TPS sensor calibration on Kpro

Post by FastR »

I have exchanged the original intake manifold PRB with the PRC on the K20A2 (Civic EP3 (engine stock)) with a modified throttle body to 65mm . I moved the TPS sensor from the old to the new modified throttle so I suspect there is the issue.
Now I have a high idle.
The Kmanager graph shows the TPS starts at 1% and I am hoping the problem is just to reset it.

I am not a Kmanager expert so I don't know what to do to reset the TPS values keeping the actual map >> maybe save/export the existing map and then open it for a new TPS configuration but I don't know how to save the current MAP file.

I have also tried to transfer the actual map to the PC by doing online>tools>Download but it didn't work (the throttle tab in "parameters" remain disabled (grey)).

Do you have th3e calibration saved on the laptop?

If so, just save the calibration with a new name so that you can keep the old file and make changes and see what works best in this case.

Unfortunately I don't have the current file saved (how can I save it?)

I did the steps below:

1) updated KManager to the last version 461
2)turned the key on (not started) and connected KManager to the ECU (K-PRO)

3) opened the parameters windows and then the throttle tab

Unfortunately all was in grey.

I have tried also to import the current ECU file directly in the K-Manager [ online>tools>Download ] but it din't work ( throttle still in grey) so I couldn't read and upload the TPS values.

Your only option is to go to the Online, Tools menu and see if you can download the calibration that way and then save it to your computer.

I think I figured out what the problem is.
The original file uploaded to the ECU was made by an old version of K-manager.
The new updated version of K-manager is not able to transfer the data by the download option (Online, Tools menu) from the ECU to the computer so I am not able to save a copy of the current configuration and then made the TPS read.

Then there is nothing to download. If you have the calibration saved on the laptop then open from there or you will need to get it from your tuner or start with a new calibration.

I don't understand one thing: if the tuner up-loaded the calibration into the ECU why is nothing there now?

If they did not store the calibration on the K-Pro itself then it cannot be downloaded. You will need to discuss this with your tuner.

so, online>tools>upload transfer the calibration into the k-pro, instead how do you store the calibration inside k-pro?
