remove which fuses to flash with SCT
I have the excalibrator 2 and i know you have to remove the fuel pump fuse but which others do you need to remove? Can someone post a picture so i can actually see which ones or a diagram of which ones to remove please. Also does the car need to be started or just "on" to flash? Is there a website with a link i can find all the information, i searched but cant find anything.
|
Ive never unplugged mine and I dont think anyone else does either.
|
does the car have to be running or just "on" or acc to flash it though? thanks for the info on not needing to remove fuses!
|
your x-cal didnt come with instructions?
you dont remove the fuses, they only tell you to remove the fuses so you dont kill your battery. i never removed the fuses.... you dont start the car you just turn to the key to the 'on' position. then you'll here your fan turn on... |
how do you know when its done tuning? Thats when the fan comes on? No it didnt come with instructions...my buddy bought it for his car but wrecked it a few days before he got it so i bought it from him. Its already been used on my car once but i need to change the tire/rim settings since i got bigger tires.
|
it will tell you on the screen when its done. it will something like PCM download complete press select or turn key off press select and your done.
|
I actually talked to someone at SCT and they said that's for older car's not 99 and above.
|
what is for the older cars? Does anybody know the proper procedure then?
|
I just bought a new X Cal2 for my 99 and in the instructions it says to pull the fuse for the fan and fuel pump. I was just going to unplug the fan, the pump wont run for long.
|
ok so you are supposed to unplug the fuel pump and fan...can you show me a picture of which fuses they are or give a detailed description please
|
Unplug the fan at the fan, forget the fuses.
|
good idea...thank you very much!!
|
You Do Not Have To Unplug Anyting!!!!
I Repeat Nothing!!! Just Hook It Up,download The Tune And Your Done!! Geez! People try and give advise and then people don't believe you WTF!! As I said before the fuse and pump are for alot older car's not 95 and up!! Your trying to make it seem harder than it is.It's so easy a Caveman could do it or even Badfish lol |
you know what do what the **** you want.....believe that jackass that says to do it the instruction way.....i cant count the times i adjusted my tune with the x-cal...the whole process takes about 5 minutes.
next time use the F'n google button and find SCT's website edit: your in the desert...wait till you have the car in front of you to try this stuff out. thats the only your going to understand. |
i unplugged those 2 fuses and i tried to tune my 98 gt and it said it wasnt reading the computer properly or something, so i put em bak in and it worked so id recommend not taking ne fuses out.
|
its just so your batt doesnt die while uploading the tune. So if you have a good batt there is no problem if yours is low well i would fix that.
