DON'T TELL THEM IT WAS CHIPPED...!!! Make sure all plugs (fuel rail loom etc) are correctly in place, book in saying 'no power, engine light on' and leave it at that...

x3.. :shock:

btw sounds like you have stuffed your MAP install... (green and blue cut in).. Without the chip this cut in loom will cause a constant limp mode. you can TEST by putting the chip back on (just plugging it in doesnt need power just connect the MAP loom to the main loom and plug in chip. start car and off you go???
Trying the chip in with no power to it WILL make your triton std again. This is a passthru mode designed into DPS215 as explained to me by robert... Excellent for troubleshooting ;)

Other than that take it ALL out.. (loom components) and connect the whole machine backup and give her another crank.. Although you could actually have caused a prob to SCV or similar by some terrible chance, theres a poss you just goofed the install?\

Either way HIDE THIS FACT from the dealer :!: :!:

You just have a dead car as far as they are concerned (and you probably not too happy about it) :mrgreen:

I presume you have disconnected the battery for a while to reset the ecu?
