NIZBARU Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Hello i purchased a link ecu G4+ plugin for my 1999 jdm wrx ej205 . Im basically new to this and in need of help and advice to getting the car to start . long story short i followed everything in maunal and its seems car wont start or turn over . it started 2x times but very limpy and died right away . is there a step i am missing what values or adjustment i need to do. Mostly stock except for full Tb exhuast have aem wideband but not wired in ecu (ordered wire loom). .map is running V7-8 its seems 1-6 cant callibrate or fails but on v7 reads good and in sync with bap. Thanks. Any help is appriciated .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Burnett Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Try increasing the master fuel value if you are in traditional fuel mode. If in modelled mode, decrease the fuel injector scale value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Is your car the older gen 1 shape or the "newage" shape? I thought a '99 should be what we call a V5 or V6. They use a different trigger pattern to a V7 so the V7 map wont work. Can you do a triggerscope to confirm: https://1drv.ms/v/s!AiYbYlZQuRHPmieMTkwQDCXEb2LY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 The MAP sensor on the late V6 wrx changed to what we consider the V7 map sensor. Other thing would be check the RPM reading is stable at around 200 on crank. If its jumpy or way off then it could be the dip switch settings on the board (for the trigger inputs) need to be changed to the alternative positions.

NIZBARU Posted August 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 @Simon i am using the V7 map sensor but i thought the jdm1999 wrx models year production didnt have immbolizer so i had it on the no immobilizer i will try and see change dip switch . rpm was jumpy at cranking from 140-167 never stable at 200 or even higher than 160. And @Adamw i think Newer age last gen of the gc8/gf8. i Will do a scope and show thanks for the info much appriciated ... As With v1-v6 map sensor it would not calibrate it would fail reading .V7map sensor it was able to read and match bap . i tried the v1-v6 maf as well no start. Thanks again all will get to it right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Oh I see I got my wires crossed now... When you said "map is running V7-8", I was assuming you were using the V7-V8 base map. Not just the MAP sensor calibration... Report back if Simon's suggestion of the dip switch change doesnt help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I think you are doing the triggerscope wrong as none of them show any data. You have to click the capture button when the engine is cranking and keep it cranking for about 5 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
