Why.... ?!?!?!?!!?!?!

So it look like the display on my Cobb AP just **** the bed; and I have no idea why. I can still connect it to a PC and it works fine - but if I can't access the handheld I can't flash new maps.

And the dyno is tomorrow!!!! FUUUCK.

Any ideas?

Damn - that sucks .
Know anyone close with an AP you could swap with temporarily ?

Is your tune good enough to run as is ?

I'll make a phone call. I just tested my last tune - it's not bad but I don't want to run more than 10 PSI unless I can tune higher load cells.

And I'm not going to spend the money just to go do a stupid power pull.

FUUUUCK! This is pissing me off.

Yes it is brand new...

Any reset I can try or something? If I have to mail it for warranty then my engine isn't going to get dynoed for a year....

The display is just black?
Warranty repair is all I can suggest.
If I had an extra sitting here, I'd Fed-Ex it to you.

It's connected - but display is D-E-D...

I was gonna try to borrow one, but as Nuke mentioned I'd have to uninstall it - which I can't cause the display is fucked.


I think I am going to drink alot for the next few days....

I can talk you through the key-presses to do that.

When you plug it in, it automatically goes to "Monitor".
So hit this sequence:

UP
OK
DOWN
DOWN
OK
OK

It will uninstall.

Hmm - how about load a tune? (Nuke has to work tomorrow anyway.)

Does the AP on the laptop display them in the same order as on the ap?


Nah, my luck I'd load a stock map and pop my motor.... as I get older I learn a little more patience, I think it just isn't in the cards unless Cobb can get it back to me overnight. Actually I will call them in the morning and maybe luck out with some kind of remote trouble shooting... though I don't know what that would be.

So hit this sequence:

UP
OK
DOWN
DOWN
OK
OK

It will uninstall.

Attach it to your PC and the AccessPORT manager.
Erase ALL of the programs on the AP.

Create your calibration and name it "11111". Both the calibration name and the file name.
Move it onto the AP and eject the AP.

Back to the car, plug it in. Wait 30 seconds.
Press "OK" FIVE times in a row, waiting 10 seconds between presses.
This will install the "11111" calibration.

So I have to uninstall it first to do this?

The main reason I am hesitant is if it doesn't work then I can't drive my car period.

What if I erase all tunes on my AP except the 111111 file?

Can I just go Monitor, Tune, Select Map and flash?
