New PC3 install today, no start now
Hi Folks,
Just finished installing Bub7 trues with crossover, SE Stage1 and a new PCIIIusb on my 08 EGUC. Gotta get that map on ya know, so I did and ta da, I mean oh sh*&, no start. She turns over, pciii gets power from bike and 9v but not even a pop.
Plugged the stock ecm back in and walla, sounds great. Dyno closed till monday, any suggestions?
Thank you,
Molzy

tx, no cigar
I did unplug and replug, prior to that i was getting error code 39, not now though. She just won't fire with the pciii hooked up, be4 or after. The unit was NIB, is the correct part number and I tried to start with the dyno provided map for my set-up and even the 0 map. No luck.
Caqn I ride it 8 miles to HD w/out the O2's hooked up on the stock ECM without hurting the bike or yellowing the pipes?

i would definitely try plugging it in again, but before you do, take a gander at all the connections and make sure there are no bent pins

This is a prime reason to have the stage 1 upgrade done even though you have the tuner. With the stage 1 you would still be able to ride the bike without damaging anything. Imagine if it went out on the interstate. I will have the stage 1 done just for that reason. I have heard of the tuners going out if they get wet also. I plan on wrapping mine some way to help waterproofing. Good luck.

I think you just have a bad PC III. Try to return it and if you can buy a PC-V from FuelMoto. If you every have a problem with your PC on the road just unplug it and plug the stock ecm back to stock. It only take 5 min. to return to stock.
