Can't reinstall my Cobb!!

Tuner1984 · 04-29-2011, 05:40 AM

I uninstalled it last night just to make sure I was able to since I was one of the people who were having issues installing it perviously before CObb came out with the fix. Now I can't reinstall the AP. I don't hear the clicking noise when it connects to the ECU, and it acts like its going through everything however, once it gets to the loading maps and verifying maps it just gets stuck on that feature and the cam gear things just keeping spinning and nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Update your maps, firmware and retry?

I'm always leary of messing with stuff that ain't broke...

I'm going to try again this afternoon. If I can't get it I will have to see assistance from Cobb or Mach V which is right down the street. I updated to the latest firmware and I was trying to switch to one of the new maps that Cobb put out. However, it did nothing even though I know its supposed to be only minutes to switch maps. However, it just stuck on the loading and verifying maps screen. The car is completely stock now outside of a few boltons. Didn't have any issues uninstalling just can't figure it out now!!

Pat,

Go back to Mach V and see if they can get yours to load or if another unit (since they are a distributor) will work. You might have a faulty unit.

Whats on May 7th?

Let me know how it goes tonight when you try to reflash. We can always try my OBDII cable and AP.
