JMP Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 (edited) put one in a local car and the gauge goes down in quarters unfortunately, same as when you remove the stock ECU and wire in an aftermarket ECU that doesn't talk on the Toyota multiplex bus Edited November 25, 2015 by JMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 We have a solution for the Link G4+ Altezza Plug-in ECUs in the final stages of testing. Once we are happy with the testing we will be able to upgrade existing G4+ Altezza Plug-in ECUs if they are sent in to us.We will do the upgrade and return shipping free of charge.

I Have Problem With My RPM meter after install the ECU , is this problem related to ECU?https://www.dropbox.com/s/ydulwg2ffsngtcd/20151123_1653071.mp4?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 Assuming it is doing that at key on and not while the engine is running?If this is the case it is just the ECU doing a tacho sweep.The tacho is not controlled via the bean network which is what the fuel gauge is controlled through.

Joseph Yong Posted November 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 Ok which mean my rpm gunge has problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 (edited) Does the tacho do this just at key on, and then function correctly? If yes, then there is no problem. If you do not want it to do this at key on set the Key ON Sweep to OFF. This is under the Tacho configuration options at the bottom of ECU Settings > Aux Outputs.

Scott Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Hi Joseph,The frequency of the tacho signal is controlled by the speed of the engine. Try adjusting your Tacho Duty Cycle up and down. Maybe try a value of 30 and see if this improves response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Yong Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 I have try still the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 The next step is going to be scoping the signal into the tacho while using the factory ECU and using the G4+ pug-in ECU. Then the signals will need to be compared to see what the difference is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Yong Posted January 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Thanks Scott, I have changed a new cluster and has confirmed the cluster got problem. May I know is the fuel guage issue solved? Can we just upgrade the firmware to solve the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 Hi Joseph, not yet. We have made some changes, but are waiting on a dealer of ours to give us the results of the testing.Are you running the Modelled or Traditional Fuel Equation Mode in your ECU?

Joseph Yong Posted January 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Hi Scott, my setting now is traditional fuel equation mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Hi JosephWould you be willing to do some testing?Catches are that ECU will need to be sent in to use for the fix to be applied and then you will need to tune you car in the modeled mode.

Joseph Yong Posted January 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Hi Simon, No problem for me to perform any testing, if you willing to provide me a detail guidance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 That actual testing is not to bad it will either work or it won't.The hard part is the tune will need to be changed over to modeled mode which will require the car to be put on the dyno and a tuner do the retune.It needs to be in modeled mode to give an instantaneous fuel consumption reading which is apparently required for the fuel gauge.

Joseph Yong Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Hi Simon, I can only try on the setting part, and dyno I Can't make it cause my tuner is busy till after Chinese New Year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Yong Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 Hi Simon, I would like to check with u, is the new firmware solve the Altezza Fuel gauge issue? If not can you give me some guideline so I can arrange with my tuner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi Joseph, We have the update available, but have not had access to a vehicle to test it on ourselves. For the update we would need to have the ECU back to us to install some new BEAN firmware. The ECU would then need to be tuned using our modelled fuel equation.

Joseph Yong Posted March 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Thanks Scott. I can arrange to send back my ecu for firmware upgrade anytime, can you provide me the address? Since I'll send you the ECU will you be able to help me set the modelled fuel equation setting base on my current ecu setting? Will get my tuner to tune once you return my ECU.

Scott Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Hi Joseph, See the following for details on sending an ECU into us. For this upgrade we are happy to do the upgrade free of charge and also pay for return shipping to you. We are able to supply advice on setting up up the modelled fuel mode, but your tuner will need to do it as details like injectors specs and fuel system need to be filled in.http://www.linkecu.com/ECU-Service-Requests Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Yong Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Noted with thanks. Will arrange to send back around next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Yong Posted April 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hi, I have done the registration to send back my ecu as per the info your given, do I need to wait for any confirmation before I send back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
