Mt resets when i try start the enging

Post by Sunken »

Hi!
Now when i finished working om my my car and try to start the engine with MT 2.25 and the new firmware 0.29q2 on my Ms 2.2
When I turn the key to start the engine, MT "twinkels" On and Off (turns on and off)
What could be the problem?

After a few tries MT doesen't start anymore. I don't get any errormessage, like i don't have connection betwen MS and MT.
If i reset the firmware it works again.

Could the reason be that MS recives to little tention so that MS loses it's memory somehow?

Anyone who got an idea?

When you turn the key on MT will go "ding" and increase the reset count. This is normal. It should then show "connected" in the bottom right and you should see some real temperatures on the front page.

If this isn't what you see then please describe it in more detail.

If your fuel pump turns on/off/on/off/on/off and the fuel pump light on MT flashes then you've made a configuration error. See the faq
