Dumb question - but you did install the device drivers, correct?

Can you read your pcm? I'm up in Toledo. I swing down to Cbus every couple months for work.

I got the ecm spy to actually boot up, so now I need to know how to load the maps and such, is there a link someone could give me to a step by step on what to do on how to reset the tps and then load new ecm info in thx guys !

Im sorry I havent used Ecmspy in years so I am probably not much help. I use different tuning software. Do you have a race map already?

First step is connecting Ecmspy to the bike and downloading the stock map.
Then cut/paste the race maps over and then upload them.
Do a TPS Reset reset.

Take a look in the "do it yourself" thread. there's a video on how to do a TPS reset or just google it. Same with loading the new maps. This sit is how I've learned everything, it's amazing. This site https://sites.google.com/site/ecmspy/ has most full maps also. Good luck [cool]

 

[vinkate]

wow great site for the maps that's cool, im still learning ill go out when I get a chance and try to plug them, do you use an easier software than ecmspy ?

 

[DcBueller84]

I just know ecmspy and megalog viewer. Ecmspy is actually not too bad just intemidating at first. All I did is read through Ecmspy tuning guide version 2 a couple times and there's a great post by Gatorbuell. If you google "Buell xb megalog, tuning" that's how I put it all together.

Columbus eh? Im up there once every few weeks or so. Im in portsmouth.

ECM spy is not bad once you get the hang of it. I would reccomend trying to reinstall the program and drivers if it reads a missing file error. Where did you download the files from? There is plenty of information on the site to get you everything you need to know.

Welcome to the site btw [up]
