Defective Emanage?

I installed the emanage over 2 days time. The thing continuously flashes red and my CEL comes on telling me it's an issue with my air flow meter.

The emanage is set exactly to how the manual says. With the 3 rotary switches set to what people on this site use. I reopened the case 3 times to make sure and everything is the way it's supposed to be. I disconnect the 2 vtec wires, 2 map wires, and the vtm wire and put those back to stock. So the emanage is basically acting as only a monitor just so I can diagnose this issue later.

The emanage is still blinking red saying there's something wrong with a sensor that I'm not even using. It isn't checked off in the support tool software, and the emanage is still logging everything correctly.

What could cause this problem? Bad directions from greddy on jumper settings?

It's hard to tell you anything without the code thats blinking from the Emanage, and without the code from the ECU.

Well - you contradict yourself. First you say you use the manual settings, than say you use the settings that people on here have used - which is it, because I can assure you the settings in the manual are incorrect for our car.....

A friend of mine had a defective emanage, so it is possible.

I set the jumpers according to the manual. But I set the rotary switches according to what you said.

That would be your problem. You have to set the jumpers to what I said earlier, and you will have no problems....

You can't set the jumpers and rotary switches to different settings because the Emanage is expecting one thing, and getting another. As I said before, its hard programmed to work for certain vehicles only.....if you try different settings it will give an error code, as you've seen.

what do I change the jumpers to then? It's set for VTEC. Should I be disabling VTEC?

I just checked the other post again... You never said anythin bout the jumpers. My rotary switches are set to 4-8-C and the jumpers to VTEC. Anything else? It was idling like crap before.

Is this the post you're referring to: http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/sh...hlight=emanage

If so - I tell you exactly what jumpers I am using.

Other things to check - make sure the A.A.V. ***** are all 0, make sure your injector wiring is correct, make sure your ignition harness wiring is correct - heck make sure all your wiring is correct. Don't go off of the wiring diagram on here, use the one from the Helm manual - its accurate...
