Does anyone have HPTuners? I think Phil's going to be in Indy for a while still. damnit I need to get that program.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

tell that Prick to bring back an RPM level 5 for me

[Fbomb]

Hell, I'm thinking about just buying HPtuners.

[nascarnate326]

hmm, this doesnt make me feel good

I don't understand what you hope to accomplish with HPTuners in regards to VATS.

He wants to disable the VATS system in the PCM. He already has the BCM/Ignition part of the security system bypassed.




Vinnie, have a link to the auction that you won?

I used the one that shbox recommended and it works fine(nock on wood, like a forest of wood)

You said yours had 4 wires? Black , red, blue and???

[Fbomb]

Black, white, white, and red. How do you know that yours works? Did you get your car going?

Yes, been driving it all day.


You should use this PCM wire:

LS1 1998 -------------- pin# 11 of the PCM's 80 pin red connector
LS1 99-02 ------------- pin# 30 of the PCM's 80 pin red connector

according to http://mysite.verizon.net/vze7erz1/id14.html

That is from the site that I bought mine from. What did your directions say? Have a link to the ebay auction?

I used pin #11, no go.

The last four pages of this thread have been blasphemy, absolute blasphemy.

[nascarnate326]

Well I dont know. I guess all I can say is buy the same one that I did. ShBox recommended it and they have sold 4500 plus, I can also vouch it works on a 96 LT1. I wish I had a better answer for you.

Hey, hey, don't hate. I actually drive mine!

































and I live off a dirt road. Sucks. I swear it stays cleaner when I'm up at school.

I hear ya man! I live over a mile down a dirt road and it sucks. My road is the boarder of 2 counties (1 side Oakland/1 side Genesee) and no one wants to grade it so it only gets done like twice a summer!

From the owner of HPTuners -

the VATS option in our software only allows the engine to start (for engine swaps). it doesn't affect the operation of any other part of the security system.

if the PCM is the cause of the engine not starting then disabling VATS in the PCM will help. Usually the engine will crank, fire for 2 seconds then die because of fuel cut.

If the engine won't even crank you have another issue not related to the PCM.

It would suck to buy HPTuners and not solve anything.

Brett that is the exact problem that I am now having. The PCM is hitting fuel cut-off because it is not receiving the 50Hz signal from the BCM and disabling VATS will cure this. I already have the starter relay grounded so that it will start, but it will only run for a second. Just as mentioned in that second statement.

Looking back, I don't know how I missed page 23 where you explained that. I was thinking that you still couldn't get the car to crank like in the SOS parking lot.
