DFW members willing to help install JB3

dragazn · 03-08-2009, 02:57 PM

I been having some problem with jb3 install, anyone willing to help. I got cel after I start the car up, and double/triple checkl all the wire and even the connector is sitting properly, any help. I'll throw in a dinner or some beer for the volunteer.

do you have the pnp or pinout? where are you located? i won't be back into town until thursday afternoon though so if you still need help then...then let me know.

I live in keller, make sure the harnesses are pushed all the way in, double check and make sure the slide harnesses are on the the right connectors, plus try restarting the car 5 times. If that doesnt work send me a pm or email terry, he is really quick to respond.

dragazn · 03-09-2009, 05:14 PM

I got PnP version. Just like windows PnP hardwaare when it just came out with all the bugs lol (Not saying Jb3 bug, just making comments on windows)

Send email to terry already, I need tog et some picture of the connector for him to look at it. I keep on getting a cel when the engine start, and rought idle. however all goes away when i plug stock back. I know I have seated thoes connector and sub connector properly b/c went i went back to stock it work right away. Large Connector is all black wire and small conenctor, which is on the driver side is all red, the top is the grey sub connector. Berified the factory connector plug into the JB3 is correct and not needed to be flip as well.

hmmm that sounds strange. what chip version are you running? if you have an older chip version try swapping that in there and see if it occurs again. maybe a defective chip? just giving you alternatives on issues. i have the first 2 updates from the jb3 if you don't have it.

dragazn · 03-13-2009, 07:21 AM

I jsut order it and its a 1.22 version, haven't had a time to attemp it again due to work and weather

BMW_TT · 03-13-2009, 02:12 PM

You didn't get a connector flipped around did you?
