Launch control & full throttle shift issues

TopMountGSR · Post by **TopMountGSR** » Thu Oct 28, 2010 3:18 am

I've used both these features on my personal cars and customer cars for quite some time, but recently, we have been having issues only on cars that use both of these features at the same time. They seem to be causing problems with each other. From a stand still, Our launch control stops working as soon as you hit the clutch and it goes strait to the full throttle shift set rpm. Not just happening on one car, all of them. We are having to setup the fts to a very high rpm set point so we can launch these cars at the track. These features are not working together as they used too. Anyone else having these issues? We do not have problems with launch control if the customer is not using full throttle shift (isn't wired in or enabled). Thanks for your time, Dk

I had a similar issue yesterday. I'm using a single user license. In my case, the car would use launch control as a rev limiter. If I had the rev limiter set at 7000, and launch control at 6000, it would rev cut at 6000 in any gear. Not sure if it was related to full throttle shifting, I didn't test it. I had to redo a new cal, and problem solved.

I found sometimes that makin a fresh CAL fixes unexplainable things after updates.

I myself don't believe the 'upload calibration' button exists; instead I ritually push 'upload base ROM and calibration' when I first connect eCtune back in my car. Hope it helps everyone

. USB2.0 is fast enough it's not a hinderance in doing so.

What inputs are you using? And what inputs is Bugermass using?

I think that I have the same problem and I am using both features togeher. It hits cut at fts rpm point and I thought that my clutch pedal switch is bad but when I checked it was ok.
