. Going to play with them tomorrow. Zoom.
