K pro issues

Post by For6374 »

So i got back my ecu from hondata about a week ago for my 02 rsx type s and i followed the installation process. Fired right up and set the calibration to a cai tune and worked fine but threw a p1259 vtec malunfction code and would not rev past 4000 rpm so stuck in limp mode. After trying to trouble shoot it i eventually ended up taking the solenoid out and cleaning it checking for any debris but was fine. Tried again with no luck. I unchecked the oil pressure switch and drove it that way but now dies while in idle sometimes. Tried uploading stock calibration and it cranks but doesnt turn over. I will be replacing the oil pressure switch in the solenoid but i have a feeling thats not the issue. Anyone have any ideas? Need answers soon need it ready for a turbo.

It sounds like you might have an oil pressure issue and the bearings have tightened up and that is why it is stalling.

Well it stalled twice and i just replaced the whole vtec solenoid so i know it has to be the ecu. I didnt have any issues with it stalling or vtec malfuntion before i sent it to hondata.

We don't change anything that would cause stalling unless it is just a tuning issue. Are you still getting error codes?

I would recommend that you try this ECU in a different working vehicle to see if the same error occurs.
