JB4 Installed..

And I click the two down select buttons on my wheel and nothing happens...I'm not sure what to do. I followed the directions closer than anything.

It should zero out the gauges, after that click up in either button to see if the needles move. If not then re-check your connections. I forgot to fully insert the green power wire when I installed mine. It's easy to overlook things during the install.

The yellow box that's supposed to appear didn't. I'm guessing its connections somewhere. Should I go back and reinstall everything?

How do you zero the gauges on a 335i?

Thanks

They needles don't land on the numbers on the gauges. 1 acyually lands at 1300 rpm mark, 2 at 2500, etc. U heard there is a way to re-zero the gauges. I'm going to try reloading the firmware this morning and see what happens.

Update:

I reinstalled the firmware with version 3. 135,335. I think I may have uploaded the G5 version. I still had to reset the cluster and set it for a 335 in menu 5, but it works fine. Took it for a test drive and I'm thinking this is too much fun and better get a charge pipe soon!!

Now I know what you're talking about. I didn't have that issue. Mine came with the latest firmware.

It's a lot of fun...have you auto tuned it and done three hard redline pulls?

Not yet.
Update 2!

Changed it to 7) 135/335 ISO

Als0, had to reset the defaults so the wastegate, etc parameters were correct. Runs great. No redline pulls yet.

If you haven't done the pulls yet then Map 5 is pointless.

You're not pushing incredible amounts of boost...therefore your charge pipe is fine. My car and charge pipe have been just fine and I have had some "fun" with no issues. You're over thinking things...it's not like you're FBO.
